Student Group Cozies Up to Communists at “One Nation Working Together” Rally
Taken from NewsReal Blog on October 5th, 2010: Having watched both Glenn Beck’s “Restoring Honor” Rally and its counterpart, “One Nation Working Together,” I am not surprised that organized student groups chose to align themselves with communists in the latter.
