“On August 29th, 2007 at 11:14 am, Tantor said:
The protest scene in Washington, DC, and perhaps most of the nation, is undergoing a remarkable shift where the anti-war protests are waning while the counter-protests are waxing full. The past giant anti-war marches of some 50,000 lefty loons have shrunk partly due to the inevitable bickering of the Marxist control freak factions which organize them but also due to a general distaste for the creeps who march in them. Some of the naive liberal dupes who march in these are catching on that the ANSWER Stalinists who organize them are merely using them to man a protest battering ram against America.
There were only a couple dozen Freeper counter-protestors versus the hordes of protestors at every giant Washington protest until the March on the Pentagon this year, when the Gathering of Eagles matched their numbers, about ten thousand versus ten thousand. Let me tell you, the one thing protestors hate is protestors counter-protesting them. They’re against it. The lefties want a monopoly on protesting, on free speech.
The GOE scared away some of ANSWER’s celebrity speakers, who wouldn’t set foot outside of their limos if their anti-American opinions were challenged. The GOE had enough numbers to form a gauntlet at the Lincoln Memorial through which the protestors had to pass, a sobering reminder to them that their anti-American sentiments were challenged by the majority of Americans.
One good ole boy small town cop/military veteran from down South told me he watched three young kids walk up to the protest. When they saw all the vets gathered there to counter-protest, they dropped their protest signs on the ground and left, saying, “This isn’t fun.” While the ANSWER wolves who run these protests are deeply committed to their cause, most of the sheep who follow them are not. They come to protests to party. It’s like Mardi Gras for them. When vets show up en masse to challenge them, the dopey sophomore party-protestors shrink in the face of it and flee. Go to their protest and puncture their fun.
The canary in the coal mine of Washington protests is the despicable Code Pink protest at Walter Reed Army Medical Center every Friday night from 7 PM to 9 PM. The Freepers have been counter-protesting them in a war of attrition for over two years now, whittling down the numbers of the protestors from fifty regulars to the last dirty half dozen. A couple months ago, one of the Code Pink leaders came out to the protest and called the troops the true terrorists in Iraq. That’s how Code Pink supports the troops it purports to “love.”
In the past before a big Saturday protest, some of the moonbats would show up the night before at Walter Reed. They don’t do that anymore because the attention span of a moonbat is very short. However, if you are going to the GOE counter-protest of this coming ANSWER commie protest, you might think about getting in early and heading up Georgia Avenue Friday night to the front gate of Walter Reed to join the pro-troops Freeper counter-protest. They’ll be the ones waving The Flag. Maybe you might even stop at Walmart and pick up some boxes of snacks for the wounded troops inside. But most of all, turn out in big numbers to put a stake through the heart of this slanderous protest of our wounded warriors recovering from grievous wounds in Walter Reed.
See you there.”
Reminder that we are having a Pro War/Troop Rally in Boulder Colorado on Sunday September 9th, at 7AM. See YOU there!

Where will the Patriots be on September 15th?

“Timed to upstage the crucial September testimony about Iraq of Gen. David Petraeus and Amb. Ryan Crocker, the ANSWER organization (Act Now to Stop War and End Racism) will hold a rally/protest in Washington, DC. But they will not be the only voice: on the other side of the issue, ANSWER will be challenged by Eagles, a gathering of all sorts of Americans who don’t want to lose this war.

There are many diversions available to most Americans on a Saturday in September — lawn mowing, children’s sporting events, and of course, the college football season.

But every so often in history, a need arises that puts all else in perspective, and most diversions are relegated to a place far down the list of priorities. This is one of those times.

Anti-American, anti-democratic forces have designated September 15 as the day they will assemble in Washington, and attempt by subterfuge, diversion, misinformation and misrepresentation to again sway the political will of the US Congress, and ultimately force the Bush Administration to accept a premature withdrawal from Iraq.

The ANSWER-types will be working from a template used by John Kerry, Jane Fonda and their ilk in the 60s and 70s that proved successful in convincing Congress that the Vietnam War could not be won, even as US and South Vietnamese forces and our allies won victory upon victory.

This time the lose-the-war demonstrators will attempt to convince Congress to abandon Iraq and set the stage for surrender in the War on Terror, even as Gen. David Petraeus is reporting that our military efforts in Iraq are succeeding.”
