OK, let's combine into a single thread(easier to bookmark) all our favorite images of the stupid anti-war protests. Ironic or altered, all are welcome. Here's a few to start: On the other hand... This one actually was pretty good...

<p>Dozens of flag-waving rallies for American troops in Iraq look like spontaneous, grass-roots gatherings. But many are orchestrated by conservative political groups, just as anti-war protests are led by peace groups and activists on the political left.</p> <p>Rallies for the troops took place this weekend in cities and towns including New York, San Francisco, Miami, Cleveland, Honolulu, Jacksonville, Concord, N.H., Harrisburg, Pa., and Kingsport, Tenn. More rallies are expected.</p>

We got to Times Square shortly before noon, and there were well over 1000 patriotic people there! We started out up front, but my dad was uncomfortable and we kept going back and back and back and back... Therefore the only speaker photos I have are of the lady from the Christian Coalition and a couple of FReepers.By the time we left, there were at *least* close to 3000 flag-waving, "USA! USA! USA!"-chanting patriots squeezed into the area near the ticker tape in Times Square.I didn't see any other threads on this, so I apologize if this is a duplicate.

During the weekend of March 22-23, the Free Republic Network sponsored or assisted with 105 individual Rally for America events across America. Using the most conservative media estimates, at least 120,000 people attended Rally events. There were no reported arrests. All the national media outlets provided at least some coverage, with much more detailed reporting locally, and the wire services ran dozens of Rally photos. To be sure, ABCNNBCBS paid disproportionate attention to the various peace riots, but the leftists no longer own the streets. The purpose of the ongoing Rally for America is to provide ordinary Americans the...

Pro-war demonstrators wave flags, sing anthems in support of Iraq conflict By Ryan Morgan Denver Post Staff Writer Monday, March 24, 2003 - Several hundred pro-war demonstrators gathered on the Capitol steps Sunday afternoon to wave flags, sing patriotic anthems and endorse the military campaign in Iraq. KHOW radio host Scott Redmond praised those who came for making a positive symbolic gesture of support, and said they stood in stark contrast to peace activists who have held disruptive anti-war protests. "We are here to demonstrate the appropriate way to demonstrate," he said. "There is yet another voice out there, and...

<p>Korean War veteran Don Wylie attended a pro-war rally Saturday because he wants American troops to know they have support.</p> <p>"I believe in America, and I'm sick and tired of people demonstrating against this," Wylie said. "We're behind them."</p> <p>Wylie's opinion echoed across the Expo Building at the W.H. Lyon Fairgrounds on Saturday afternoon, where organizers estimated 3,000 people attended the Rally for America.</p>

<p>NEW YORK -- Amid chants of "We Support George" and "U-S-A! U-S-A!," Robert Cuellari held a sign bearing a picture of his 19-year-old son, Air Force Private Robert Cuellari Jr., who is serving in the war. "He's not there for Bush, he's there for you," Cuellari's sign read as the Freehold resident stood amid 1,300 people gathered in Times Square yesterday for a rally to support the military effort in Iraq.</p> <p>"I don't want my kid coming back to anti-war protests. It should be unconditional love for these kids and the country," Cuellari said.</p>

The Hollywood Resistance Force was out in strength today Sunday, March 23, 2003. Along with around three to five hundred other conservatives, the Los Angeles Chapter of the Free Republic Network made sure Michael Moore (or less) had to pass by fourteen hundred United States flags on the way in to receive his Oscar.  Every leftist who sputtered nonsense from the podium, had to pass us by.  We waved our flags and shouted Liberate Iraq, Free the Iraqis, L - A - P - D (a supportive chant for the Los Angeles Police Department officers on site) and other phrases...

From the establishment media's astonishing lack of coverage of the patriotic rallies and obsessive devotion to the appeasement demonstrations, you can't prove whether they're biased or just inexcusably ignorant. Now the Chicago Tribune has inadvertantly admitted they do know what's going on but just don't feel like covering the news. "Some of the biggest rallies this month have endorsed President Bush's strategy against Saddam Hussein, and the common thread linking most of them is Clear Channel Worldwide Inc., the nation's largest owner of radio stations," the Tribune complained Thursday. "In a move that has raised eyebrows in some legal...

Please join us one and all for our Support the Troops rally in Medford Square, MA this Saturday. We are not an orginization with any other agenda besides supporting our troops, our country and our president (more than I can say for the anti-war groups). We have a good crowd already to show up and I would love to be overwhelmed by a huge presence. Bring American flags, supportive signs, and good spirit.

Are there any places in the Chicagoland area that might have a pro american demonstration, or any groups going to be on the other side of the protestors demonstrating?

Is anyone up for a pro-troop, pro-America counter protest in the Concord or Manchester New Hampshire area? I know it's short notice, but the NH peace crowd will be meeting in Manchester tomorrow. Check out the NH Peace Response web site for details about their activities. http://snhpeaceresponse.org/ How about next week? I would like to link up with like minded folks and have some good clean fun supporting our troops. A New Hampshire friend of mine is stationed on the USS Kitty Hawk, we communicate via email on a regular basis. Chris really would love to see some digital pictures...
