I would like to know why photos and a big news spread wasn't done by the News-Sun. Is the News-Sun just a little too liberal to cover a conservative event? If true, then you don't chase the news, you are manipulating it and manipulating your readers.

"Why protest, it is going to take more then a few months to clean up the mess caused by Bush and Cheny."

This is how we got into this mess to begin with! Americans got lazy, kicked back in front of our TV sets, and paid no attention while our freedom and economic prosperity was incrementally stolen away by a government more concerned with its own power than the representation of its people. Bush Cheney, Obama, Biden and previous administrations over the past 75 years are equally culpable.

Gov't takes your money and you get gov't crumbs to live on.
They want you broke because they will control you.

The gov't is no longer American, we have a African colonel as president.
