Is it really a discusion when all you our going to do is pat yourselfs on the back for blindly being againist the use of force, no matter what the situation is? My advice, do something useful, stay home and play PS2. |

Sorry, Ron. Call us what you will. But there were millions of us "backpatters" in the streets nationally and internationally this past weekend demanding an end to Bush war and his continuing meglomania. The resistance movement will only grow. I hope it ends with Bush and his cohorts confined in 4 by 8 foot cages for the rest of their lives, convicted for war crimes against humanity. We can't achieve this by staying home. PS2 will play out in the streets of our nation and the world. Stay tuned.... |
