Obama’s Socialist Allies and Policies – A Meeting of the Ideals

There are two great posts at KeyWikiBlog that you need to hop over and read:

Farrakan and Pro-Obama Socialists Confer in Chicago

Key excerpt:

Several key figures on the black left and Louis Farrakan of the Nation of Islam, gathered Saturday, March 20, 2010 for the “We Count! The Black Agenda is the American Agenda” Conference in Chicago.

The conversation was moderated by Tavis Smiley. Invited panelists included former Obama adviser Cornel West and Michael Eric Dyson, both of Democratic Socialists of America, current senior Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett, leftist Jesse Jackson, Louis Farrakhan, far left California Congresswoman Barbara Lee, Tom Burrell, Marc Morial, Ben Jealous of the NAACP and the ever controversial Al Sharpton.

Deliberately Bankrupt Medicaid to bring about Socialized Health Care?

and…

Key excerpt:

Purposefully create economic chaos and de-stabilize millions of lives to pursue an ideological ideal?

Who would would propose such madness?

Chris Maisano would.

What do both have as a common thread? Radical extremism and socialism… Obama’s favorite recipe. Make sure you read them all the way through and make KeyWikiBlog a daily visit. You just can’t make this crap up…

Tea Party Express to Feature Challengers to Bob Bennett at Salt Lake Rally

The Tea Party Express has a message for Utah Senator, Bob Bennett: our country deserves better.

Today at the Tea Party Express rally in Salt Lake City, conservative challengers to Bennett will be provided a platform to speak to the crowd and provide voters an alternative to Bennett.

“We’ve said all along that the problem in Washington is one of both Republicans and Democrats, and Bob Bennett is the epitome of the establishment mentality that has led this country astray,” said Mark Williams, Chairman of the Tea Party Express.

Here are the details on the Tea Party Express Salt Lake City rally:

SALT LAKE CITY: TUESDAY, MARCH 30 – 2:00 PM

Utah State Capitol
350 N Main Street
Salt Lake City, UT

Tea Party Express III: Just Vote Them Out national tour kicked off this weekend in Searchlight, NV where one of the largest political gatherings in Nevada history took place. The Tea Party Express will hold 44 tea party rallies across the nation, ending in Washington, D.C. for the Tax Day Tea Party on April 15th.

Update: From Andrea Shea King

Good Morning from Provo, Utah!

This is what I saw from my hotel room when I awoke this morning:

First Light – Provo, Utah

When we came in last night it was dark. So imagine my surprise to awake and see at first light the sight of these mountains looming in front of me. Wow!

Here’s another shot taken a little later:

I finally have a chance to enjoy uninterrupted internet service here at the hotel, and I’m taking full advantage of it, getting caught up on emails, and visiting sites like Doug Gibbs’ who has a terrific — and funny – write up about the rally in Searchlight. Be sure to go over and read it.

Time to get moving — the Blue Bus call is coming up fast to take us to our first Tea Party Express III rally this morning. More later!

I need a bail out! Won’t you rescue me! I need a bail out! Somebody help me please! – Lyrics from The Rivoli Revue’s Kay and Ron’s “The Bailout Song”, performed at the rallies.
