A small group calling itself "Billionaires for Wealthcare" had a ball at 9/12--it wasn't reported much, but this rag-tag group put up their own little "demonstration" during 9/12 which I got a kick out of:

They're a small, silly group of street performers who try to bring attention to what's really happening with these "teabag" rallies, and they make me giggle...

...not that they have any impact at all, or even that the crowds they entertain have the slightest idea what they're saying...

These look like the guys who were "Billionaires for Bush"

Clever.

I just think it's neat that SOMEBODY is willing to stand up and tell it like it is in the face of all those ignorant pawns who are just venting their anger at...who knows what?...and do it in a humorous manner. I also get a kick out of the fact that many of the protesters didn't "get it".

Ignorant pawns, yes, but of whom?

If you don't think that the tea-party disrupters and the 9/12 march and the tea-bag bullshit is mostly ignorant people being used by the insurance companies, Big Pharm and other well-financed organizations, you haven't been paying attention, sorry. I'm sure there's manipulation on the left, but it's nothing like what's happening on the right.

And what's on the right is dangerous and scary, moreso than anything I've ever seen on left OR right in my lifetime.

And liberals wonder why, everyone else calls them elitists?

Because it's better than the alternative?

Both parties work for TPTB, and the opposition is always orchestrated to look ridiculous and be totally ineffectual and the voters of both sides follow like sheep.

Nothing else happening here, move it along.
