Some comic relief. If you want a good laugh read Shaw's comment to lisa in the previous post comments section, you'll pee your pants!! Anyway....This rightwinger has posted a piece to teabaggers who show up to Glenn Becks "big speech", how to get around in Washington DC and how to avoid the boogey man. Don't go venturing into the outskirts of DC, you might run into some minorities, some ANGRY minorities! LOL. Clarence Page said it sounded like satire!
Here's the blog posting the visitors guide to the rally,
Safety and Mores
DC's population includes refugees from every country, as the families of embassy staffs of third world countries tend to stay in DC whenever a revolution in their homeland means that anyone in their family would be in danger if they went back. Most taxi drivers and many waiters/waitresses (especially in local coffee shops like the Bread and Chocolate chain) are immigrants, frequently from east Africa or Arab countries. As a rule, African immigrants do not like for you to assume they are African Americans and especially do not like for you to guess they are from a neighboring country (e.g. Eritrea, Ethiopia, Somalia) with whom they may have political or military tensions. It's rare to meet anyone who gets really offended, but you can still be aware of the issue.
Many parts of DC are safe beyond the areas I will list here, but why chance it if you don't know where you are?
If you are on the subway stay on the Red line between Union Station and Shady Grove, Maryland. If you are on the Blue or Orange line do not go past Eastern Market (Capitol Hill) toward the Potomac Avenue stop and beyond; stay in NW DC and points in Virginia. Do not use the Green line or the Yellow line. These rules are even more important at night. There is of course nothing wrong with many other areas; but you don't know where you are, so you should not explore them.
If on foot or in a cab or bus, stay in Bethesda, Arlington (preferably north Arlington), Crystal City, Falls Church, Annandale, or Alexandria, or in DC only in northwest DC west (i.e. larger street numbers) of 14th or 16th streets, or if on Capitol Hill only in SE Capitol Hill (zip 20003) between 1st and 8th Streets, not farther out than 8th (e.g. 9th, 10th etc). (Or stay on the Mall and at the various monuments.) Again there are many other lovely places, from the Catholic University of America to Silver Spring, Maryland. But you don't know where you are so you cannot go, especially at night, unless you take me with you.

I deleted the addresses they offered, how rude to post these addresses and then say go protest in front of their homes! These teabaggers are disgusting!
Now a bit of info about Becks "big(or not) speech"
Washington — Glenn Beck says he didn't intend to schedule Saturday's "Restoring Honor" rally in front of the Lincoln Memorial on the anniversary of Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech. But it's a convergence of time and place that the demonstrative political talk-show host describes as "divine providence."
Some have used other words.
Civil-rights leaders aligned with Democrats are recoiling at the Fox News superpundit's plan to gather his faithful on the same steps where King delivered his call for racial justice. They're planning their own march in honor of the speech and criticizing Beck for trying to "hijack" King's legacy.
Beck says, this has nothing to do with politics. (HA!!)
"This has everything to do with, 'Who are we?' " he says, over an earnest soundtrack of soft piano, in a video promotion of the rally posted on his website. "There is profound change happening in America, and there is a window of opportunity that comes in the lifespan of every republic, every civilization, a window of opportunity to reach for that brass ring or to miss it. We're not the people that we've allowed ourselves to become."
Beck is hoping for a crowd of more than 100,000. (HA!)
There was an estimated 250,000 at King's 1963 address.
Highlighting what they see as Beck's hypocrisy, the Rev. Al Sharpton and other civil-rights leaders have decided to hold their own rally.
Sharpton's National Action Network, the National Urban League and the NAACP are planning to march from a Washington, D.C., high school to the site of a planned King memorial, just blocks from the Lincoln Memorial.
The original emphasis of their gathering was on closing educational disparities, and Education Secretary Arne Duncan is among those scheduled to participate. But recently, the groups' leaders have focused on Beck and Palin as philosophical opposites of King's supporters.
