“No More Pork!”
Can’t put lipstick on a pig . . .
An unexpected guest of honor!
Approximately 500-750 people showed up to the state capitol in Denver to say: “No More Pork!”
More from Michelle Malkin, the great El Marco, and wall-to-wall coverage from Peoples Press Collective. Face the State has a recap and slideshow, and Free Colorado has even more photos and audio/transcript of the rally.
While the videos are uploaded to YouTube (video of every speaker will be available shortly), here are scenes from the raucous anti-stimulus rally:
