Protesters, Supporters Descend on D.C.
Published: 9/15/07, 3:45 AM EDT

WASHINGTON (AP) - Thousands of opponents and supporters of the U.S. presence in Iraq will converge Saturday in the nation's capital for a day of demonstrations.

The anti-war ANSWER Coalition is planning a rally at Lafayette Square, followed by a march to the Capitol and "die-in," where thousands plan to risk arrest by entering areas where they're not supposed to go.

Meanwhile, a groups that support the Iraq war are planning a rally of their own. Gathering of Eagles and Free Republic are set to meet on the Mall and line the protest route.

6. Yet these slack-jawed, mouth breathing....
booger eating morons will get equal exposure. The headline for this piece is very misleading. It implies that there will be thousands of pro-war nincompoops to match the thousands of anti-war patriots. NOT EVEN CLOSE!

A handful of FR's knuckle-draggers will show up but that will give the corporate press all the reason they need to report a H-U-G-H pro-Bush presence. :banghead:

9. That gigantic crowd of Bush supporters....
seems to have more than a few young people. I wonder why they're not in uniform, fighting for their pResident and their strong beliefs? :shrug:

I bet it's because they're "fighting the war of words here at home". It sure is tough on the FReep FRont, isn't it? :eyes:
