Quote of the Day by Erasmus

"Bob Nardo is one of them. He and other young Republicans from American University recently gathered to wave U.S. flags outside the French embassy in Washington - a show of displeasure for that country's lack of support. "

Bob can find the phone number of his local Army, Air Force, Navy, or Marine recruiter, right in the phone book. I encourage him to phone today.

"Kelli Stripling, a 23-year-old loan officer from Lawrenceville, Ga., says she's showing her support for U.S. troops by refusing to buy concert tickets and CDs for the country group the Dixie Chicks. "

Kelly would show a lot more support by becoming a non-commissioned officer in the military service. Not buying Dixie Chicks tickets don't cut much cheese when it comes to a war, I'm afraid.

"The U.S.-led invasion of Iraq is awakening the activist spirit in America's youth, with many adding their voices to the war debate"

There is not short supply of voices; it's minds able to think & reason where a lot of our activist friends on the left seem to find themselves in short supply. Anyone can walk out on the street and make a lot of noice - So what....

Isn't it amazing how the media fall all over themselves to report this nonsene?

As Muhammed, the Iraqi Kurd who lost 30 members of his family to Saddaam, said on the radio to one of the leaders of the Seattle Peace March:

"You are all nothing but chirping birds!"

``I don't think protest rallies change minds,'' says Beattie, a 24-year-old Brooklyn resident who opposes the war. ``If the masses really wanted to make a difference in politics, they should voice those opinions through petitions and letters'' to their members of Congress.

This is probably the most well-thought-out and reality-based remark of any I've ever heard from the anti-war crowd.
