Diverse Voices To Denounce Iraq Troop Plan [Hanoi Jane's war protest] [FR DC Chapter opposes]
Washington Post ^ | January 27, 2007 | By Michael E. Ruane

Tens of thousands of demonstrators from across the country are expected to converge in Washington today to urge the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Iraq as President Bush is proposing to send more troops in an effort to stabilize the country.

They plan to rally on the Mall, march around the north side of the Capitol and send a strong message to the government.

The event, which authorities said could draw 100,000 people, starts with a rally at 11 a.m. Among those expected to address the crowd are Jane Fonda, Danny Glover, Susan Sarandon and Jesse Jackson.

The march, organized by the group United for Peace and Justice, is scheduled to start at 1 p.m.

~~snip~~

Fifty to 100 members of the Washington chapter of the conservative organization FreeRepublic.com plan to rally near the U.S. Navy Memorial to oppose the march and the participation of Jane Fonda, the chapter said. The actress has long been the object of conservative ire for her support of North Vietnam during the Vietnam War.

"These groups are the ones that are acting as the political arm of the terrorists overseas to help bring about America's defeat in the war on terror," said Kristinn Taylor of FreeRepublic.com.

He's using the 10 commandments now, with a little added on..


No mention that the terrorists don't subscribe to them.. sure shows where his loyalty lies.

They want it to be true. They ARE the savior. Just listen to the Rev. Tim Robbins if you have a doubt. Now he's quoting the 10 Commandments. Oops. I mean re-writing the 10 Commandments.

I hope the purist conservatives who sat home in November are happy.

This is their fault.

Ok, I turned over to C-span to look. Susan Sarandon was spewing. Jane Fonda was yawning behind her. Then Tim Robbins got up to say Karl Rove was supeanoed.The only difference between this and the Vietnam protests is lots more gray hair. Intresting sweatshirt on stage. "Make Hip Hop and not war." Wow, such creative folks....Well, like Jane I am bored. Yawning and turning it off.
YOU GO DC CHAPTER! Give these people hell!

C-SPIN giving live and full coverage of this anti-Bush, anti-America hatefest now, just as I knew they would.

I noticed C-SPIN gave zip, zero, zilch, nada coverage to last week's "March for Life". Even Fox News presented only a few seconds' worth of coverage.

I am SO disgusted...
