Thanks for the reply, I know what you mean.

At a rally in Berkeley last month, a 6' guy tried to wrestle a microphone from Melanie Morgan and in a few seconds he was on the ground with a mouth full of dirt with a Gold Star Father Vet on top of him.

Their Religion IS Peace

Filed under: Rallies — Sean @ 9:04 pm

Tonight, seven fellow sheepdogs stood watch as the flock ‘protested’ our five year anniversary in Iraq. We withstood the rain and the usual nonsensical slurs from the not-so-peaceful gathering, but one stood out.

We showed up first. Karen Porter was so livid that Rich would counter-protest a ‘religious’ gathering that she told him to “go to hell”. (Not so peacefully, I might add.)

So, it was a religious gathering?

Is today a religious holiday that I didn’t know about? If it really was a religious gathering, why wasn’t it at a church? I doubt that their congregation meets on the courthouse steps every Wednesday. Then again, this is their religion. They respect God as little as they do our troops to say that their infantile candlelit vigil was anything other than political whinging.

I think his last word is supposed to be "whining." Hmmm, I spell like that sometimes.

No, you were right the first time. “Whinging” is how we say the word DownUnder. Often appended by the word “Pom”. Denotes someone who is shrill and constant and unreasonable and inconsolable with baseless complaints.

It's a British way of saying/spelling 'whining' also.

I would have paid good money to see that, and even more to help give him the beating of his life.

"Whinging" or "whingeing" is the word used in England and Australia to describe what we would call "whining".

Whinging is Aussie for whining.
