Hey, KKKarl, clever move only giving parade route space to ANSWER. |
|
We wouldn't want anybody that represents mainstream liberals - MoveOn maybe?- out there tearing your dumbass boy a new one, right?
No, you knew you could count on the well-meaning but naive ANSWER folks to chant their hootenanny chants and call for unity with the peoples of Cuba and rail against Israel etc. etc.
(sigh) I guess I should be grateful they didn't invite the REAL far-out ones from "United for Peace and Justice"...

But I'm pretty sure I heard that ANSWER was the only anti-Bush group allotted a space.
I was happy to see Cynthia McKinney, though.

from somebody in DC, the space was given to them by the city, as revenge for the Homeland Security cost...

everyone takes shots at ANSWER, but the fact of the matter (as far as I know) is that they are the ones who did the legwork, they are the ones who got the stands set up, they are the ones who are suing the DHS over access to space...all that takes a hell of a lot of hard work.
They have my unconditional support.

8. I was there and there were plenty of mainstream liberals protesting |
|
in and outside the ANSWER space. Moms with kids, older couples, Vietnam vets, professionals with the day off, etc.
