Answers for ANSWER [GOES, FR Mention]
The Washington Times ^ | September 14, 2007 | The Washington Times

Posted on 09/14/2007 7:31:32 PM PDT by mdittmar

Tomorrow's antiwar protest on the National Mall is going to be so big, it's gotten notorious activist Cindy Sheehan to come out of "retirement." The nutty left-wing organization Act Now to Stop War and End Racism (ANSWER) has coordinated a rally at the White House, followed by a march to the Capitol and a "die-in," where 1,000 people are expected to lie down in front of the U.S. Capitol to symbolize the soldiers and Iraqis who have died in the war in Iraq. It is a tasteless and offensive PR stunt.

It's no secret that ANSWER supporters are among the most radical fringe of the antiwar movement. An ANSWER founder is Ramsey Clark, a former U.S. Attorney General, a member of the Communist World Worker's Party and one of Saddam Hussein's defense attorneys. And we can't forget Mrs. Sheehan, from CodePink, who referred to terrorists as "freedom fighters." ANSWER's Web site is plastered with ads for Che Guevara shirts and urges readers that "protesting is not enough." Indeed, the movement is lurching toward civil disobedience, since they can't seem to drum up enough support for their cause among mainstream Americans.

Those Americans who support the war against terrorism and believe in the mission in Iraq will be out in numbers tomorrow as well. A counter-protest and demonstration coordinated by the Gathering of Eagles, the Free Republic and Families Unite for our Troops and their Mission, among others, will be the voice of the men and women fighting for our freedom and our rights.

What they need is a good old special effects massacre...... You have the actor “cops” just start wiping out actor “protesters.” The real protesters will freak out and run away. Then once dispersed have the “dead” protesters rise and walk home all caught on camera.

That’s a great article by the WT! I don’t know if you’ve seen this that was posted at Hot Air earlier today.

We ought to think of creative ways to disrupt their disruption.
Maybe enlist some beekeepers, or have a Dog’s Day on the Mall. See how well they “play dead” when their being swarmed with bees and having their crotches sniffed.

The big question is, where does ANSWER get its money?

Rumors include North Korea, where their head Brian Becker has visited on occasion. I believe he was also a good buddy of Saddam’s before his timely demise.

Does anyone know where ANSWER’s money comes from? If that were proven, they would be pariahs.

Karo syrup and red food coloring.

Apply to head neck and clothes then run screaming at them “Run for your lives!”

A sure way to break up a protest.

But they’re already going to be doing that themselves with their anti-war kabuki theatre.
How about fire ants instead?

Just curious, did someone find what I wrote offensive enough to tag?

I’ve been thinking about what would really get to these people. The best I could come up with would be to hand out employment applications to Wal-Mart. Then I realized that Wal-Mart deserves better.

I thought I could put my finger on the answer to your question of money, but I have not found it exactly. To get a good sense of what we are up against read, Horowitz, The Shadow Party and Unholy Alliance. He lays out, documents, and explains How Goerge Soros, Hillary Clinton and sixties radicals seized control of the Democratic party. The money comes from Soros and other billionaries as well as the Ford foundation. I have learned a lot from reading Horowitz who explains some confusing things about the 60’s. You will also understand imigration better, too.
