anybody can make & wear teeshirts.........and it's easy to get these "uniforms" from any army store.

folks, gorbash is well known to post baloney information & pictures.............and this is probably more of the same..........

please, share with us gorbash the details of this so-called "march" or demonstration........and who these people are that CLAIM to be vets of the iraq war.....

this is more than likely baloney from moveon.org...........

You can't possibly be saying that NO vet is against the war - this would simply not be true. I know a few vets against the war in my own circle of friends and family, so I am sure there are more out there. You might WISH there weren't......but you would be deceiving yourself.

I'm going to start posting the spread on these blogs before it happens. Yesterday I predicted that some conservative ass hole would try to say "these photos are fake".

You really are a despicable human being. You honestly think ALL vets agree with the garbage Right Wing Media feeds us? Do you think someone who has been there and watched their friends get killed is going to think "the urge is working"?

I should have put money on this one!! Thanks for being that "republican stooge" posting your conspiracy theory.

My grandfather was in Korea during the Korean war, and thinks that the Iraq adventure was a huge mistake.

I met several W.W. II veterans who believe the war was a bad idea, and wasn't necessary.

I have met quite a few Vietnam veterans who are outraged that someone like Bush would lead this country into a similar (though less costly in U.S. lives) adventure like Vietnam.

My father-in-law is a WW11 Vet and is against the war in Iraq. My husband and brother-in-law were in the Service during the Vietnam war and are against the war in Iraq. THAT IS A FACT. They don't even know what moveon.org is, and they all still have their old uniforms.

I'm sure there are alot of vets that are against war, they lived it.
Does anyone think the American civil war was necessary, do you think WWI, WWII, were necessary, any war for that matter, are they necessary???
I also know a few people in all these wars, some have passed away and some are still alive, I us to work part time on the USS COD on the lake front, so I heard alot of stories, some funny some sad, But I never heard them say they were against any of the wars but I also never heard them say the were for the war.
All I know is they were proud to serve in our Military, they were proud and stood tall when they talked about America, most served in WWII, some in the Korean and Vietnam war.
there is one that always stood out he never talked about his service in the army, I knew he served but he never talked about it, He is my Father, I learned later in life why he never talked about, He was a POW in the Korean war, I couldn't even think of walking a mile in his shoes, I can only tell you what he thinks of this war, He doesn't agree with it but he still stands behind the American flag.

hmmmm mfso.org is just another front for:

dailykos, moveon.org, huffington, and of COURSE George Soros!!!!

ya know liberals, some day George Soros is going to EXPECT something in return for all his $$$$$$......be forwarned, he WILL come out of the wooodwork...........and he will be every bit as ruthless with you people that he is right now with WRCCR & Bush........

Ya know conservatives, I've never heard of any of those websites and only know of moveon.org because it is mentioned in these blogs. I've also never heard of George Soros until these blogs. So, you see, my liberal thoughts are MY OWN and not influenced by anyone or anything....

You put up the challenge and I took it.

Up first, The Washington Post Read down the page, Vietnam veterans along with Iraq veterans against the war attended.

Up next, Iraq Veterans Against the War Still think these people are "phony"?

Boston.com-Returning Vets Use Art as Protest Again, a mention of Iraq Veterans Against the war.

Iraq Vet Returns War Medals in Protest

Veterans share their stories, urge an end to the war in Iraq

girlscout, sheesh you KNOW i'm not including you in this...........but you're the one who told me to stop pandering to you my friend. LOL

PB, the challenge was to show ALL of us where he got THESE pics, who is behind them & who THESE people are...........you blew it again. LOL

In case you didn't notice, two of the pics show web addresses where you can go and find out about the groups that are in the protests.

And the "challenge" is for us to get out of Iraq and to prevent a similar mess in Iran, not for a sane and rational person to try to convince a Conservative Bush Supporter to believe anything that goes against their beliefs.

I have already realized that no amount of evidence, documents, or proofs will ever convicnce someone like yourself that Evolution is real (when it is) Global Warming is real (when it is) or that George W. Bush is one of the least popular president's in recent U.S. History or that the Iraq invasion and occupation has killed or injured and uprooted nearly 1 million people in Iraq.

