I'm damn glad the protestors were ignored...

Your protest time was time ill-spent, and ill-advised.

Actually, I can't think of a more patriotic use of time than to protest injustice. I'm sure it pails in comparison to the time Cheney will spend reading his Halliburton stock reports.

It may have been time wasted from the point of view of stopping the usurper from waging his pet war, but it re-energized the protest movement in the US, which bin Laden had pretty well succeeded in knocking out.

It was not ill-advised. Your foreign adventure was ill-advised. But you aren't the one paying the price in blood, so you can be happy and dance on their graves all you want. Tens of thousands dead, and new Islamic state in the making, the utter destruction of civilization's history, and you think the Prez was well advised.

Do you even pay any attention to anything besides FOX? They are completely clueless as to what they are doing in Iraq. All they have managed to do was destroy the country. Idiots! Supreme IDIOTS!

Sure, without fighting wars with other people's money and other people's children, the Republican Party wouldn't have a foreign policy.

Number of Congressmen with children in the military: 1

It was a waste of time in that it accomplished zilch.
At least had you become a Human Shield, you might have your brain working right again by now.

But we didn't accomplish zilch.

I'll agree that you probably made alot of people late for work by blocking traffic.

*chegitz points to the creation of four or five very large potest organizations which haen't stood down with the end of the war. "We're gonna bring the Usurper down!"

[Sava]

Actually, I think the media coverage of the protests accomplished a lot. It showed the rest of the world that Americans aren't all stupid, greedy, war-mongering fools.

[SlowwHand]

So what, Che? Because you have a lot of buddies blowing it, it's ok that you do too?

I saw where a guy jumped off a bridge. Feel free.

[chequita guevara]

We have no intention of following you off the side of the bridge, Sloww. Just stop trying to take the rest of us with you.

[Sava]

Having you been paying attention Che? Sloww will make someone else jump off the bridge for him.

[SlowwHand]

You could have spent time protesting something meaningful, but nooooo.

And to make it all the worse, you still continue to do the same.

Pick a battle that makes sense.
Iraq didn't, and doesn't.

[Sava]

When an Iraqi commits a terrorist attack against the US on the scale of 9-11, you might change your tune.

Well, I'm glad you agree. Maybe now we can get after the Pakistanis, Saudis, and al-Qaeda while settling the ignored dispute on the Korean peninsula.
