BG, your a something!! You fought for your country and you continue to do so. thanks. San Francisco needs to be taken back, it's so beautiful there.
This is the first I've seen of your group. Didn't know we had our own San Francisco Branch of Protest Warriors! Saw the anarchists on the 11:00 News. Of course they chose to show the Bush Burning effigies. So glad to know that you were their to represent Conservative San Franciscans! Thank you!!
Great Job!
"We also had the “how come you aren’t fighting in Iraq” comment and when I would break out my being an Air Force Veteran, they never had much more to say after that. Sometimes they would come back with, “why don’t you go back in” and I would respond with I fougth for freedom of speech and how many of your people have served their country?"
Next time tell them: "I fought for your right to protest".
Large brass ones. Bravo, sir!
You guys are awesome. When my kids are a bit bigger, we may come up and endure one of your gantlets. If you want a public debater on environmental and regulatory issues, I can get that done.
Nice job, folks!
I saw the Moore-ons on the morning news.
Great work, bg. Thanks for serving. What did you do in the Air Force?
You ROCK!
Thanks!
Yep, it's all true. Todd even understates the nastiness of the nastiest of the nasties. Still, like him, I met several sincere and respectful liberals who were genuinely interested in discussing the issues with a conservative. One young man in particular who was an undergrad at Cal seemed to have simply never heard our President defended in person. I spoke with him for 15 minutes or so and am sure that it was a worthwhile effort. I too was once a young campus leftie who had never heard conservatism explained. At any event like this it is the "black bloc" type crazies who get all of the attention (and you do have to watch those types because they ARE dangerous). But mixed in with these leftie crowds is a significant minority of intelligent, decent, well-intended folks who for one reason or another have not yet been exposed to our conservative philosophies. I think it is a very useful public service to attempt to gradually peel off these decent folks from the hard-core totalitarian socialist maniacs. Plus it's fun to gloat and yesterday San Francisco was schaudenfreud city, baby!!!!
Protest Warriors are amazing........!
Thanks for the report. You guys are always such an inspiration to me.
We need pictures of that.
Ask them why they're not human shields in Iraq.
Why did they send human shields to protect Saddam and when terrorists drive car bombs into crowds of children, none of the brave peace loving, anti-war human shileds can be found?
