These lying liberals always go to far.

They dance when they see fake polls showing the President's approval down.

Guess what, Dems in Congress are rated lower than GOP in Congress and President Bush. That translates into Dems Lose again in 2006.

The anti-American left leads these protests.

Sheehan hates the War in Afghanistan as well. Completely debunking positions of ratings plummeting liars like Chris Matthews.

It is sickening.

62 MILLION VOTED FOR BUSH.

WE DID NOT DISAPPEAR. YOUR NETWORK RATINGS ARE.

ENJOY ANNOYING US FOR 2006.

IT WILL BE EVEN MORE SATISFYING TO BEAT YOU YET AGAIN.

Some non-veteran mole needs to join "Veterans For Peace", and then out himself to whatever media might listen.

I think Squeegee Guy might be the man who declined to give his name. I don't know who McCarron is. What does McCarron mean wounded vets have been kept out of the news? Idiot.

At least one anti-war demonstrator conceded that standing out in front of a military hospital where wounded soldiers and their families are entering and exiting, might not be appropriate.

"Maybe there is a better place to have a protest. I am not sure," said a man holding a sign reading "Stop the War," who declined to be identified.

Why don't they just grab a wounded vet and urinate and defecate on him?

They would be putting their words into an action reflecting their rhetoric.

I absolutely cannot disagree with you on that account. And to be honest, I don't disagree with you in general. I think these people need to be dealt with, and convincingly. They are an insult to everything this country stands for.

Some one should tell Luke that this country is supposedly evenly divided with Libs and most Dems against the war.

Even with that, we are meeting recruiting goals and exceeding re-enlistment goals.

Soon we may have to call our military the Republican Guard.

"We know most of the George Bush supporters have never spent a day in uniform, have never been closer to a battlefield than seeing it through the television screen," Luke said, brushing his long raven locks with one hand and smoothing down his skirt with the other...

HAHA

Just heard the author of this piece, Marc Morano, on Laura Ingraham's radio show.

He credited FR for alerting him to the story too!

My word. I am so humbled. And tears are rolling down my cheeks.

Dear Cindy Sheehan -- do you think these people protested in front of Iraq's Presidential palace? And that's why they are in graves? Do you think they were trying to reveal the laws and sanctions broken by their President. Do you think, had Saddam not been stopped, he hadn't America in mind to do this to next?

No permit is needed in DC if you have under 25 people.

In our experiences, the DC police officers have been polite and professional dealing with the Walter Reed dueling protests, except the first time out. That time, the officer asked us for our permit under highly questionable circumstances.

We had called the police because the Pinkos sent three of their number into our midst. They refused all requests to go back to their side of the street. One of them claimed that he was a veteran of the 351st Airborne (there is no such outfit), loved killing, and had a gun in his pocket. After he made the gun statement, he realized that he had gone too far.

The three Pinkos, anticipating the police, scurried away like rats, changing their outer layer of coats (e.g., putting gray sweater over red jacket).

Officer pulled up to the Pinko side of the street. tgslTakoma ran over and said "I'm the one who called." Officer, "go back to your side & I'll come over there when I'm through here."

Officer came over to our side a minute or two later. Barney Fife asked to see our permit & wasn't interested in the disruptors and the alleged gun. We told him that we didn't need a permit. He called his sgt., came out of his car & said that his sgt. confirmed that we didn't need one.

"You can stay there," he said. "What about the people who harassed us and the guy claiming to have a gun?" one of us asked. "Call back if they return," he said.

(Since then, we have had numerous interactions with the police and they have been great, but I just imagine the one officer going to a bank robbery. The bank employee tries to tell the officer which way the perps went, but the officer says "show me your business license.")

Pinkos denied any knowledge of the three disruptors. Then we looked at our photos and found the disruptors were talking to the Pinkos and making their signs "Kill the Poor" with the Pinkos.

When confronted about their lie and our photos proving that the three were Pinkos, Chief DC Pinko Gael Murphy claimed that the three just happened to gather with them and make signs with them, but had nothing to do with Code Pink.

kristinn told the Pinkos that they risked a lawsuit if they tried tricks like that again. They haven't. The thread of the first FReep http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1374288/posts

I'm thinking about collecting some slugs and a bucket full of snails - taking pictures and photo shopping some names of liberals on the slugs for fun and entertainment. (A lot of the slugs rivial Michael Moore in size.)As for the picture of the bucket of snails, that could come in very handy in a whole bunch of situations.

;D

I look forward to responding to them.

It's a silly argument because as citizens we're entitled to an opinion about anything our government does.

I've known Kevin McCarron for many years. He's a government bureaucrat and former Marine. He's very radical and perpetually angry.

He once was giving a lunchtime presentation on economics and started decrying property rights as a terrible thing that allowed the rich to exploit the poor. In the question and answer session, I asked him if he could name some countries on earth that didn't have property rights and were paradises for the poor. He got very angry at the question, although he didn't have a good answer.

Let's just say he doesn't like me very much. If he sees me on the opposing side as a rally, he may have words for me. But I've heard and read his insults toward me before, so no problem.