You are simply immune to all logic, math, or factual evidence. Your mind is closed and made up about what you choose to believe, even when you are so blatantly and stubbornly wrong about what you choose to believe in spite of the facts.

In some Republican circles this type of stubborness might be some kind of retarded badge of honour or some proof of conservative credentials. But in the rest of the world, being a stubborn person who doesn't admite they are wrong when it is obvious that they are is actually considered a bad character trait!

To be fair, these types of protests do happen.

The fainess comes when you acknowledge that there are also "Pro support the Troops" rallies going on all the time. You just don’t read about them on MOVEON.ORD or the Huffington Post.

So what is your proposal? Count up the protesters on both sides and the greater number goes National Policy? You DO know that many of those who support the troops do not have time to go to the streets to protest. They have jobs, and work to keep America growing, and to provide for their families.

I noticed that you filtered out all the signs with misspellings. The one sign the man is holding up that reads “Bring my son home” but the rest of the sign is cut off. Was that to prevent us from seeing how Liberals can’t spell?

i went there gorbash and i also drilled through the information to find out who is funding them & who is behind it.

none other that George Soros..........and remember, someday he is going to want a return on his investment & he will be looking to collect from you guys. no way is this very WEALTHY man going to just "give" all this money to causes without expecting something in return. he didn't get this wealthy by being stupid with his investments. he WILL have his "hand out" on you people someday.

My reply to you above, princess, was just in response to your comment of 9:57am. Just saying that not all of us liberals follow the websites or people that you mentioned.
And who cares who's funding the Veterans against the Iraq War? Tell us who's funding all the right-wing activities? Geez - of course liberal Democrats will fund their causes, just as conservative Republicans will fund their causes, too!
And I STILL don't know who George Soros is! LOL!

I think George Soros sounds like a responsible adult who opposes the occupation of Iraq just like over 70% of the American people now do!

If we had listened to people like him before the invasion, we wouldn't be in the mess we are in now!

Somehow saying that Al Gore is teaching people about the danger of Global Warming is some kind of retarded "proof" that it isn't serious!

Somehow in the minds of Conservatives, the fact that someone like Ariana Huffington or George Soros supports and end to the failed and immoral policy in Iraq is some kind of moronic "proof" that staying in Iraq is a great idea!

This is the same kind of logic that causes Conservatives to disbelieve the science behind Evolution, and Stem Cell Research, because someone from somewhere that happens not to be Conservatives like themselves somehow amounts to "proof" of some kind of worldwide conspiracy!

It must be terrifying to be a conservative who thinks that the entire world is conspiring against them! Or maybe its just that their beliefs are not in sync with reality!

girlyscout, i know that not ALL liberals read this crap.............as a matter of fact, i suspect that most don't. it's just unpatriotic crap....

maybe you should find out who george soros really is...........he's been undermining everything and everyone that doesn't agree with his warped crap for years now.

and he will come to collect someday.......he's not stupid. he will someday make it clear that he has all the crazy left loon liberals (not you) by the "short ones" and they WILL have to pay the piper.

"He's been undermining everything and everyone"-Dprin

That sounds like a deranged paranoid scizophrenic's view of some all powerfull evil force who is out to control the universe! (I should know, my uncle has paranoid schizophrenia)

George Soros is fighting for what he believes in, liberal policies that work (as opposed to the failed ideology of conservatism and George W. Bush)

Also, American citizens who oppose this war 70+% are not unpatriotic, and neither are those that served their country in Iraq and who think it is immoral or a strategic mistake.

A proud Liberal, and a proud Atheist, I don't make excuses for who and what I am, and i will fight back against the Pat Robertsons, Glen Becks, James Dobsons of the world, but I won't lay off the the Ayatollahs or Mullahs either. I will push for radical change, against Theocracy and for Secularism and Atheism, against Free Market Capitalism and for Socialism, against Dogma and for Free thought. I will fight against the Right Wing and against Conservatism.