"In '63, they went to Washington for a strong national government to protect civil rights," Sharpton said in an interview. "He and Palin are going there for a weak national government and to advocate state rights."
Wow what a piece of crap Beck is! If you are a Beck lover of course then you will think this rally/speech is something of a divine intervention. But what it really is, is a man who craves your undivided attention so he can steal your money!

thanks RZ, I missed that. Here's a piece of it...
RedState.com’s Erick Erickson said Beck is going to have to “be careful” or his gimmicks are “going to start becoming a punchline.”
Fox executive Bill Shine told Politico that “there is no organized promotion planned for the rally on Fox News and the network has nothing to do with it.” But as Media Matters notes, Fox has in fact been the “unofficial corporate sponsor” of Beck’s event. Perhaps that’s why Beck is expecting such a high turnout, recently suggesting that it will be similar in size to President Obama’s inauguration. “This will be a thing that your children will remember,” he has said. “I expect a miracle on 8/28.” Organizers are anticipating 300,000 participants. The country anxiously awaits.
Yes I am anxiously waiting to see the pictures of the HUGE crowds on Fox news...LOLOL!! What a conceited moron, as big as Obama's inauguration! Good lord how stupid can you be???!!!
Will the elected Dems in DC call him out or let him have credibility. Let's see how many show for this guy. There's a lot of people of color around there-have a feeling there won't be many black faces seen-ya think.
i'm sure all the people living outside the small area in which the teabaggers have been told to remain are grateful that their neighborhoods won't be tainted by those asswipes who think glenn blechhh is anything other than the brainless pile of shit he is.
As a rule, African immigrants do not like for you to assume they are African Americans and especially do not like for you to guess they are from a neighboring country (e.g. Eritrea, Ethiopia, Somalia)
The writer missed an opportunity to remind the teabaggers that it's even more offensive to guess that a person from Hawaii is actually from Kenya.
We're not the people that we've allowed ourselves to become.
Huh? If we're not those people, then obviously we haven't become those people.....oh, never mind.
Forget Beck's rally -- two weeks later there will be a better event to celebrate.
Dang! I forgot about this!

"It's because of race baiter's like you"
Lisa....that is a low blow even by your standards. That's a cheap shot, and to be frank, inexcusable.
hey OneFly, Infidel, Nonnie and Hugh! Thanks for the comments. Infidel I'll check out that link. OneFly I would guess all the blacks will be at the march with Al Sharpton, the REAL march for Americans and their civil rights, and to remember Martin Luther King also, That's where the real crowds will be! The rest of the DC visitors can waste their time listening to the moron Beckster, damn what a disgrace he is!
lisa when a troll visits a blog and leaves a comment, that should be enough. But you want to keep coming back and think people want to have a conversation with you, WE DO NOT!!! So enough is enough!!
This has been about Beck since day one. It is the launch for his, here is our plan to do whatever, whenever to make the world in our image rally. If it's not about politics, why is Bible Spice being paid to speak there. She has to be the most political animal there is right now.
I read that they have to go through a bigger red section because their buses don't go right into that little blue puddle.
I just said this somewhere else this morning. Is anyone else getting the irony here of them having to avoid "teh blakz peeple" when there is a march commemorating one of the leaders of the civil rights movement. The leader that the Beckerheads are trying to claim as one of their own? One other thing, they can now claim diversity in the crowds if some of Sharpton's group happens to walk by to get to his march.
My best part though, yes it gets better, it really does. I don't know if any of you know but Dupont Circle is like the Castro district of DC. It has been advised they go to Dupont to make their way to the altar of Beck and SWMNBN** the Tundra Twit. So they could actually rub elbows with, *GASP, the gheyz and teh blakz. It will be Armageddon for them.
**She who must not be named, I know you know who she is by my use of Tundra Twit, so I won't mention the name.
hey Jess, thanks for all the comments! Here's what conservativeguy says in his visitors guide, it's where he has all the eateries listed...
