Hey grakledown:
No personal attacks, please. Perhaps you would like to rephrase your comments. Spell checker or not, your language is out of line, sir. It will not be tolerated. Most of the liberals I know and respect would never speak or post that kind of comment. So, if you want your opinions to be known and respected, might I suggest you try a much different tone
And Randall:
To disagree, the message is not "fear me", sir, it is "hear me!" There were somewhere between 1 and 2 million Americans who showed up in Washington, DC for the peaceful protest. They transported themselves there. The arranged lodging. They carried a message for millions more who would have liked to attend but couldn't. You should tone down your rhetoric and address the issues, not bash liberals in general. Squeaky or squeeky, name calling doesn't forward anyone's cause or ideals.
And geiger:
I assure you that every single one of them had a very clear idea of why they were there. The assertion that they were some sort of corporate dupes is absurd, by the way. A clear illustration of how out of touch at least some Canadians are with the American political system and our current state of affairs.
Americans:
I care not whether you are liberal or conservative, Republican or Democrat. What I do care about, passionately, is the preservation of our personal freedoms and a political system where both liberal and conservatives can co-exist and assert their individual beliefs and ideas without fear of government reprisal. Again, what is being protested is massive government, massive government spending, crippling deficits, confiscatory taxation, the subversion of the principles enumerated in the America's Constitution, and the growing intrusion of an all-powerful godless state over the individual freedoms and personal responsibilities that God-fearing Americans love and hold dear. It is the American people, not a powerful central government, that has and will continue to make the United States of America great. And if our government officials don't understand or believe that, then it is time for them to go.
Hear us! And may God bless America.
