The media have pushed the idea that the demonstration this weekend at the White House was an "anti-war" gathering. What they didn't say was who was behind it.
No doubt, many fine, sincere people demonstrated this weekend against the U.S. liberation of Iraq. Being Americans, they're certainly entitled to do so.
Maybe they even endorsed the view of those who organized the demonstrations. On Thursday, the organizers ran a two-page ad. On one, they called the Bush administration liars. On the other, they ran the names of all those who have died in Iraq.
But we'd be surprised if those well-meaning folks understood whose banner they were marching under, because the media aren't reporting it. For the record, the lead organizer is ANSWER, which the media routinely refer to as an "antiwar group."
It is nothing of the sort.
In fact, ANSWER is a front group for the Stalinist Workers World Party. And any group that qualifies for that epithet in front of its name deserves special scrutiny, since Josef Stalin was responsible for the murder of as many as 25 million human beings.
Well, you might ask, does it really matter? It sure does.
Imagine for a moment it was a different group that sponsored the demonstration — say, a neo-Nazi group. Think The Washington Post and other media would report that? You bet they would.

Lie down with dogs, wake up with fleas.
You bet they would !!!
Thought you'd find this interesting!
Muslims want on that all time mass murder list. Certainly more have been killed in almost 14 centuries than Pol Pot's 2 million.
Notice...no wedding ring.
I'd say that most of the Country doesn't really know and understand what the likes of A.N.S.W.E.R is really about
Sheehan uses her dead son, and this woman uses her unborn child. They have no shame at all.
I've done several operations with Protest Warrior against these slimebags....the funny thing is CANSWER hates Jews and the nation of Israel as much as it hates America, yet the MSM NEVER points that out!
They will be the recipients if they continue to kill.
nor any honor
MSM= Mindless Spineless Media.
Thanks for the ping, I think...I just saw the picture of the pregnant woman that made a billboard out of her stomach...ewwwwww
I watched a few minutes of it near the end and they had a pali with a scarf turban and a "former" jew bad mouthing america and saying free palistine. They said some really crazy things like Israel only gave back 5% of the land they stole and gaza was just the beginning of what they want.
But the funny thing was they announced that someones kid was waiting for them at the socialist workers party tent.
Notice...no wedding ring.
A picture of the groom?
Bump...

here comes the backlash! I cant wait for the conservative pundits to get ahold of all the crap that was on display today in DC
Looks like Ms Sheehad is not above using Jesse "Love Child" Jackson, either! Still ROFL at that stupid drugged-out grin!
Stalin said it best: "Useless idiots"
You are correct; sadly.
Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!
Of course, they don't. And the MSM isn't about to inform them.

They formed 3 days after 9/11? What a coincidence....
"Imagine for a moment it was a different group that sponsored the demonstration — say, a neo-Nazi group. Think The Washington Post and other media would report that? You bet they would."
Hell no they wouldn't. As long as anyone, any group, or anything hates Bush, the ComPost will back them and provide refuge.
Here is one from Reuters
A large rally of anti-war demonstrators gathers on the Ellipse near the White House (Top) as seen from the top of the Washington Monument in Washington D.C. September 24, 2005. Tens of thousands of protesters gathered in the nation's capital in support of anti-war protestor Cindy Sheehan, who lost a son serving in the U.S. armed forces in Iraq, and demonstrated for the withdrawal of U.S. troops and an end to the war in Iraq.

By refusing to tell Americans what ANSWER is and its socialist agenda; the MSM shows their bias & support for the anti-American LEFT.
Has anyone seen an AP News article that correctly identified ANSWER even thought their banner was behind all the speakers including Cindy Sheehadi?
SF Chronicle said this:
"Most lawmakers stayed away, perhaps because of the political positions of the event's organizers, International ANSWER and United for Peace and Justice. In addition to calling for withdrawal from Iraq, the groups are also highly critical of Israel's occupation of Palestinian land and embrace a laundry list of other causes.
But Iraq was the main issue for most people in the crowd."
Note that ANSWER's 'laundry list' was not printed!
That woman is a PIG!
If he were alive today, he may have described this group as useless.
The supposed non liberal media is also missing another story in all of this. How many of the speakers are being paid to be there and how much. If they were real reporters, they'd check. Sounds like a good story and not too hard to track down, but they don't care.
L0L I stand corrected. There is a big difference in the 2 quotes.
Its late ;)
The Washington Post has an article in Sunday's edition on the protest.. the only 2 "protesters" they interview are a 60-year-old lady from Cleveland and a 56-year-old Catholic nun from Michigan who traveled by bus to represent the other 250 sisters in her convent.
Amazing how they walked past the crowd of weed-smoking hippies and anarachists to profile those 2 ladies. On the hunt for the next Cindy Sheehan...
"When the bus coming from Kalamazoo, Mich., pulled up to Freedom Plaza on Pennsylvania Avenue, Sister Maureen Metty, 56, stretched her legs and prepared for a brand-new experience.
"There were 250 sisters who wanted to be here today, but I'm the one they chose to send," she said. She carried a sign that read "Sisters of St. Joseph's for Peace," a folding stool and a backpack with snacks, her toothbrush and toothpaste. She snapped a flurry of pictures for the sisters back home, took a deep breath and headed into the crowd."

I have doubt.
Yep...it's past this greybeard's bedtime! Have a good rest!

Not sure of their payoff, but judging by the titles of their organizations, I'm pretty sure they are all tax exempt cover schemes.
To be honest I'm not sure when they started up .. just that they have a history
Kristinn knows more about this group
I'm just going by their webpage....
http://www.internationalanswer.org/
Ack!!!
Reference and read later bump. Thanks! :-)
A while back, Kristinn did some really good reseach on them and posted a thread about what he found
I thought I bookmarked the thread .. but I can't seem to find it
If we had a justice department worth it's salt, it would investigate who funds A.N.S.W.E.R., and just where it's tinticles lead.
A.N.S.W.E.R. supports the P.L.O. / Hamas point of view, the Taliban / Al Queda points of view as sell, South American Terrorists, Philipene Terrorists, and from the sound of their speaches, they detest just about every thing this nation stands for.
BTW all you open border folks out there, A.N.S.W.E.R. is one of your biggest supporters, or perhaps unbeknownst to you, an entity that you are supporting by your actions.
We're lucky to get a few hundred people on the street in Los Angeles. A.N.S.W.E.R. puts thousands of people out there. I'd like to know at what cost, and whose deep pockets are underwriting it.
A.N.S.W.E.R. is the single worst threat to this nation that there is at this time IMO. It combined with it's fellow travelers have only one thing in mind, taking this nation down.
MSM= Mindless Spineless Media.
I wish that were true but their not. The article is the work of an agenda. Take a wild guess what that is.
Notice...no wedding ring.
Do people really still look at the ring finger? I am married but no longer wear my ring. (Not only is it too tight now, but somehow it was bent). I haven't rushed to have it fixed, thinking I don't have to prove I'm married to anyone. But now I'm wondering if I'm walking around with three kids, and people are looking at my ring finger and making an assumption...
To fix the ring or not fix the ring? That is the question.
