Recess Rally Corpus Christi, TX (video & pictures included)
Having a hard time getting http://txskirt.com to post, so thought I'd post here.
I was at the Corpus Christi, TX Recess Rally in front of Congressman Solomon Ortiz' office. About 300 people braved the 100+ mid-day heat to tell Washington to stop spending our money. About 50 eventually people showed up to show their support for socialized healthcare. We mixed it up pretty good, and there were several spirited debates, but there was no violence or purple shirts.
Here is some video I shot from my iPhone:

Here's what the opposition looked like when the rally began:

This on is almost 3 minutes long. The interesting part happens at the end. Some lib comes up and starts trying to argue with the wheelchair bound vet. The vet shuts him down. Then my phone died--RATS!
