I don't know what was said on the post you replied to, Jon; but you won't be alone. We don't have the big bucks to hire buses and pay airfare for big name speakers, so our crowd won't be huge. What it lacks in number, it will more than make up for in patriotic spirit and good humor. Plus, we all bathe regularly.

We've been holding rallies and counter-protests against the commies of ANSWER/WWP/ISO/Code Pink/etc. since September 29, 2001 - and we seem to have them supremely annoyed at us.

This past Memorial Day weekend, on a whim, I went to observe and photograph the speakers and the signs held at an ANSWER-sponsored (and co-sponsored by the Muslim American Society) "Muslim Solidarity" rally; and Brian Becker (WWP commie) and Mara VerHeyden-Hilliard (ANSWER, etc. America-hating lefty) went ballistic on me. One person, a short and dumpy middle-aged broad like me, just standing around quietly - taking it all in... and they came completely unglued.

Mara VerHeyden-Hilliard, whose public image is one of a cool and rational "human rights, civil rights, people's lawyer," turned into a junior high school brat, tossing childish insults in my face and whispering to her green-hatted "observers" just before they surrounded me and blocked my view of the stage and speakers. Others shoved me and made specific threats of violence and severe physical harm. My rights were violated, and VerHeyden-Hilliard didn't come to my rescue. Imagine that. (Kristinn was on the edge of the crowd, and he brought in the LEOs who had some words with the instigators)

It was a golden moment, albeit a threatening one to me. I'm sure they were humiliated at their turnout that day - fewer than we have had at some of our rallies ;-) They must now be very worried that their movement is in a serious QUAGMIRE.

I will continue to do whatever is in my power to unmask the "anti-war" movement's RED ROOTS, and to help spread the word to the media and the general public. And that is why our rallies are important. Without a counterpoint to their ranting "peace" rallies, they have the media all to themselves.

I have no problem with folks who are genuinely morally or religiously against war. I have a big problem with humans who lie about their motives, who mislead as to their goals, who hide their communist ties, and who wish to destroy America.

I'll see you on the 25th!
(24th for dinner, wherever it will be)

look forward to it!!

The person whose post was removed had just signed up today and was second guessing his/her support for the war on terror, besides asking disingenuous questions about the size of the other rally versus ours and implying that the war wasn't popular any more.

You must have "supremely annoyed" the ANSWER people to generate such animosity from them merely by your presence at one of their events. Way to go -- I'll watch your back. Just for the record, how many hits have you gotten on the pictures you took at the Muslin Solidarity rally?
