FReepers counter Downing Street Memo Rally (all 7 of them!)
FReepers counter Downing Street Memo Rally (all 7 of them!)

This is a beautiful thing. All 7 members of the DC chapter of freeperville stagged a staggering counter protest to yesterday's impeachment rally. You can't believe this until you see it. Not exactly shock or awe.

1. I can't help it -
Try as I might to be hard, I just can't help but feel a tiny bit sorry for those still trying to cling to any fiber of hope that Bush is actually a good man. I'd like to hate them all, but sometimes, that Liberal compassion creeps up on me and I just pity the poor deluded souls.

Though I am shocked that FR actually posted this pic. It doesn't make them look all that good.

8. You HAD to say it, didn't you?!
Now I feel sorry for them too! They're so pathetic.

Note: However this doesn't mean I loathe everything they stand for.

16. Agreed!
I loathe their principles, but pity them for being so misguided. I think a lot of them are waking up, though. Slow, but sure, it's happening.

18. Why do they have lawn chairs?
:shrug: I thought at rallies you stud and cheered and heard some inspirational speeches for your cause. Then again I haven't ever been to one.

33. I noticed that, only four flags for seven people
How can those other three wrap themselves? I also notice that not a one of them is in any sort of good shape at all. Fat from sitting on their asses all day writing hate messages.

7. They won't admit this
But it's less fun to be an angry white male conservative when all of your guys are in power. For 40 years conservatives positioned themselves as folksy, crusading populist "outsiders" against the "liberal establishment". Well, they can't do that anymore, so they are just now coming to the realization that it's just not as much fun to sit around being a cheerleader for their government--kind of an irony for the limited government crowd, huh?

Damn right... No offence to fat people, but it looks like some of them follow Rush's diet plan as well as his gospel.

10. Come on when you pan the camara out it's clear
the streets are filled with counterprotestors 10's of them,traveling in packs as large as 1 maybe even two. Clearly the photographer is trying to hide the truth here. :sarcasm:

15. They just can't admit that Bush is a liar and that they were misled
First off, Saddam did not lie. He said he had no WMDs
Second, isn't the US responsible for many of those killed by Saddam? I think so in at least three ways. (1)the US armed Saddam with WMDs, took him on as an ally for his oil and for his battle with Iran since we were angry at Iran for unseating the Shah and for taking US hostages. (2) We incited the Kurds to and other Saddam opposition to rise up and overthrow Saddam's government. What's a leader to do if his government is threatened to be overthrown by people just evil and vicious as his own regime? What would a GW Bush do if the Panthers or some other group decided to try to overthrow the US government? We incited these people and then left them in the lurch, never minding that they were really insurgents trying to overthrow their country's government (tyrannical as it was). (3)US sanctions and bombings and our backing of Kurdish killing Iraqis has to account for at least 2/3 of those mass grave holdings. We need to get a grip.

20. Small minority, yes, but I do admire them...
They will stand and support their leader. As misguided as it is, I can't help but respect that. I just wish they'd set the kool-aid down and wake up.

They are completely clueless. It's more tragic than funny.

31. What will happen if...
justice prevails and the Chimp is undeniably exposed as a liar and impeached? Will these people remain in denial or will they turn on him and cry about him letting them down, betraying the troops, the flag and the white right-wing republican way of life they hold so dear? Will his only crime be being found out?

35. You know the routine: Left wing elitist media, anti-christian communists..
It's always the same. Only Cheney seems to be able to craft anything different about us that's at all creative.

32. Monica's Gate

How can people who still obsess over Monica Lewinsky yet excuse the lies of George Bush have any credibility whatsoever?

36. Getting laid is way worse than killing hundreds of thousands of iraqis
especially if you're pro-life. Come on: Get your priorities straight. The only good indian, I mean jew, I mean atheist, I mean arab, is a dead arab, or, whatever....They're all different from me, that I know for sure.

Honey, hand me the remote....

38. Like an abuse victim who keeps defending her abuser...
These poor souls. I truly feel sorry for them. They keep clinging by their fingernails to the misguided belief that Bush is a "moral" guy.

Look at all 7 of them! They must have made a big impact down there!
