Interesting comments from an attendee at the Beck rally: works for gov't as SWAT officer.
"a SWAT team police officer from Chesapeake Beach, Md. He said he wants government to stay out of people's lives. He acknowledged that he works for government, but said it's "a part of government that helps people when they are in trouble."

4. Let's start by cutting his position
If he wants to have smaller government, he can volunteer to quit working for the government.


Wonder what he would say to that suggestion?

Doh!
