I guess there are two sides to a coin.

Which side only of the South Korean coin is the US media showing us???

Pretty cool. Can U.S. Freepers get 3,000 people to turn out on a Sunday for an loud anti-North Korean rally?

[Capitalism2003]

ok, this guy absolutely ROCKS!!!

[piasa]

That is cool.

When the US stands up, so will others. I wonder if any stood up when Clinton was catering to North Korea's every whim?

The Christian Plurality in S. Korea is SOLIDLY behind the US presence on the Island. This is NOT their 1st pro-US rally. It's just the 1st that has shown up in the media.

There were 10,000 in Seoul about 2 weeks ago.

I guess there are two sides to a coin.

Aren't there actually three?:)

Seriously, it's good to see that at least a few South Koreans appreciate wheat we did for them and have been doing for them for decades.

I like how the second poster seem sto fit in with the flaming one- the photographic figure holding hand over mouth as if to say, "Oh, no! I'm toast!"

[AmericanInTokyo]

I will agree with you. Of course, some distinction between Freepers and "Skreepers" (South Korean Freepers?). That is, Freepers in the states are not normally taken to burning things and throwing objects, but just as much anti-communist fervor resides deep in their hearts!

I would love to see some of these "Skreepers" include the photo of Madeline Albright smiling with Kim Jong il at the mass rally she attended. Another photo they could burn is Roger Clinton bowing at the foot of the huge, golden, idolotrous statue of Kim Il Sung in Pyongyang.

Cool! SKreepers!

[KC_Conspirator]

I love the propaganda that appeared on "60 Minutes" where they talked about "reunification" but failed to address the murderous communist regime, its viloent past, or the famine thats killed 2 million.

[xzins]

I can barely tolerate network news anymore.

I don't know how any thinking american can go to dan, peter, and tom. Even the BAD cable news outfits give real news every now and then. Those yardbirds gave up on facts years ago.

All opinion, all the time.

BUMP for SKreepers ! YEAH !

[philman_36]

You think he had his fire permit?

[piasa]

He is burning his own property- if that were a leftist he would be overturning cars and smashing windows.

[AmericanInTokyo]

I guess that makes Freepers in Japan (yes, there are some), as "Jeepers"! :-)
