Middle-Schoolers Drown Out Protesters (My Title)
Foxnews.com ^ | March 13, 2003 | Associated Press

Preceding the arrests were speeches denouncing President Bush's drive toward using military force in Iraq. Holding enlarged photos of Iraqis, about 20 people gathered with the Capitol as a scenic backdrop.

At one point they were drowned out by dozens of middle schoolers from Broussard, La., singing "God Bless America," who were waiting to take a group picture on the same spot.

We should stop referring to these protests as “PEACE PROTESTS” and start referring to them as “SURRENDER RALLIES” because that is what they are.

From the article....Arrested were Kelly Campbell, whose brother-in-law died in the Pentagon, Nancy Lessin, whose stepson is a Marine stationed in the Persian Gulf, Molly McGrath and Bob Wing.

I'm sure that Nancy Lessin's stepson is very proud of her.

I guess they think they have more 'moral authority' to protest than we mere slugs out here.

Sorry folks, capitulation has not worked anytime it has been tried!

Thanks for the Louisiana ping!

I'm so proud of these kids, but hardly surprised. Patriotism is still taught in most homes, schools and churches down here. Factor that with youthful enthusiasm and...voila!!

I'm going to write a letter of appreciation to the students.
