Birthers, Remember GW Bush's "Free Speech" zones?
You should be sooo thankful Obama is president or your asses would have been placed blocks away in a chain-link fenced Free Speech Zone far-removed from the venue(Gawd Bless Amerika!).

I am torn between being glad they are a thing of the past and wishing you were forced into them. Better yet, declared an enemy combatant and disappeared. Reap what you sow my friends.

1. They don't have memories. All they know is what FOX tells them right now.
Whatever is the truth today has always been the truth. That's how it works for morons.

2. WBush the Poser President..always in the Photo Ops...w/ selected audiences? How scamming is that?
President Obama is the REAL DEAL...

W Bush is a FRAUD of a Human....not even close to being a MAN...

The Perfect CRONY, Puppet, Prop.....

The only American President to get Mass Mooned

He really fucked up our Nation with stupid nefarious Decisions...based on the needs of his supporters and not of the nation..

The GOP has its pants down but still trying to recapture past glory and control....they have fucked themselves into a corner

The GOP has been reduced to rubble

BOSTON -- The estimated 5,000 protesters at the Democratic National Convention this week have so far bumped heads over their political differences. In some cases, they have even barred one another from their scheduled (and permitted) events.

But activists have been largely united in one civil action: their boycott of the so-called free-speech zone carved out by the U.S. Secret Service and local authorities, the only spot where protesters will be able to shout their messages to the delegates arriving on buses in a nearby parking lot.

The protesters are also coordinating actions outside the free-speech zone by sending text messages on their wireless phones. Some protesters for a short time Monday converted the zone into a mock prison camp by donning hoods and marching in the cage with their hands behind their backs.

The protest zone, which most people here simply call "the cage," is beneath an elevated section of disused subway tracks near a newly paved bus parking lot.

...Quakers and other anti-war activists being put on no-fly and terrorist watch lists.

You can tell how well they remember it from the whole Homeland Security report flap from a few months back, and they wailed about how the commie gummint was targeting them for exercising their Constitutional rights.

9. I'd like to see them corralled for a few minutes just to hear the
hue and cry from the GOP. They could dish it out for decades (our way or the highway) but the gutless bastards really can't take what they dish out.:spank:
