I'm not overly keen on clicking links from posters I don't know well. Is that an anti-FReeper site?

Well thank you for that. We went down, as I said for the Pro Life rally, and it's a good 1000 miles. But it was worth it. As I said, I couldn't afford to go again, and couldn't get the weekend off anyway.

Your behavior demonstrates otherwise.

How so, Juez?

"I'd love to attend these protest but unfortunately, unlike these pig, I work for a living,"

We all work for a living. So do the Lefties. It's just about priorities. I get off work on Friday night and go to counter these guys in Studio City, California. That's every Friday, regardless of the conditions. I've even been there with a fever. Like I said, "it's about priorities".

And please don't use "I'd end up in jail". You can and would resist punching them if it meant dishonoring those that we stand up for.

Now get out there!

I called both my Senators offices about the resolutions.......I did it fairly calmy and rationally.

Do you think Carl Levin's answer guy actually reported what I said?

I hope you never get quoted in the media. I'm sure you would embarrass our cause.

Once a year isn't bad. Once a year when you have to drive 1,000 miles is very impressive. If only more people were this serious.

Here CP, you WILL lose your job, should your employer find out about where you went, and why. People do not realize how bad it has gotten here. Folks have been banned from company parking lots for having Bush bumper stickers. So that part of your post isn't quite true.

Certainly there must be some companies who don't do that, but not many.

"The First Amendment is not an excuse for spitting on a wounded Iraq vet." I would be very surprised if indeed this happened. Most of these people were core peace activists from their home areas and too sophisticated to blame servicemen for the war.

With all due respect to the thread author, I would want to see verification.

I have seen unethical, emotionally charged and agenda ridden lefties massively lie on Indymedia taking advantage of the self publishing features to grind and ax, and unfortunately I have seen good people on the right tweak the facts to their favor too.

Other than my giggling, along with many others at this point I think, I now merely await your judgment on my being a poor Christian example.

I told mine .. and a few other senators to go to hell

That was about as calm as I could get

I'm with you, Takoma! It galls me that so many say "we'd be there but ____"! I'm sooo tired of only Mac and I going up against these guys week after week, and people saying how great it is that we are out there, but they can't seem to pick up a sign or flag! And California is the home of Free Republic! I don't care where they are from, people better get out and show their support, instead of excuses! Putting a magnet or flag on your car doesn't cut it anymore! Put your butt on the corner!

STAND UP AMERICA...NOW! IT IS THE ELEVENTH HOUR!

GOD BLESS THOSE WHO RALLY FOR THE TROOPS AND AMERICA!

Like the ones that are going on every week around this country!

Check your city, and if it doesn't have one...start one! The libs have a great saying, "if not me...who. If not now...when?" At least they got one thing right.
