Hahahahaha!!!
Notice the numbers of protestors vs. numbers of the morans. :rofl:

(AP) Opponents of the war in Iraq marched Saturday in a clamorous day of protest, song and remembrance of the dead, some showing surprisingly diverse political views even as they spoke with one loud voice in wanting U.S. troops home.

(snip)

Police Chief Charles Ramsey, noting that organizers had hoped to draw 100,000 people, said, "I think they probably hit that."

A few hundred people in a counter-demonstration in support of Bush's Iraq policy lined the protest route near the FBI building. The two groups shouted at each other, a police line keeping them apart.

(snip)

Supporters of Bush's policy in Iraq assembled in smaller numbers to get their voice heard in the day's anti-war din. About 150 of them rallied at the U.S. Navy Memorial.

Gary Qualls, 48, whose Marine reservist son, Louis, died last year in the insurgent stronghold of Fallujah, asked: "If you bring them home now, who's going to be responsible for all the atrocities that are fixing to happen over there? Cindy Sheehan?" :wtf:

2. My answer to Gary Qualls, 48....
The dubya of mass deception is and always will be responsible for all those atrocities to which you refer.

3. Not only do the counter-protestors represent a minority...
...but a particularly complacent one. They're for the war precisely because it means others will have to get off of their asses--or they're rich enough to be used to having people to do such menial tasks for them.

Not a constituency from which you can draw a big crowd of sign-wavers.
