Rocky Anderson appears to want a short ride on the president's coat tails.

Everybody has the right to protest.

I see you're new here. That is correct, though nobody cares anymore. Since we know that lefties get to protest on somebody else's dime, as a rule, we tend to simply ignore and otherwise disparage them. Real people actually have opinions that don't involve going all babyfaced.

Purportedly protesting Pres. Bush (he, Condi, and Rummy are here to talk to the Legionnaires). However these protests always end up being a protest of anything and everything the left doesn't endorse.

A lot of Utahns aren't very happy with Rocky pulling this - rather than taking the time to welcome the veterans, he's focused on protesting. Cindy Sheehan was also supposed to be there but canceled at the last minute, yesterday (she actually had legit medical reasons for doing so, although I'm not sure why she committed to the protest when she knew she'd be in the hospital...likely a coordinated ploy to generate more attention).

The issue is not whether he has the right to protest but rather is he right to protest. Two very different things. It is my right to protest the earth being round. However, I would be an idiot to do so. By the way, I have no idea who this protester is or why he is protesting

Yup. However, they should also consider a little consideration when it involves a veterans gathering. The mayor, in particular, should've had enough courtesy to let the kooks have their protest and given the Vets a decent welcome.

Another thing to consider: they have the right to protest and everyone else (the vast majority) has the right to disagree with it (and say so). Despite what socialists etc have become accustomed to, the 1st Amendment is a two-way street.

Sorry. I should've noticed that there is no context on the web page. This may help:
