Now, I am perfectly happy to let you serenade all the way to Dublin (via Stonehenge OK?) ar ar the scenic route dontcha know...
I agree..And I also believe had Clinton been in the same situation it would be nothing like this..He would not have gone on lying and misleading to Americans. The bombing Clinton did to Iraq is not even comparable to this quaqmire.

And all my grave shall warmer, sweeter be
For you will bend and tell me that you love me
And I will sleep in peace until you come to me.
Bless yer pointy head, I can think of no better way to visit the Emerald Isle than to float over the countryside and see the majesty from the air...I wish I knew how to play a tin whistle or uillean pipe or even a lap harp...

Check out this bulletin I got on myspace just now :

"I am SO TIRED of this liberal mindset that President Bush is a racist redneck. I'm also tired of liberals BLAMING President Bush for HURRICANES. I'm sick of hearing about what we've "done wrong in Iraq"...etc.

The only reason liberals say that is because that's the only flaw they can make up.
1.) they're jealous because he's a Texan
2.) they know he's going to go down in history as being one of America's greatest presidents
3.) they know he's had the toughest presidency in history and there isn't a liberal in the democratic party that could handle it.

So Kanye West and all the other ignorant people out there... just sit down and try to think of a real reason to hate President Bush... and the good thing for all you ignorant people is...

YOU HAVE FOUR MORE YEARS TO THINK ABOUT REASONS TO HATE HIM!

great feeling huh?

GOD BLESS THE BUSH FAMILY AND AMERICA! wahoooo! "

The photos prove otherwise. There is no flippin' way that there were that many there in DC!

By some accounts the MFWL was the largest rally ever to be held in Washington, or at least since the Vietnam War.

The Ellipse, where ANSWER held its Support The Terrorists rally, is a relatively small space, especially compared to the rest of The National Mall.

You will note that the MFWL crowd completely overflowed the entire Mall, an area many times larger than the Ellipse.

It is because they are not true conservatives.

No rue conservative would go this deep into debt and use the Const. to control our autonomy and freedom, both of which W does with glee.

oy! You have a lot to learn about right-wingers my friend, because if you feel that Mr. Bush is one of them...you are mistaken!

3.) hmmm...I think being President during the Civil War would have been tough, too? The Great Depression? Vietnam War?

And even Fox News is reporting the same thing, so man are you saying Fox News has a liberal bias too ? lol

fox news :

"The demonstration is part of a broader anti-war effort on Capitol Hill organized by United for Peace and Justice, an umbrella group. Representatives from anti-war groups were meeting Monday with members of Congress to urge them to work to end the war and bring home the troops.

The protest following a massive demonstration Saturday on the National Mall that drew a crowd of 100,000 or more, the largest such gathering in the capital since the war began in March 2003.

On Sunday, a rally supporting the war drew roughly 500 participants. Speakers included veterans of World War II and the war in Iraq, as well as family members of soldiers killed in Iraq."

Just because Mr. Bush campaigned in 2000 as a moderate and promoted "compassionate conservatism" does not mean anything. President Bush is pretty far to the right. If you think he's a moderate, what does that make John McCain?

Hey, FOX news is in NO WAY perfect! I just don't see how there could have been hundreds of thousands of people there! NO WAY! It just doesn't add up.

You just don't want to believe it, that's it. But in fact the number doesn't really matter. A few hundred thousand protestors is nothing to the amounts that are now saying in this country that they don't support the war, or the President...MILLIONS
