I'll be there -- again. Rallying to the cause of liberty. It can get isolating in that pen and even at other places in Boston, surrounded by DNC scum, and media whores for the Dems (and not a single Bush sign or supporter around)! My rare company on one day, for this former "vet" of supporting dissidents in Latvia and Armenia [that is, putting my neck on the line during a trip to the USSR during the mid-1980s], was, at times, a woman (behind the anti-Communist poster posted on this list) who built ballistic missile defense systems targeting the Chinese [the real purpose behind Safeguard] while her husband was in the Navy off Cuba, and a vet from Korea who relished real battle against Asian Communists. The fact is we have too many careerist suburbanites dominating "the cause," and utter degenerates controlling the "rags," who fail to grasp, or don't want America to grasp, that the Rubicon is being crossed by the enemies of the republic and forces of tyranny as we sit and type.
Capt Contradictory... #34 Bush is the most socialist president since FDR
#41 surrounded by DNC scum, and media whores for the Dems (and not a single Bush sign or supporter around)! Intimating that you are the only Bush supporter...
Thanks for the laugh...
Kook Alert!
Time to break out the riot helmets and the night sticks.
"Put your clubs on WHOMP, boys and girls!"
Rush Limbaugh and Michael Savage have made similar comparisons as made in #34. Drug plan, education bill, farm bill, steel subsidies, NSA Adviser, Rice, who as Provost of Stanford supported the marginalization of Western Civ texts and railed against Sam Huntintgon, kow-towing to the Red Chinese...time to start paying attention to the details...
Must have gone to public school with the #41. Read it again closely...who said I was a supporter of Bush?
Boston's other Green Monster!
Outside the Fleet Center in Boston site of the current Democrat National Convention is the"free speech zone."
Cognitive dissonance...The classic symptom is to not have to make a reasoned or factual argument and instead hurl invectives. My sympathies...
DAILY UPDATE, THURSDAY, JULY 29, 2004 (4:00 PM EST)
Riot at the DNC Center
BOSTON-July 29, 2004 (4:00pm EST)
An Anarchist mob, organized by a group calling itself the Black Tea Society, descended upon the Fleet Center this afternoon determined to incite police into a confrontation. While conservative protesters, few and far between today, gathered inside "The Pen," the mob marched from the Commons towards the DNC Center and along Causeway St. north of the Center. They seemed determined to test the official policy of forcing protests only inside the pen. In fact, Boston police had already largely abandoned the disgusting "zone" policy, and had been letting small groups march along Causeway and throughout the city at will. About a hundred protesters, who were mixed in with several hundred spectators and media, ended up confronting a solid line of riot police just outside the "zone" entrance. After protesters lit a fire and threw an American flag on it, things got rough when the police pushed the small mob back away from Causeway Street. A melee ensued, which looked more like a press riot due to the overwhelming number of media people there eager to get a photo so they could exaggerate the actions of a few agitators. Three people wearing gear indicating they were Anarchists were soon arrested. After that, a small mob of media kept the police at bay. That was it. Police NEVER actively enforced the "speech zone" policy -- a victory of sorts.
Site refuses to post photos glorifying the Marxist Anarchists...go to CBS and ABC affiliate sites in Boston for TV coverage.

what freeper would waste thier time with this?? i am in boston but i wouldnt go protest (i have a life).
right or left wing, i really dislike protestors.
When outsiders get involved the rules change. If they get some hurt directed in their direction, they brought it on themselves.
You are missing the time of your life, a good FReep is all most as good as a romantic evening with your main squeeze, if you want testimonials, I have them.
Yes. We need to think about the "iron men" (Lincoln's
term for them) who made the American Revolution. We also
should consider the great sacrifices being made by our soldiers, and civilians, in Iraq. Can't we be one-tenth
the men, or people, that they are?
There are certain "Republicans" who are no help at all:
Those who treat the GOP as a social club and do nothing for us politically, people for whom "political activity" means writing a check and getting your picture taken once a year with a bigshot congressman. Those a bit further down the social scale whose idea of political activism is to hang around a headquarters for a few afternoons and gripe to each other about the latest horror stories they've heard on talk radio. Those who promise to walk a precinct or show up at a phone bank, but never get around to it because their kid has a birthday party, because they forgot, because a dog got sick, or any number of other petty, self-indulgent suburban excuse. Those who won't even promise to do something, because they're too obsessed with their own private little worlds. Those would help except that they're scared to: What would their neighbors, or clients, or customers, or their kids' friends' parents, think?
If we cannot break through this crap, we may well lose this election. In a certain sense, the enemy really is "us."
don't forget your cameras...
Good heaven's isn't your message all over the place. C'mon... This sentence is in direct conflict with the sign. It says Ashcroft-Kerry, equalizing the two, like Kerry-Edwards. You can't claim the "nationalist Republican" (wtf is that) isn't equating Kerry and Ashcroft in that poster.
Rice, who as Provost of Stanford supported the marginalization of Western Civ texts and railed against Sam Huntintgon, kow-towing to the Red Chinese...

The changes have not come without controversy, especially over what should constitute undergraduates' core requirements in the humanities. The debate over multiculturalism in Stanford's curriculum was played out both on campus and on the conservative editorial pages of the Wall Street Journal. "The argument that I have never bought on the conservative side is that the study of Western civilization devoid of the study of all the other civilizations that helped to shape it was the smart thing to do," Rice says. "Human history has been the story of clashes of civilizations and that is the interesting part about it. It is absolutely true that our political structures, our civic structures, come more from Western history than from almost anything else. But I think it is important to teach about clashes of civilizations and how they infected and affected each other and how certain civilizations have won out at certain times. I never understood the critique that you should teach only Western civilization.
Oh no, the crazy communism this entails...
Seriously, I agree with her. Western Civ is not the only thing that America is built upon. I guess you'll just have to call me a commy...
...who said I was a supporter of Bush?
YOU!!! (see #42) What a waste of time this conversation is if you can't even see that.
You mean guys like Samuel Adams and the Sons of Liberty. What do you think they did for 6-7 years before...
hahaha ya because they are equal. plus at least they had the good sense to dump tea at night and not block traffic when people have to go home from work.
Yea, greasy hair and all. Most of those people are lacking true intellectual social interaction. I don't think we're going to see Kent State any time soon.
Looks like you busted someone in secret admiration for the Socialists and their methods that he claims to be fighting against so much. Its funny, but these Losertarians and Constipation Party ranters always love to blast the Commies and have this holy-than-thou attitude towards Republicans in their never ending battle with the Hammer and Sickle, but why are they always wanting to copy the protestors methodologies?
What's worse, is that rather than getting together with 10 like minded raving "patriots" in a nothing more than a circle jerk they fail to do the one thing that could actually affect power; sell out and vote for the Republicans.
(Not that I am a rah rah Kool Aid drinker for the GOP--Recall David Dreier!)
All I can do to help is provide a link that might be a start towards exploring the real history that they didn't teach you in public school, that is, from 1765-1773 (the Party), the Sons acted very much like the people you berate in the streets. See, e.g., http://www.ushistory.org/declaration/related/sons.htm
