About Us

Photobucket
This blog is written by a group of liberal patriots who aren't quite as pissed off as they were a couple of years ago, but aren't taking anything for granted, either. We share a fierce dedication to the Constitution - the only words ever put to paper worth dying for, and we'll argue it's finer liberal points with anyone.

We exist to remind y'all that America was founded on four boxes:
  • The Soapbox
  • The Ballot Box
  • The Jury Box
  • The Ammo Box
They should be used in that order. This is our soapbox.

The Billionaires for Wealthcare were in KC today

They took a break from shopping on the Plaza to convene at the Nichols Fountain to protest those protesting the status quo. They are doing just fine, thank you, and they don't want to keep things just the way they are if it's all the same to you.

I like the Billionaires for Wealthcare. They always have professional signs that are easy to read as folks zip past on their way to Aldo Shoes or Tommy Bahama - or perhaps they're late meeting someone at the Classic Cup. Where ever they're headed, they have no time for headscratching over protest signs! They're busy! Plaza people do not have time to stop and read your scrawl! Professional signs with bold block letters are much preferable, and convey a more responsible message. "We have it together enough to have legible protest signs. Now really! Who, pray tell, are you going to believe? Us, or those unwashed heathens over there with the balloon-letters freehanded on posterboard?"

{{Big hugs to my friend Anne, from whom I flat-out stole the picture from her Twitter feed!}}

Big hugs right back atcha, BG! (0.00 / 0)
I will email you the rest of the photos. It really was a fabulous day and it got even better when we found out the teabaggers were protesting in front of channel 41, which happens to be only two blocks from where the billionaires were! So of course we went over to their rally to thank them for supporting the status quo and keeping billionaires wealthy.

We took our bullhorn and loudly expressed our gratitude to the common people whose premium dollars are buying yachts and mansions for deserving insurance company executives. The best response we got from them was "BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH".

I'm not making that up. They actually used their bullhorn to chant at us "BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH".


Excellent! (0.00 / 0)
Go get the entire scoop, and lots more pictures, here!

When you get raptured, can I have your car?

You know what? (0.00 / 0)
I'll bet they know how to spell "Morons" too.  I've been following this group as best I can... appreciate this post and BG, I hope you post more of the pics when you get them.

Too bad they can't do a demo in front of Pig Boy's Palm Beach mansion.

The few with so much will steal the little of so many that the many little people will have nothing left.  Fascism pure and simple.
