The anti-war protest rallies as of late have been dismally small, especially those in Washington, DC. It took more than eight (8) years of anti-war protests and civil disobedience to bring the hawks in the Pentagon to their senses and realize that war could not be won militarily or otherwise. How long must this war with Iraq go on before the war-mongers in Washington realize the same lesson. It is blatantly obvious that this war cannot possibly be "won" militarily, if at all.
The only way Bush and his cronies are going to wake up to the fact that most Americans don't approve of his handling of this war is for more people to get personally involved by raising up thier voices in protest. Nationwide protests helped bring the Vietnam War to an end and there is no reason why we can't do the same today, tomorrow, and indefinitely in the future until those arrogant blood-thirsty bastards in Washington come to their senses.

Sadly, youre wrong. Protests will do no good, and the sad reality is that we will be in Iraq until, at the earliest, a new President is elected. The thing to do now is support the man who will get us immediately upon arrival in the White House, and that man, in my opinion, is former Alaska Senator Mike Gravel.

Gee, with the turnout being so small it just goes to show that all these polls and focus groups are quite biased and not worth the paper they are written on. The media that puts this disinformation out is learning you get what you pay for, and you can not fool all of the people even some of the time. They should stop lying to the American public!

Let's see: the nation at large is calling this "another Vietnam," so if Vietnam is any indicator, we've got another 5 years to go...

Want me to raise my voice?
OK
"Kill more insurgent terrorist bastards! Kill those dirty rotten Islamofascist barbarians!! USA troops, kill as many of those SOB's as possible over there so they can't come over here!! Crush, kill, destroy the enemy who wish to kill us!! Yes, wipe them off the face of the Earth so they can't come over here and kill more Americans like they did on 9/11. Blow them away!!!!"
There, I have raised my voice in support of the war effort.
I can just see you now, can't wait to report me and deny me my 1st Amendment right to free speech. Go for it, like the true blue socialist you are.

There is no number. In war people die. Soldiers volunteer and know what they are getting into.
The terrorists thank you for rooting for them.
