What happened to the strong freeper opposition in D.C?
Did I miss the thread where the freepers pushed back?
I expected there to be hoards of valiant members of the 101st keyboard battalion holding back the angry, unruly citizens in Washington.

Is this:



really all we had to work with?

What happened? Did their order of portapotties get lost?

3. This is pathetic. THIS is our opposition?
I'm starting to wonder if there are really only two dozen mouth-breathers over at freeperland, each armed with ten userIDs, and each maniacally alternating and posting under said userIDs in an effort to convince the lurkers that their numbers are indeed legion.

Maybe it's time we smoked these jokers out of their spider-holes and did a little census taking.

8. Or maybe there just wasn't enough money in it for them.
The RNC should have started handing dollar bills out like candy.

Damn. And there I was expecting a Brooks Brothers riot, part deux.

6. Are those two people in the back protesters?
I couldn't tell. Maybe they're gawkers.

Why is that freepers can't put on a good demonstration?? I mean when I've watched all the great activists get out there...they just fill the streets.

What's up, freeps? Don't you know you're in the minority??

standards.

19. That poor old guy...
He looks like one of D.C.'s many homeless.
They probaby handed him the sign to hold while they snapped a picture of him... "There's a bottle of wine in it for you!"

Oh wait... "THEY" implies more than one person.
hahahah

17. Of all times NOT to go to D.C. . . .
I would have just sat in front of them laughing my bohls off. That's got to be the DUMBEST protest ever. It's the Charge of The Delusional White Men that Suck. Or the Collection of Men Without Dates.
