"I bet they got time off of school for this, unlike the girl that wanted to sing for President Bush."
Man, the thought of that makes me want to go into her school faculty and go on a wedgie campaign.

Tremendous 'Bravo!'
No doubt answered with a "Huh?" by its recipient. But the message hit home where it matters, and I applaud the time you took to record and submit these thoughtful and profound insights.

I don't think I agree.
Verb of being.
The "I" is correct, as in "It was I" the obverse of which is "I was it."
(but I'm open to correction.)

Maybe next they'll do us all a favor and take their show on the road in Gaza... in front of an Israeli bulldozer.

However, we both soon found out that all you needed to attend were strong political convictions.
And a weak understanding of politics and the ramifications of policy based on "feelings".
Great post 2banana!

What was interesting about this story is the total lack of explanation of the reasoning behind the high-schoolers' demands to end the war. Why? Can they even articulate a good reason beyond "make love not war"? That is not rational. I suspect they are merely doing this to be in the "cool" group and feel good about themselves. They don't even have the presence of mind to realize that the logo at the bottom of their signs represents an organization that would eventually take their right to protest away from them if it eventually realized its goals.
It's idiots like these that give those of us with pricipled reasons for opposing the Iraq war a bad name. That and their duplicity. Clinton could apparently do no wrong.

Awesome! Both barrels for the bimbos!
People today who support the old communist fronts are foolishly mislead or visciously evil.

I can't improve on your reply in any way. But I will note that these two cute teenagers are unwitting dupes of the Blame America nation.
I hasten to add that cute coeds were always the bait used by the radical left. Braless hippie girls at 60s anti-war protests got all the media attention. Man, being an animal with supressed caveman motivations, is attracted to fresh faced teenage girls, often against his better instincts.
While the instinct to mate with healthy females was important to the survival of the species (and DNA), in modern times it can prove problematic. Bubbly teens attract men in droves, ask any bar or club owner.
The dumber ones are clueless to their role as crowd attractors. I know plenty of aging hippies, and the honest ones admit that they would have left the anti-war movement if not for all the "loose chicks".
Girls: you're being used.

Yes. From Non-sequitur:
Two guys in a bar, one guy with a "No war" badge.
Guy with badge: I carefully examine the perspectives of each group and determine which side has the hottest girls.
