When instead it appears to be growing that worries many

So instead of doing that they just want to discredit each event as if its nothing
Nearly 60 million people voted for McCain, so 10,000 is a small fraction of that. It's not the numbers that are disturbing. It's the rhetoric. The fact that virtually all the attendees are white. And the hateful signs. Before you mention Bush protestors, I was disturbed by those signs too.

Hey....
That's tomorrow!

I REALLY, REALLY hope the Dems. get what's coming to them next November!
They NEED to vanish like the dinosaurs!

And I thought I was pissed with the last administration.
This one is a collossal disaster in the making.....esp. for the Democrats, but sadly......we are all on this ride together.
And there just ain't enough Dramamine in the world to keep many from feeling SICK!
I believe the "arrogance factor" will play a major role in voters' minds when they cast a ballot next year. IMO, one would have to be blind not to see the condescending attitudes of Pelose, Reid, and Obama toward not only the republicans, but the country in general.

"WE" now what's best for you,....even moreso than what you believe is best for yourself.
