[pedo]

5. if you want to protest a war

and you want to be taken seriously, don't do it like this. you only make yourself look like a complete idiot.

[Mithreal]

6. Umm, no, I disagree. Any citizen that wants to protest the war

should protest however his or her conscience will permit. If it is unseemly to some, then too bad.

7. And what have you been doing the past six years?

I thought it was very moving.

And even if the Senators thought the protesters looked like idiots, they knew what the hell point the protestors were making.
Seems in America over the past six years, any type of protest was only done by "idiots," while everybody else sat at home on their asses and let Bush and his enablers commit war crimes - in other words NO protest was o.k.

Congrats. You've got the right-wing talking points I've been seeing for the past six years down to a 'T.' Welcome to DU.

9. "complete idiot"... right.

let's see... MLK- complete idiot?
Gandhi- complete idiot?

Enjoy your stay, "pedo"! (is that short for pedophile?)

12. did they pretend to be ghosts

in the senate chamber?

[rainy]

11. Recommend a better way as writing letters don't work. Street protests don't

work. Voting certainly does not work.

[Capt. America]

10. These protesters are patriots.

[pedo]

13. did someone burp into the microphone at the end?

LOL
