"Bushville" set up near RNC site

More at http://www.theuptake.org. Recalling "Hoovervilles" from the great depression, a tent city dubbed "Bushville" has sprung up in a park not too far away from the site of the Republican National Convention in St. Paul. People at Bushville are bracing for a police raid at 11pm when the park closes. A crew of video journalists who document police abuses are at the park recording what happens after 11pm.

The camp has been erected by the Poor People's Economic Human Rights Campaign (PPEHRC) and is there to accommodate poor and homeless people arriving in the Twin Cities to protest and be a visible representation of poverty in the US during the RNC.

Welcome to the new Great Depression.

Maybe for you but my standard rose for the last 20 years. Look for a new line of work.

Go back to sleep uncle Tom. Your mind has been subverted by the hollywood media.

As long as you think the parties are both the same, the enemy has removed you from the playing field.

The Middle Class of America has been loosing ground for years! America's standard of living has been in decline since the 1970s.

If you don't know by now that democrats and republicans are in bed together, your a hopeless case. Democrats give lip service to poor and lower middle class people so they at times get a pass. Just look at Bush and Obama, Obama broke promises yet where is the outrage? Yet both bush and obama have the same ultimate goals. Big Business and Foreign Policies are the same for O and B. With more power for Gov. less Liberty for People. I think YOU should grow up or rather Wake Up.

No, I think they mean all huMANs. The word man stands for human, like woMAN. I guess you need to restructure the entire english language also. You are a real piece of work.

Must be a product of the secular sabbatage going on in public schools.

I need to start worshiping you because you apparently are much wiser than God. Did you also create yourself? Wow! Your ideas are very impressive. I'd love to hear the rest of the secrets of life from you. I always wondered where humans came from. I guess you already know that also.

[MrTabby5000]

no,because that excludes women.

[MrTabby5000]

just read jesus statements in the NT,he stated he was supposed to come back 1900 years ago and he didnt come back back then,so therefore it must be a fairy tale.

So are you going to tell me your secret clue on how you know there is no God? Thats what I really want to know.
