        I think that's a great idea. I'll strap one on when the teabag express rolls through texas, it would be great fun watching the balls drop out of their mouths when they learn I'm there to oppose them!

      From the website homepage:
      ...Children ages 8 to 18 are encouraged to particpate

      First, they don't know how to spell

      and these are the same neo cons that believe President Obama's school speech is a youth indoctrination speech.

      Send your kids to a red neck rally, but keep them out of school so they won't here the presidents message. No wonder they can't spell!

      West Virginia...? Hmmmm...isn't that the place where in the primaries even a good number of Democrats said in a poll they wouldn't vote for an African American? Great place for you, Sean...you'll fit right in.

      "The Rally is going to be held on a previous surface mine, just south of Logan, West Virginia."

      "Surface mine" of course being coal industry jargon for "mountaintop removal."

      "Then the coal company came with the world's largest shovel

      And they tortured the timber and stripped all the land

      Well, they dug for their coal till the land was forsaken

      Then they wrote it all down as the progress of man."

        The coal industry says the land's perfectly safe, and would they say that if it wasn't true? After all, just look at their history...

      Well, will this event make any other news outlet's coverage besides Fox? If that many people show up, it might. Yes, we do have a lot of coal, but presently, it isn't clean technology. It would be nice if it were.

      Hannity has been spouting off about big sold out 100,000 people Friends of America rally on labor day,LABOR UNION DAY.They gonna get ten's of thousands of union coal miners and their families,at a Hannity anti-union rally.I do not think this is going to be as big an event as they make it out to be. A big deal is being made about President Obama's stay in school message,to recruit an audience for this garbage.It should be un-interesting.
