Thanks for the report.

The majority of Americans have not forgotten 9/11. America was attacked and many Americans, myself included, think we will be attacked again. This is the BIG difference between VietNam and now. Today my husband and I went to the town-wide garage sale in Warrensburg, NY in the Adirondack Mountains - we were selling there. American Flags were being flown, were on shirts being worn and I watched as about thirty folks on motorcycles went through town with each motorcycle flying the American Flag. This annual event attracts Americans from near-by states such as New Jersey and Pennslyvania. America at its best - small town USA!

Bush is going to give a speech on Monday. That'll sure make the peace-nicks look like the idiots they are. The speech has come at a good time. Peace-nicks will be left in the dust. They'll soon be forgotten. All that work and expence just to have Americans laugh at them.

"DEAD WRONG. Real conservatives battle these guys toe-to-toe and defeat them with wit and with aplomb. Don't tell me what real conservatives do or don't do, bro. I was there in West Palm in '00 carting my homemade signs and shoe-polishing my car to keep our elections fair and honest. I even wrote a few anti-Gore ditties. "

LOL. How silly.

Political enemies are defeated by money, son. Guns if it turns to war. Everything else is just "boob bait for the bubbas", "bread and circuses".

"...and no one let the D.C. chapter read post 42."

LOL. You guys crack me up...

Better censor this post as well, cause I'll repeat #42:

real conservatives do not counter-protest, they set up stands and sell the protesters water (with a "salubrious" profit).

Which part of free enterprise do you not understand.

I don't know how old you are, but I'm in my 60s and have seen this before. I know how it starts, and I know how it progresses, and I know how it has ended in the past.

[Elcie30]

Alas, no. I am not that computer savvy. : )

[Madcelt]

No disrespect but....who cares? Let'em scream and chant and slit their wrists.

Do you think we could get that lucky?

Hey, the media didn't show the over 5,000 people who organized and showed up for a "IMPEACH CLINTON" rally in DC, so I'm relieved to see they are offering equalilty.

The Democrats ought to be REAL PROUD. The Soldiers who are in harms way ought to feel really good about this.

Reflections of Vietnam stirring in the winds.

When we go into Iraq, we here at FR need to make sure that NATION WIDE there are support the troops rallies. For those who are in Afghanistan and Iraq, the Phillipines and elsewhere.

Lets GET READY to roll!!

I wish I could go, I would wear my new button that reads, "GO GET'EM GEORGE" and looks like the crosshairs of a gun.

I can't help but to think back to the 80's when the Left was barkin' that Ronald Reagan was going to start WW III & nuclear devastation of the world.
Remember how they actually held the TV movie, The Day After in solemn awe?

We just need to get the facts to people, the rest will take care of itself.
The Left should be treated as irrelevant, and ignored.

[joyce11111]

that went on here in the people's republic of Eugene Oregon on Saturday with Rep. Peter Defazio speaking.

What horrid group of human debris attended.

[fourdeuce82d]

Tell me all of these people just happen to all go protest.

Tell me the democrats/jackson et. al could organize their way out of a paper bag. this was probably set up via the internet- same bunch of geeks and freaks that did the Seattle protests, etc..

We have free republic, they have demo underground, bartcop, common dreams, etc..

You should be ashamed of yourself for your comments to =Intervention=. I hesitate to even respond because you are so obviously much more experienced, and smarter, and savvy than mere peons that get off their behinds and at least ATTEMPT to make a difference as did so many in Florida during the election debacle.

You have just slurred every single freeper who has put shoe leather to the street to wave signs, who have stood vigil for hours outside Gore's residence shouting "Get out of Cheney's house." You have just said that they were wasting their time.

You are wrong.

Perhaps you'd like to rephrase your comments in an attempt to sound less like a supercilious blowhard know-it-all prick.

[Admin Moderator]

That's the second post of yours that I have pulled tonight. Do not post that again.

Bush has lost control over events. Like his father he is too timid and cautious. They better wrap this up fast. This is not the US of the 1960s. As bad as the anti war movement was then this time will be much worse.

[bonesmccoy]

Yes, I believe the brand is Naive...err...sorry I meant evian

[bonesmccoy]

Looks like it was a radical left march with a combination of Bay Area loonies bused in to LA (who apparently missed the Davis/Clinton lovefest) and the local UCLA radicals. These upstanding US citizens are naive, misguided, and illinformed.
