Democrats Hold Anti-War Rally in Moscow By Jeff Gannon GOPUSA News April 1, 2003

(GOPUSA News) -- The Moscow Times on Monday featured an article about an anti-war rally in the Russian capital. The Saturday afternoon demonstration by 6,000 people, mostly Communists, included a handful of Americans. The newspaper reported that a group called Democrats Abroad organized the event.

On its website, Democrats Abroad (www.democratsabroad.org) calls itself "The official Democratic Party organization for some six million American citizens who live outside the United States." Their stated mission is: "We work to support the aims and principles of the Democratic Party. We are recognized as a "state" committee by the Democratic National Committee and are represented on the DNC by eight members."

The Moscow Times described the demonstration as "a mass of red flags and 'Yankee Go Home' badge-wearing demonstrators." Included in that "mass" was a small group of Americans who also oppose their government's war in Iraq.

The newspaper quotes Mark Sleboda, 28, a student at the Moscow State Institute of International Relations, or MGIMO, and a former N.C.O. officer in the U.S. Navy. "What we are doing is unlawful. We support our troops, but the only way to support them is to bring them home alive," Sleboda said.

The Times quotes Tanya Abrams, an international relations student on a U.S. government fellowship to MGIMO, as saying of U.S. President George W. Bush, "He's ignoring the will of the people. He can't convince anyone in the world except for Britain. I'm embarrassed to be an American."

Calls by GOPUSA News to the Democratic National Committee for comment were not returned.

We are recognized as a "state" committee by the Democratic National Committee and are represented on the DNC by eight members."

We shouldn't refer to them as peacenicks or protestors. We need to start referring to them as they are - The "Anti-American Democrat rallies".
We've forgotten to use the word "Democrat". That's really the most important part of all this anti-Bush stuff.

Where do they find this stuff? Are they really that blind?
They have no idea they're considered a small minority of extremist losers?
How can they miss what's going on around them like that?
These kooks are really, really, dumb people.

Why are American taxpayers financing that woman's studies at an (it's no big secret) institution where they are still teaching the benefits and practices of international Marxism?

If you don't support the mission you don't support them troops.

Ms. Abrams - Apparently you aren't so "embarrassed" that you would stop taking our tax money for your stay in Russia. On the off chance you aren't a hypocritical parasite, however, you could, in addition to giving up the cash, prove your sincerity by renouncing your citizenship at the nearby U.S. Embassy, and then staying permanently the hell out of the US of A.

I was watching the russian news last night (I get the russian channel - NTV here in brooklyn, ny). Anyway, they showed these 3 russian guys with a big american flag standing in front of american embassy in moscow with signs saying that we should've finished saddam off in 1991. Older folks were stopping to yell at them. It was pretty funny.
