Fox News just reported that an estimated "hundred thousand" protesters attended. Groan.

THANK YOU DC FREEPERS

"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things.
The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic
feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse.
The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight,
nothing which is more important than his own personal safety,
is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless
made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself."
John Stuart Mill (1806-1873)

I saw that on the news tonight. (I'm in Norway right now with my fiance's family).

My future father-in-law was like, it's terrible, no one wants the US in iraq, not even citizens.

He's a very nice man, a very good man, and quite honestly, if he was in America he'd be considered a conservative. So I didn't say it in a mean way...I just said,

"Yeah, the news here is as bad as it is back home. They don't show you the protests with just as many people against things like abortion, or supporting the troops being in Iraq. They only show the things they want you to see."

It's horrible how one-sided it is here. People are being manipulated by the media. If we lose in Iraq, it won't be because of the military, or because of Bush. It'll be because of how people are being deceived into discouragement.

I just posted the report from the Chicago Tribune -- the numbers estimated to have been at the DC rally vary depending upon which article you read.

Nice Crowd. I had to leave early because I had my eight year old daughter with me and some teenaged girl kept screaming F--- BUSH right behind us on our side of the street.

Sorry to ditch y'all. Next time I come solo.

According the the Wapo the lefties were "generally good natured and orderly, waving hundreds of colorful placards and chanting slogans"

Not from where I was standing. They were an angry, profane, hateful lot. Not all, of course, but enough. You should have seen the writing on some of their "colorful" signs.

So, who measures crowds in the tens of thousands?

This verbage was obviously taken right of a press release.

I was there and met Josh personally. Had lunch with him too. He is truly a great American. It was great to see the lefties try to tell him that if he loves the country he should enlist. Duh!!

HI, Jim.

"a guy i know" in the US Capitol Police guessed the crowd of LUNATICS,BIGOTS, WIERDOS, FOOLS, CREEPS, CRETINS & HATERS from the FAR LEFT at about 15 HUNDRED.

i suspect that he (rather than the Washington "Daily Worker Post) was CORRECT!

All morning long on Fox radio news they were claiming, to paraphrase, that "although organizers had originally planned for 50,000, they were now telling park police that the number could reach hundreds of thousands."

What a joke!

Our Constitution in Action would have been calling out the Guard and arresting all these traitors.

I heard (radio) Lynn Woolsey (Ca) give her lousy diatribe. Then came Maxine Watters.

Arrest, convict and execute!

What Price will there be

with our own Freedom at stake
right here at home,
with an Enemy that's now
just around the corner and
...up your street..?


NEVER FORGET

The DC FOX affiliate, WTTG 5, just ran a clip of Hanoi Jane's speech during their 10:00 News. Jane said she was sick of all the lies that had been said about her participation in the Vietnam War. Sickening!

A woman from the NY Times wanted to interview me at the rally. I asked her why she was even there. I told her that the Times would never even report that their had been a counter-protest.
