Group of able bodied men who would rather follow Cindy Sheehan around the country than sign up for the Iraq War.

1. What a bunch of bullies.
You get the impression that if that camera weren't there, they'd be pummeling that guy.

3. I'd like to see those bullies come to Chicago...
and gang up on people. Honest to God I don't know one person around here who supports the war. When I see shit like this, I'm so thankful for the big cities.

19. What would I do if they came here...I'd pray our military was here and
not in Iraq. 9/11 had nothing to do with Iraq. US in Iraq is building up the terrorists who want to kill us. They're just looking for somebody to kill, best go back and have another beer. They have no army, air planes, so the only way they can come here is if we don't have police or intelligence to catch them sneaking in. US in Iraq has nothing to do with preventing them from coming here. Does the US need to cut some more veteran health benefits before these guys get how they are being used. Why bother to throw pearls before swine?
See how he changed tunes after yelling 9/11 when the other guy said Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11.

Only someone who wants to use fear to control you shouts what are you going to do if they come here. Terror is everywhere...help! Now if he was talking about the Iraq army or something, but he's talking about the Bush boogeyman. We survived 50 yrs. of nukes aimed at our heads so this talk doesn't do a thing to make me afraid. Keeping "them" from coming here is not an excuse to destroy other countries.

I'm like your big( or in that guy's case...little) brother, you know...the one that keeps you out of trouble, keeps you from getting your ignorant head shot off. I don't want to send anyone over there, even if they are too slow to see what's really happening.

2. There is no point engaging people like that...
It's so tempting, but you'll never get far debating with idiots. This is why we need to spend more money on our public schools.

8. They are violent people who like violence
Some of the things they were saying were just so over the top. Did you hear the one guy say these people have been attacking us for 200 years??

9. Yep I heard it..
And a lot more bullshit too... I couldn't even play a video game online last night without debating one of these fascist assholes for an hour? Telling me that if I didn't like this Country then to move... WTF? I try and defend this Countries constitution, troops and reputation and all I get in return is rhetoric bullshit from these Bushbots?
How many of us actually do what this man did in the Video? Confront Bushites on a regular basis? I do it daily... Just hoping that I can get one of these brain dead acid babies to actually listen..

The only thing they know is what they were indoctrinated to know "America is the Biggest Baddest Toughest Nation in the World, BRING IT ON".. The problem with this is that Iraq did not BRING IT ON, So why are we there?

Fucking Morons!:mad:

10. "WHAT IF YOU ARE WRONG?"
Edited on Thu Jul-19-07 08:49 AM by YOY
Haven't been wrong yet dude.

How about you?

Bringin up 9-11??? ABOUT IRAQ??? What a f***ing asshat.

FOR THE LAST TIME ASSHOLES: THERE IS NO GODDAMN CONNECTION BETWEEN IRAQ AND 9-11. IT'S JUST AN EXCUSE TO SPEND DEFENSE BUDGET MONEY AND STEAL OIL.

IT'S A RACKET AND YOU BOUGHT INTO IT. WAKE THE FUCK UP.

11. The guy in the blue t-shirt was woefully underwhelming.
He didn't refute any of the pro-war standards. He didn't even point out that "September eleventh" was perpretated not by Iraqis, but by Saudis who went uninvestigated when their suspicious actions were brought to the attention of the "proper" authorities by regular Americans before the attack happened. And that Saudis who might have been relatives of and may have had information regarding Usama Bin Laden were whisked out of the country on private planes by the American government when all other planes were under an emergency grounding.

Quite a disappointing performance, in my opinion. I was actually more sympathetic toward the stance of the "rednecks" in this video; they did not get violent in this video, even though they were vehement and "look like the type" who would get violent.

Not too impressive if you ask me.

14. What's with the rubber ducky?
Is that an indication about how seriously they take this war? Playing with a stupid rubber ducky? Do you think these guys had any alcohol before they showed up to protest?

16. That is just sad.
These guys have been brainwashed with propaganda and just repeat it over and over. The guy giving them shit isn't doing anything but saying, educate America? They don't get it! It's obvious they don't get what he's saying. I gotta tell ya, they kept on saying, what ya gonna do if they come here. I got news for ya, they are here and they got here through our system, then they flew into the WTC. Also, the guy calling the lib a fucking idiot has a cross on his chest and made a snide remark about kicking his ass, would Jesus approve of that?

That argument was pointless. Both parties had good people in it, it's just the pro Bush party had ignorant folks spewing right wing talking points and actually doing nothing but being angry that the guy told them they could go sign up for the war since Bush has a 42 year old age limit now.
