The Washington Post ran an article about the protesters, saying their waves of attack will be at noon today (an hour ago) and at 5 pm, when many CPAC-ers will be heading from the conference hotel at the Marriott to their own hotels throughout DC.
Their stated goal: “Create as much non-violent resistance as possible, and make this a conference the attendees will never forget.”This is the OccupyDC's description of CPAC:
Spectacles will include imperialist topics such as “From Fidel to Chavez: How Do We Stop the Resurgence of Socialism in Latin America?”, “Is the ‘Arab Spring’ Good or Bad for America?” and frequent bloviation on “American exceptionalism.” Openly racist discourses will be given on “The Failure of Multiculturalism: How the pursuit of diversity is weakening the American Identity” and “Islamic Law in America: How the Obama Justice Department Is Selling Us Out.” The conference will also glorify the role of money in politics in talks such as “How to Raise Money… the Easy Way,” “Citizens United Productions Hosts Blogger Briefing” and “Fundraising Secrets from the Billion $ Man.”
