In the video below Maddow does a detailed analysis of the website www.recessrally.com. Maddow looks into the prominent sponsors of the Recess Rally and demonstrates just how much the organization is a result of Republican operatives and elitists as opposed to your "average Joe middle class American."
As Maddow points out, some of the listed supporters of Recess Rally include Michelle Malkin a noted conservative Fox News commentator, a former speech writer for George Bush, a regional field director Bush-Cheney 04, a former Washington D.C. lobbyist, the former Director of the Illinois Republican party, the funder of the swift boat ads attacking John Kerry, and finally the owner of the largest privately-held oil company in America. These are the "middle class Americans" bringing you the "grassroots" protests.
As a side note at the beginning of the video Maddow explains how end of life consultations are actually not that controversial and not merely a Democratic idea. It turns out both parties have been supporting the ability of people to make living wills for over twenty years without controversy. It is only now that Republicans are trying to take the non-controversial issue to try and scare old people into believing they will be euthanized.
