The District and the National Park Service have issued official permits to an anti-war group, allowing it to march and assemble up to 8,000 protesters on Saturday in Lafayette Park, just across the street from the White House.

The permits were issued Friday to the International Action Center

She said the organization, which claims former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark on its list of supporters, is "adequately" funded.

I wish the communist countries would stop sending cash to these losers.

Sarah Sloan, a staff coordinator employed by the Action Center, said the IAC has enough money to stage a peace march and rally for at least 10,000 protesters.

Only if she flys about 9500 of 'em in from Cuba.

Don't believe that their funding comes just from communist countries.

These goobers are going to try to bait the cops and get injured. They need some "peace martyrs." For the police, I guess it's a question of how to beat someone up just enough to get them to stop being violent jerks, but not so much as to leave any good scars to show off.

9499 of those Cubans would hit the ground running, thanking God they have the chance to live in a free country. They understand what Communism truly does to a country. The rich, guilty college kids coming to protest will never gain that appreciation, because they'd sooner lecture from the US than practice what they preach.

I would like to go and counter protest these maggots, if you look at the people who are listed as organizers of this antiwar protest, they are the same ones who protested the EU meetings in Washington DC last year. I think the DC Chapter should organize a counter protest. I WILL BE THERE

Therefore Cubans living in US are extremely anticommunist (except maybe some Castro agents).

Let those cretins march without security. That's what they want for all the rest of us...no security. Give em what they desire.

I hope their protests go unreported. They would freak if the press didn't cater to them. It appears, I repeat-APPEARS, the press is on Americas side.

I'd like to see these creeps come to New York to protest. Maybe they can march down to the the former site of the World Trade Center. There are a few hundred New York cops and firefighters down there who would love to take an a hour away from their work on the pile and give them a nice warm welcome.

No way. They cry, but they're cowards.
If they truly believed in what they preach, they WOULD be in NY.
Their real goal is Bush bashing.

Rubber hoses and cyanide are a good tool for that kind of effect.

Every time I hear about these 'peace' protestors it reminds me of the lines in the Blues Brothers

Akroyd: "Illinois Nazis ..."

Belushi: "I HATE Illinois Nazis"

VROOOOOM !!!! (car tires squealing)

..refocus our protest and deal with the backlash against Arab-Americans

Translation: Nobody will pay attention to us now, so we have to switch to the next sympathy gambit to raise funds.

Will someone please help me with this? My dad works for the "UNITED STATES" postal service. He works with a woman who seems like she just arrived on a Greyhound bus from Berkley. He and "ALL" co-workers, except her, were talking about what should happen to these terrorists. Nothing distasteful. They had flags and God Bless America signs and all that. This Communist pig goes and cries to the supervisor that all this talk and flags offends her. The supervisor, who is just days away from retirement, asks everyone to cool it. I can see his point. He doesn't need any trouble. But it's just not here. It's all over. What the hell is going on here? Why can one lone dissenting pig piss on everyone else's parade? And that's not all...are you ready for this?...Everyone knew that on a recent vacation, this woman went to Toronto, Canada. SHE...on her own free will, told colleagues that she had only caught a plane in Toronto and that she actually went to CUBA!!!! When my dad told me this, I said to immediately call the FBI and notify them. Am I overreacting? I just can't get why these people that are so anti-american are catered to and not just run out of the country or monitored by the authorities. Oh....I told my dad and his friends to go to her house with spray paint and write "COMMUNIST SLUT" all over her house. That may be a bit much. But am I wrong to be this pissed off?
