Protesters in several US cities held anti-war rallies Saturday to mark the fifth anniversary of the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq, March 20th. More rallies are planned in coming days in other U.S. cities. Mike O'Sullivan reports, several thousand joined an anti-war protest in Los Angeles.
Marchers chanted and some carried flag-draped coffins as speakers demanded that U.S. troops come home.
Sharaf Mowjood of the Council on American-Islamic Relations says the continued presence of American troops is worsening conditions in Iraq, and diverting attention from domestic U.S. problems, including rebuilding New Orleans. The city was devastated by Hurricane Katrina in 2005.
We need to pull out immediately. That's the main thing right now we need to do. It's a conundrum as it is," he said. "So it's in a situation where the best viable option is to pull out because you have a lot of these internal problems you have to deal with, health care, sub-prime mortgage crisis, Katrina, all that. We need to work on those issues first."
Members of religious, labor and community groups joined the Los Angeles demonstration. Madelyn MacKay, a Quaker, says the protests are sending a message to the candidates in the November 4 presidential election.
It's getting really hard to tell the satire from what is supposed to be taken seriously. I'll presume this is the latter.
Fox to Farmer: you'd better let me in to that henhouse. It's best for us.
The Enemy Within...
This is like Viet Nam all over again, only worse.
Interesting strategy by CAIR -- attempt to gain black converts to Islam by playing the Katrina card. I suspect the "U.S. gov't created AIDS to commit genocide against the black community" and "the CIA plants drugs in the inner cities to keep the black man down" cards aren't far behind.
This time, the Lame Stream Media cannot and will not defeat this nation as it did in Viet Nam. Too many patriots with too many outlets to let it happen. Time will come when we will rise up and kick the living crap out of these cowards.
Do you think Islam is a serious threat to our Judeo-Christian heritage?

"And we haven't won it," these sumbitches cry! "Longer...
than World War Two!" their Democrats allies add, "...while the new Iraqi Government never passes the needed laws!"
Ya know...
we had some 14 million men in uniform and a "Shoot to kill any German or Jap at any time!" rules of engagement policy in World War Two!
And BTW it took the Founding Fathers from July 4, 1776 until May 29, 1790, (That is 14 years!) to get the Constitution written and ratified by all 13 states, so give me a break, bitch!
I voted.
And we still have a military presence in Europe...(that should drive nancy bonkers...oops, too late)
