The irony of the 3,000+ crosses is obviously lost on these protesters. Those deaths were all made voluntarily for the cause these protesters oppose.

In light of that, the last quote is more true than Alviso knows. Alviso and company are only expending a few hours of their lives protesting the war, over 3,000 have died for the cause, and hundreds of thousands of Americans are willing to die for the cause.

What is with these people? Their sons and daughters volunteered. They should honor their choice.

Anyone see the WaPo piece this week on the mother of the lt at Ft Lewis refusing to go to Iraq? He says it's an illegal war and he shouldn't have to go. This from a man who enlisted in 2003! Anyway, the mother is going around Capitol Hill looking for support for her son, which was not to be found. He faces court martial.

They are showing how to totally and completely disrespect their own children. Would sure like to hear what her son would have to say about this. Let the protesters go to Iraq to live and then see what they say.

Maybe it's picking nits, but I think invoking the "T" word is just a bit excessive. I have no problem with them doing their moronic protest. It means nothing, and it accomplishes nothing. I just see it as feeble-minded people blowing off steam (in an irritating, but harmless) fashion.

A disgusting POS like sheehan on the other hand - now that's a case of protest approaching the level of treasonable action. When they meet with our enemies and conspire to damage our country we should step on their necks...

I was delighted to see your quote from Article III. Section 3. The Constitution. This in your profile.

Treason against the United States, shall consist of levying war against them, or adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.

I take the liberty of quoting one, Sir John Harrington, 1561-1612.

Treason doth never prosper, what's the reason? For if it prosper; none dare call it treason.

A little different today, thank heaven. Sir John called it right to a certain extent. If a bunch of radicals start to scream and emote against their own country, and use free speech to do it- it takes a bold person to call them down. If the moguls of the MSM do the same thing, they gather momentum.

Damn their souls
