Alot of our troops will be leaving Ft. Lewis for Iraq this Saturday, November 15th, 2003.

The commies are planning to protest on the overpass at Camp Murray, exit 122 off of I5, this saturday from 10am to 3pm. They wish to be the last thing our troops see when they ship out.

Operation Support Our Troops wishes to have enough counter demonstrators that there will not be enough room on the overpass for these commie pukes. If you are going to be in western Washington on Saturday, November 15, please get involved. Don't let these anti-American, Osama-loving SOB's be the last thing that our troops see when they deport.

Wish I lived there or could go. Damned human refuge doing that to our men.

"I'd rather be pissing off communists in Washington State"
 
Good job, Tommy Gun and thanks. I just left Lewis for another duty station and alot of those men are like my brothers. If anyone does go out there for support, be careful on that overpass. Its high speed and heavy traffic. I cant imagine the DOT allowing frigging protesters to stage there. Thanks again.
 
No doubt some of the Anti-war NION dogs will be from that bastion of the Loony Liberal Left - Evergreen College. It's only about 30mi away - those ISM / Terrorist supporting clowns will no doubt go, and get class credit for doing so.
 
You know what the best way to deal with groups like this would be? Pretend to be interested, attend their meetings and keep tabs on what they're doing. They're probably so deperate for members that they won't turn down anyone.

Communists ... *snort*. I have fantasies of bulldozing a hippie commune with CEV.

Tommy Gunn-

If you haven't already, let the guys are KVI and 770 know and ask them to put it out on the air. They can bring a good number of people out.
 
We know for certain that the protestors are 'commies'?

I will also add that targeting troops for protest is at best ineffectual and at worst in incredibly poor taste.
 
I don't know about these particular guys, but many anti war protest groups are affiliated with communist groups, some of them dyed in the wool stalinists even.

Anyone who protests the troops directly is really making a mistake. These soldiers have enough stress as it is. They should hold their protest outside the White House.

But yes, we need some proof that these specific people are actual communists and not just anti-war protesters.

It just plain feels good to complain about "commies" again! LOL

If they're from ANSWER (formed 9/12/01 by the way) they are.

ACT NOW to STOP WAR and END RACISM

Hey if there really was a way to stop war, I'd be fer it; and I sure want no part of racism. Course, they coveniently leave out that their overall goal is installing a socialist government.....


God bless the puppet wavers!:rolleyes:
 
I bet they'd make a big THUD / SPLASH !

At the end of the day, no declaration of war was made by congress, thus this war is UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

Anyone in the military or who has friends in the millitary should be pissed that they are being sent to die for what essentially is just a grudge our president had.

This is why the founders did not want a standing army. This is why they put a requirement that war be declared in the constitution.

And our reliance on a standing army is what undermines our ability to keep and bear arms... people think we don't need personal arms because we have police (something we didn't have at the founding) and a standing army.

Remember what Iraq was supposed to do to avoid this war? Turn over the WMDs. Well, it turns out they destroyed their WMDs in the mid 90s-- which means there is no way they could have avoided this war.

I was a supporter of going to war because I believed our president when he looked us all in the eye and said that Iraq was a threat to the US.

But its clear now that he was lying.

And at the end of the day, no declaration of war was made-- the war is unconstitutional.

If you support your troops, don't endorse throwing their lives away pointlessly.

I'm as anti-socialist as you can get-- my gripe with the republican party is that it is too socialist for me. I am far from a commie. The iraq war, in my opinion, serves the cause of socialism.

Repeat it until your keyboard turns blue, doesn't make your point True, or even valid. Not the first time we've fired live ammo outside CONUS, with nothing but an 'ok' from Congress. Not even the 20th.

And I'd further say that if you believe the Republican Party is 'Socialist' (compared to the Dem, etc), then you sir don't know what the hell Socialism IS.
 
I think Don Galt has a very valid point.

In my copy of the Federal Constitution it states that only Congress has the authority to declare war. So two questions should be asked:

1. Are we at war?
2. If so, did Congress declare war?

Seems pretty black and white to me.

But while I question the validity and constitutionality of this war, I would never protest the troops themselves. I hold our troops in high honor.
 
IIRC, Congress passed an authorization for the use of force?
Does it say somewhere in the Constitution they have to say verbatim "We Declare War"?

That's a joke right- I mean you don't really believe it?

Hopefully the troops realize what an infintesimal minority these "brave" folks are, and that regardless of the political necessities/motivations of the war- the people in the military DO NOT DESERVE to be the targets of the left's anti- Bush agenda.:fire:

What are you kidding?

So let me see if I understand this, Hussein consistently acted like he still had WMD, he never provided proof of destroying his WMD even though he knew that for 12 years that was all anyone was asking for to allow him to continue to grind Iraqis under his boot heel indefinetely, all the world's credible intelligence agencies thought he had them...but somehow Bush personally knew he didn't and decided to lie to the world in order to take the United States to war for his own personal grudge. Thanks for clearing that up for me.
And at the end of the day, no declaration of war was made-- the war is unconstitutional.

If that is true, which it would only be due to Congress not dotting their 'i's, also known as a technicality, what is your point? The Congress authorized the President to take the country to war. Did you miss that?

But, I'm all for pointless death and dimemberment. Throw the troops into the meat ginder I say! More pointless death! More grieving familes! Yay! :barf:

If I'm not mistaken, the last "DECLARED" war was WW II.

Everything has been a bed of roses, until Desert Storm II, no?

:rolleyes:
 
I'm afraid that the complaint that Congress did not declare war is simply semantic masturbation in this case. H. J. RES. 114 was a declaration of war on Iraq, and simply because it did not say "we declare war on Iraq in accordance with Article 1, Section 8 of the Constitution" does not make it any less of a declaration of war in accordance with Article 1, Section 8 of the Constitution. The Constitution gives Congress the power to declare war; it says nothing about how a declaration of war must be worded.

That doesn't make Congress right or wrong for declaring war, it just means that they did, in fact, declare it.

"JOINT RESOLUTION To authorize the use of United States Armed Forces against Iraq" is pretty hard to mis-interperet. ;)

On a related note, I thought that even the peace movements got smart enough to know that hollering at underpaid teenagers getting set off to, or just coming back from, third word hell holes is no way to protest a government policy you don't like. My suggestion if you are an anti-war protester: stop smoking dope long enough to figure out who deserves to get protested at. If the answer in your mind is to yell at and spit on underpaid teenagers about to risk their lives in some colossal disease vector 5,000+ miles away, please kill yourself. If the answer is politicians who have actual power to send troops to and fro, by all means go for it.

Amen brother!

Sadly, Mr. Smith, I think you give the so called "peace movement" far to much credit for intelligence and patriotism. Most of them would much rather whine and complain, while under the protection and freedom of the very institution they protest.

Just my 2-cents.