Pasha Bistro
1523 17th Street NW
Washington DC
tasty hamburgers and middle eastern food; free wifi; indoor & outdoor seating
(Dupont Circle, gay area)
[Dupont Circle metro, Red line]
LOL, I guess they all better avoid that area
My comment about Al Sharpton and MLK commemoration sounded strange, it could be misconstrued. Surely you all know I wasn't being disrespectful. Yes, the crowds WILL be at Rev.Sharptons march.
@Sue, I hadn't been here for a few days and lo and behold, when I come back my best friend Lisa is here spouting her blabbity blah. She is my comic relief on some blogs I come across. Many comments can be made when you are answering Lisa. It's like a neverending supply of words come out of my mouth for her. Some of them, are even nice words.
Can't seem to see where you thought you were being disrespectful though. You said the march with Al Sharpton would have the black people there, which is the truth. He is also going to get whites, Hispanics and other ethnicities. Guess what the make up of the Beckerhead's rally will be. AYUP, crusty old, teabagging white people** wearing flags as tee shirts and tri cornered hats, carrying badly spelled signs, that have been bussed in by people like Freedomworks and Americans For Prosperity, you know, pretty much the grass roots (said with dripping sarcasm and an eye roll here)
**Not to be confused with enlightened older people, who are pretty much anything goes and love to be inclusive.
I just thought the way I said "and to remember MLK also", sounded like an afterthought, like "OH yea, don't forget MLK"! You know what I mean! I hate typing because it comes across so wrong sometimes! :-)
crusty old, teabagging white people** wearing flags as tee shirts
translation-Die old people make room for the young Marxist brainwashed masses
Maybe if Beck's tour was called Hope and Change it would draw more deperados so they can witness the second coming of their fictional savior.
"blah,blah,blah my teacher turned me into a blathering idiot. "
(Insert own joke ___________________).
Maybe you should go to a Tea Party and tell all the
veterans,doctors,teachers.mothers,fathers,police and fire fighters there how you trashed them on your blog and what you think about them.
Geez, Lisa - you're turning into a real intellectual.
That's all you got Leslie? Wow how intelligent.
@ Lisa, Beck is trying his hardest to be the savior to these people himself. You honestly don't believe this is about them do you? Really you do, that's really pathetic. He's like Jim Jones, minus the Kool aid but give him time, he'll mix some up and let them all drink it. Dude is convinced he is on a mission from God, and he isn't even a Blues Brother or getting a band together for the day.
In your words, tell me what a Marxist is and how this would relate to Hope and Change. No Googling, no Binging, no asking someone else for Cliff's notes. In YOUR words, share with all of us, your definition of a Marxist.
Where you get die old people from what I said is your own projection. Do these old people know you want them to die? I said, these people dress like that because that is how they have been shown on the television. I'm not making that up, really, the pictures come through this little box, it's not little people I have in a box in my living room honest. If I were to say, hmm, when you go see these old people dressed in flags, which is a whole other offense against fashion by the way, and I wish they would die so that I can be a brainwashed Marxist then I could see your point.
Right now the only point I am imagining, is the one on top of your head wearing the tin foil hat, that I do believe you have on a little too tight. Might want to loosen it up some, let some different thoughts pass through the aluminum. Remember lefty loosy, righty tighty will fix that hat for you. Just saying is all.
Maybe you should go to a Tea Party and tell all the

@ Lisa, oh yeah because all the baggers are about getting different viewpoints aren't they? More than half of them don't even work anymore. You've seen the signs, don't take my Medicare. Hint, if you are on Medicare you probably don't work for various reasons. Old age being the most prominent and if you have seen the baggers, they are all for the most part elderly blue hairs being bussed in.
The real comedy is that Glenn Beck even knows where DC is.
I don't care about your teabagger life lisa. I have told you before this is not your personal chatroom, GET YOUR OWN FUCKIN BLOG!!
