How is this helping Bush? :p

Or do you mean by exercising your right to free speech?

Dear Marines,

As you probably already know, exercising your right to free speech is guaranteed by the US Constitution. Ellis D. Fleischbach suggested I tell you this, although I am not sure why.

Sincerely,
Dave Stoller
proud American and honorary Italian, but not a hippie
I'll bet the Washington Monument show will be long over by the time MTB hits the stage.

I am a Marine and I'll be happy when all my brothers and sisters are out of that bloody sandbox. Thanks to TC for putting this on!
I grew up in a military family, and lived thru having a father and a brother in Vietnam. This is deja vu, except without the trumpted up "commie" threat…over 2,000 dead and almost 14,000 wounded - I don't believe you are unpatriotic to want us OUT OF IRAQ IMMEDIATELY…Let the oil companies employees stay; they can volunteer and make beaucoup "hardship" bucks; that's what it's all about anyway.

Of course, the Patriot Act renewal will make it an act of treason to question anything the Bush family does…so showing up at this protest may be a career limiting move. Remember all those video cameras around DC in the name of "terrorist threat"? Do you think your mug might be on one of them soon? Who cares. I'll be there…

I thought our stated purpose in going in to countries like Iraq was to allow these places to enjoy freedom as we do. Freedom. Freedom to disagree with your government, freedom to protest in a non-violent but public manner, freedom to think any damn thing you want.

Another war loss to add to our recent dismal record. Yeah, I'm sure that's the 'feelgood victory' the troops have been battling for.

Make sure you video the concert so you can post it on the Al Qaeda website. It'll be a real morale booster for Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. I hear he's been down in the dumps recently. This news is sure to cheer him up. Way to go Ted Leo.
Probably not a coincidence that that's the same day as the peace march around the White House

Ah yes…good old Vietnam, somewhere else the doodles had no business shoving their noses in. No offense to the 'nam vets', but YOU LOST! GET OVER IT ALREADY
let me get this straight by protesting with a concert it's a victory for the terrorists…

but don't the terrorists win when events like this don't happen out of fear they might strike?

hope your bunker is nice and comfy….

Al Qaeda <> Iraq
:roll:
What should the design of the monument for Iraq/Afghanistan war veterans? You know it'll be coming soon to the mall. Maybe it should be a giant statue something along the lines of this:

There could be a big plaque at the bottom, "THANKS FOR NOTHING", and instead of an eternal flame the theme from the Benny Hill show would loop endlessly.
