What a great story! Brilliant writing! I can't say I have ever read anything that filled me with so much pride while also causing me to LOL several times.

I spotted a group of four anarchists carrying an upside down American flag and wondered how far they’d get with it. It turned out to be about 50 yards. Then, a vet managed to infiltrate the parade and snatched the flag from them, causing all four members of the revolutionary vanguard to run scurrying away.

I love it!!! The little faggots can't stand up to real men.

What a great piece! This man's writing is fantastic.

Thank you for clearing that up for me. Now, I don't feel as appalled that elected politicians didn't have the nerve to stand up and support our veterans and the troops now serving. As you can tell from my comment, I have become very disillusioned with Congress and their hypricasy and quest for power regardless of the cost to our country and our troops.

"Now I know there are a lot of groups out there. People make groups all the time. Like minded folks will always want to hang around with like minded people. Even if you like questioning things, you don't want to be questioned all the time.

But some groups make no sense to me. One of those groups are anarchists. Now, aside from the cook book, here's what I don't get: how can a person that believes in Anarchy be part of a group? Furthermore, how can someone not only belong to a group, but institute rules that govern a group of anarchists? How can anarchists plan for anything...there's no plan to chaos, that is why it is chaos. Perhaps, they believe that you have to have "rules, planning, organization" up until a certain point then everyone freaks out and runs around. When they all get tired then they order a pizza, from random pizza place to be delivered at a random location, at a random time."

Good one. I wish there were a lot more "infiltrators" to give us inside looks like this!

When confronted by people who actually fought and bled for their country, the protestors grew sheepish and embarrassed -- I would even say humiliated.

Makes me feel very humble too. Brought tears of gratefulness to my eyes.

I just spoke to a buddy of mine that I haven't seen since this weekend.

I told him that I had been in DC counter-protesting Cindy Sheehan and friends.

He said, "Yes, I saw that on the news and had no idea that anyone was counter-protesting. It's good that a few people will stand up to them. The press never shows that."

I told him, Yes, "A 'few' people did. Please, the next time you get to a computer, Google, 'Gathering of Eagles', and then tell me what you think of the Press."

I can't wait to hear what he says.

we missed YOU, Saturday.

frankly, you "missed out on" being FROZEN, WET & MISERABLE! (i didn't think i would ever thaw out.) nonetheless, it was a GRAND day!!!!

MANY of the "moon-bats" may NEVER come to DC again. it was obvious to me that they felt OVER-whelmed by the size of the VETs group in attendence.

Nostrilitis gigantis presents as a very large species, dwarfing Leftist crustaceans of lesser proportion.

The protests have actually shrunk since the clinton years when they would shut down cities like Seattle and San Fagcisco. Those were riots and now they are just worn out burn outs.

Pray for W and Our Troops
