1,000,000?

Cool - they'll all be in one spot...;-)

True. The likes of George Soros would just charter more buses to bring in their hooligans.

One group of pimps of the election industry (the media) love this. It stirs the pot and creates chaos.

The protesters should understand that the First Amendment gives the Right to Free Speech, but that right does not include breaking the law!

I would have a fleet of C-130s ready to evacuate the law breakers to Bagdad!

I was headed into Penn Station yesterday afternoon walking along the 31st street side and it appeared they were putting up fairly stout steel gates over certain portals on that side- heavy stuff 10 or 12 feet tall. While I was waiting for my train back here [DC] I talked to a couple of policemen about the impending demonstrations. They indicated it would get a little rough during the convention. I am sure they have plenty of additional force waiting in the wings.

Sometimes I think I live in bizarro world where Hoolywood idiots, liberal talking heads, and print media people are fighting Bush and hating America while we try to fight terrorism. And somehow the other side gets traction and respect on cable news shows? Sometimes I think I live in a world gone mad, especailly after 911.

Sometimes it's enough to make me want to do an early check-out...after I do some house cleaning of course.

People have gone mad. They are MORE arrogant, rude, selfish and hateful then they were before 911. It is almost supernatural. I would place the same label on Bush's inappropriate restraint on Iraq, N Korea, Iran, and politically as well.

The world has indeed gone to hell.

Wood shampoos ...

ROFLMAO!!! Funniest thing I've heard all week! Had to explain to office mate why I'm laughing out loud over the mental image of peace protesters getting their heads bashed in.

[concerned about politics]

Notice how the Republicans gave the Democrats their right to speak and a peaceful convention. We showed we had class.
Now look how they're trying to deny the other half of America the same courtesy.
Anyway, this will make the Republicans the normal Americans, and the Democrats a bunch of hate filled creeps. Moderate people would want no association with them.

[concerned about politics]

Poll on Fox today - a 27% increase for Bush by undecided voters because of Swift Boat Vets ad.

Everything the left does is good for Bush.

[concerned about politics]

However, I wonder if the Bush-haters have taken into account that if they cause an attack .. it will only rally the Bush SUPPORTERS to re-elected Bush in an even bigger landslide margin.

Yep.
"The NYC police were busy trying to keep the peace. If it weren't for the protesters getting in the way, the terrorists could have been stopped."

Cool - they'll all be in one spot...;-)

And may be right next to a missed truck bomb. I wonder if any of them have thought about that. I suppose it's too far over their heads.
Democrats are not deep thinkers.

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

Your take on this Ken? I feel NYC has been through too much to allow these idiots to cause MORE trouble for them -I just think they will be squashed....

Ted Rall checks in with a particularly vile and loathsome commentary on what to do to delegates at the RNC.

The ironic thing is that although bin Laden welcomes their show in the streets demonizing Bush, do these protesters think that bin Laden and the Wahabbis like them one whit better than Bush and Rummy? No! Militant Islam despises gays, feminists and hippie slackers. OBL would just as soon incinerate the lot of them. The libs think that with a liberal, Democratic, internationalist government that the terrorists will smile and be placated. Nothing could be further from the truth. The Islamists would consider the NYC protest mobs to be the epitome of the Great Satan infidel world.

"Militant Islam despises gays, feminists and hippie slackers. OBL would just as soon incinerate the lot of them."

Once they've used them to help acheive their goals.

"I live 120 feet from where these poeple will be congregating. Any suggestions?"

Yeah, you can come up and stay in Rochester for the week... LOL!

[NYC GOP Chick]

ping.

Are you ready for a bunch of morons?

As long as they keep the hell away from me, all will be fine. I don't want to get into any confrontations with these animals and will do my best to avoid that. However, if any one of them lays a hand on me, he or she is going down hard to the ground.

For the most part, they're a bunch of spoiled whiners. Just today, I was reading in the Daily News about how they're pouting and screeching over the fact that the delegates are getting the proverbial red carpet rolled out for them, while the city isn't being as welcoming to the smelly rioters. Well, which group is going to spend money, while the other is trashing the place?

[stockpirate]

Yesterday it was 250,000 now its 1,000,000???

Tomorrow it will be 1,000,000,000

[CyberAnt]

These juvenile idiots have no idea what they're doing.

[t_skoz]

That is a disgusting, inhuman column. Hate is such a wicked poison.

This sort of stuff happened at my college all the time, except that it was Aparthied. I'm sure that the political leaders of South Africa trembled at the might of a dozen unwashed hippies in a small Northern school.

Did we go to the same college? The ones at my school actually took over the administration building. They were expecting to be arrested that day, but instead, the school let them stay in there for days, which freaked them out but good!