Jess and anyone else who talks to lisa, please don't take this personal, it's just I can't stomach her after her 20th comment. She uses my blog for her personal conversations and doesn't do that to anyone else. She needs to find a new home, moderation has to be on til she does. I'll be forced to shoot her otherwise! :-)
Sue - some guns for you :-)

These ignorant tea bagging sheep will do whatever they're told by their right wing shepherds.
Their tactic is to get a bunch of these deluded fools yelling in front of someone's house. Or a court house or government building of some type. Then have cameras ready when authorities have to come in and shoo them away.
They all cry "Freedom of Speech! Freedom of Assemly! Police state! Police brutality!"
Fucking moronic lambs is what they are. They piss me off almost as much as comment moderation.
@Sue, she used to do that over at anothe place I go also. Never on topic and we would try and steer her in the right direction. Hey, it's your virtual home here, you can kick out whoever, whenever for any reason you want. Don't shoot her, for one, it's a waste of a bullet(not worth it) and most importantly you would go to jail and wouldn't be able to blog.
w-dervish, your comment was under spam and I clicked that it was NOT SPAM but it deleted it instead of moving it to moderation. Please comment again!
Jess I lose all patience after a bit when she tries to take hold of the whole thread. She is a very lonely old teabagger!
Truth I hate moderation too, especially when I forget to have the comments go to my inbox! lisa is going wild, shes left 4 comments since moderation and can't understand why I won't let her blather here!
Boomer, LOL!
Well, the loon has dropped by my blog lately. I'm not going to use moderation but will delete her from the get-go. I think that's what you have to do with rude stupid people like her. She has no right to invade peoples' blogs like she/they do - 20 times a day 7 days a week.
Leslie I hate moderation but I can't sit here all day. She'll get tired soon. She just left an anonymous comment and it had SEIU and ACORN in it, DUH lisa you are a fuckin wacko!!!
She might get tired now but as soon as you turn it off she'll be right back. It's like she has radar. I think she's just an ill-mannered twit.
I know Leslie, she's done it time and time again. But guess what Lisa/Mal has her/his own new blog!!
Here's the link...
http://lisa-whosyourdaddy.blogspot.com/
Mal even commented then deleted himself! LOL
I'm gonna be away all day tomorrow. By tomorrow night or over the weekend I'll have a new post up anyway. Don't miss me too much...
@ Sue Oh and she quoted little old me. I am so humbled I don't know what to do with myself.
The MSNBC spin is entertaining.
It would have been more credible if Keith, Rachel and Chris had done the piece wandering poor neighborhoods after dark.
For those of you who have never ventured beyond the comfy confines of your own little neighborhoods, there are places where it is dangerous to be an outsider, and some where even people who live there are in danger. These places are almost exclusively run by liberals, btw.
In my military days I had friends from DC, some from very bad neighborhoods, and they would definitely not recommend going for a stroll there.
More mindless blather from the incoherent left.
I left a comment.
I think everyone on your blog roll and mine should bombard her, forcing her to turn on Moderation. Wonder if she and Mal are a couple.
Beck has called his Rally Restoring Honor and Taking Back the Civil Rights Movement. And from whom does Beck need to take back the civil rights movement? And at what point does Glenn Beck feel America Lost Honor? Why from Martin Luther King Jr. when he spoke in Washington DC.
Glenn Beck's and the Conservative Tearrorists flag is the battle standard of the Confederacy.
mr. lisa showed how stupid he is yet again,
For those of you who have never ventured beyond the comfy confines of your own little neighborhoods, there are places where it is dangerous to be an outsider, and some where even people who live there are in danger. These places are almost exclusively run by liberals, btw.
This is the most idiotic thing you've ever posted, and you're a master at idiocy.
Go down where I come from. Per capita, it's always in the top 5 most murderous places in America. And when you leave there, go to the 11 counties in southern Illinois known as "Little Egypt." That's also a damn good place to get yourself shot up.
And then find me the "liberals" that "run" these places, genius.
