I wonder how this will turn out? Look at the list of Obama friendly orgs participating


The NAACP, 1199 SEIU, the National Council of La Raza, Green for All, Center for Community Change and the United States Student Association initiated this campaign, and more than 150 other national and local groups have already signed on.

The growing list of participating organizations includes United for Peace and Justice, Veterans For Peace, Peace Action, US Labor Against the War, Code Pink, Voices for Creative Nonviolence, Progressive Democrats of America, United National Antiwar Committee, National Campaign for Nonviolent Resistance and other peace groups.

Labor participation includes the AFL-CIO, AFT, SEIU, CWA, Transport Workers Union, Unite/HERE, UFCW and others.

Some of the other national organizations that are part of this effort are: USAction, Rainbow/PUSH Coalition, Campaign for America’s Future, National Action Network, Center for American Progress, Jewish Funds for Justice.

Anyone planning on going to watch, or whatever?

Where have these socialist groups been for the last 7 years?

This is the first I've heard of this. It looks like something CFL should be involved in.

Is there a single conservative group participating?

This is hardly an antiwar rally; it's a pro-democrat, progressive, anti-tea party rally.

I thought they were calling this the "Anti-Glenn Beck Rally". It's a response to the 8/28 "Restoring Honor" rally.

With racist organisations like the NAACP, La Raza and the SEIU, I'm not sure one should want to be associated with that rally.

Yeah really. God forbid somebody 'compromises' their ethics to help put an end to all this pain, loss of treasure, and shows the world the United States is not really an evil fascist country hell bent on killing anyone who doesn't agree with its empire building efforts.

It would be cool if we could get some tea party groups to participate

It also sounds like a good place to pass out literature comparing Obama to Bush.

Or maybe have a flier with three columns for comparison issue-by-issue: Bush, Obama, and Ron Paul.

funny that this should show up on RPF, I just wrote a blog post about it on YAL's Blogs (http://www.yaliberty.org/posts/a-plea-to-the-current-peace-movement). Like I stated in my post, its sad when groups supposedly being antiwar puts ending the war as 3rd in their list of priorities for a march
