silence in Freeperville:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1464672/posts#11



To: billakay

Here's what I think: I'm going!

There's no WMD's, not links between Sadaam & Al Qaeda (Osama/9-11 doesn not = Sadaam/Iraq), and the Times Leader just published an article stating that Iraq is basing their constitution on the Koran, so we're not bringing democracy to them, it's a Theocracy. And I support the troops, because I don't want our boys dying for a war based on a mass of lied.

What exactly are we fighting this war for? The 3 reasons above are all debunked!

And, what exactly would you be protesting in a "counter-protest", based on there being no reason for us to be there? That Sadaam was a bad guy? Well, I don't think getting rid of Sadaam is worth one of our troops dying.

A guerilla war cannot be won.

1. And probably one banning on the way
Idiots. They're like crabs in a bucket. Whenever one tries to climb out, it's dragged back down and eaten.

16. Dammit, now I've got "Crabbuckit" by K-os stuck in my head
Not that it's a bad song to have stuck in my head, mind you.

8. How about we find out who it is....
and invite him/her to join us?

I know, I'm probably certifiably crazy...but this person can THINK!

Just a thought...

IMHO, it takes courage to post something like that over THERE...

:shrug:

12. I have the feeling that many more people will
be examining their positions when it becomes
evident that a growing majority of our population
are willing and able to speak out against this
misadventure.

14. I think it's one of those vortex thingies.
The slippery slope of reason.

They are all afraid to look over the horizon to see peace.

:hippie:
