"Stand With Gibson Guitars: Rally Planned For Oct. 8

Lisa Mei Norton Sep 27, 2011 5:05 AM - Show original item

So here we are ten months after the "shellacking" that took place during the November 2010 elections, thanks in large part to the TEA Party movement, and now the left-wing, State-run, "lamestream media" would have you believe the TEA Party is fizzling out – asserting the power of the conservative movement is waning.

Don't they wish.

On October 8, from 2-4PM, several 9/12, TEA Party, and conservative/patriot organizations will unite in an "unprecedented" show of support for one of this country's great American companies, Gibson Guitars at a "We Stand With Gibson" rally at the Scoreboard Bar & Grill parking lot in Nashville, TN.

For those who don't tune in to Fox News Channel, read conservative blogs, or listen to conservative talk radio, chances are you are not even aware of what happened to Gibson Guitars last month when Federal agents raided their offices and factories in Nashville and Memphis, semi-automatic weapons drawn, clearing out all employees and confiscating guitars, supplies, files, computers, etc.

What was their alleged crime, you ask? Using "illegal" wood in their products. Isn't it odd how nobody has even been indicted on any charges?

As I discussed in my last BigDawg spotlight piece on fellow BigDawg'er, Nathan Picard, seems the only real "crime" here is Gibson's CEO, Henry Juszkiewicz, is a Republican donor. The feds have basically told Mr. Juszkiewicz that all of this "would go away" if they outsource their jobs to Madagascar. Say what?

Meanwhile, POTUS is making the rounds touting his so-called "jobs bill"…demanding Congress "pass this bill" (90 times in 5 speeches)…. But do keep sending those jobs overseas.

If this doesn't smack of gestapo-like tactics, y'all are still asleep. It's time to wake up and smell the tyranny."
