The True Nature of These "Peace" Protesters
Brain Terminal ^

Posted on 02/26/2003 1:32:50 PM PST by yonif

"You have heard it on Rush they have no ideas, no logic or answers, but now you can see it for yourself. There is more anti-Bush than anti-war sentiment, which proves they are clearly not protesting the butcher of Baghdad, but Bush's administration"

Ahh..I can see by your profile page that you are definately here to make friends.

And the point being made is that the socialist's/stalinists are using a trumped up "peace" movement to attack anything conservative.

and so you're saying it's impossible to oppose both bush and his policies?

Of course it is. But it's hypocritical to protest GWB's current efforts on anything less than political grounds when you were silent as churchmice when Clinton was lobbing cruise missiles at Iraq in '98, or at Kosovo, etc. What part of that is a mystery to you?

I'm still waiting for the video to load, so I don't know what it shows. But if it shows the usual ANSWER/Sparticists with their Bush=Hitler signs, it is clear that they are just demonizing Bush rather than engaging in serious dialogue.

How do you have a rational discussion of policy with somebody who accepts as axiomatic that GWB is invading Iraq just to finish his father's war or just for oil or just to get the DJIA off the front page? These aren't arguments. They aren't even good slogans. They are just mindless parrotings of fanatical ravings of people who are paranoid about all things Bush.

It's a great video, and shows the true thought-process (or lack therof) of the average peacenik.

It just finished loading.

How did I know what they were all going to say even before watching it?

All these anti-war types parrot the same talking points over and over, but ask them what should be done, and they never seem to have an answer.

I think the simple explanation is that the enemy (Saddam) of their enemy (Bush) is their friend.

The guy does a great job drawing them out, and framing his questions. This is mandatory viewing, imho.

It's a great video, make no mistake.

It's just depressing to think that these folks vote.

I didn't wait for the video to load at this time (I may download it later).

Another tip off that the "peace" protestors are in reality antiBush protestors is when they hold up their "impeach Bush" or even "Bush was not elected" signs.

The left believes that Fidel Castro and Saddam Hussein were elected of course they were the only candidates running for their offices though.

I don't even need to read their arguments. They aren't debating the war, they are offering up bumpersticker logic and when pressed on one point just move onto another slogan.
