Must be doing something right to piss them off so much.
This direct action was a flop. It might have been popular with Anarchists, but it's a PR disaster for the entire anti-war movement. Who is benefiting the most from this action? Malkin, Hannity, O'Reilly et al who will spin the news accordingly. Way to allienate the mainstream, Ryane, Donte, Ephraim, etc.
Yep. No doubt about it. The Chicago Tribune -which gave us the news that there were WMDs in Iraq, and assured us that the Bush's Adminstration's "mission" in Iraq was just days away from being 'accomplished' - is pissed off.
As are the right-wing pundits outraged at the thought that there might be others who might be increasingly angered by the complacency major church leaders are taking toward the carnage in Iraq. Real fire and brimstone stuff. You can hear the sizzle.
And what's worse, there actually might be young white people who agree with Rev. Wright's call for social justice and accounability from those in power -- and are willing to raise that message from the pews if necessary inside their own places of worship.
LMAO at the fool who wants all protests to not be offensive to the likes of OReilly, Malkin, and Limbaugh. I got news for you -- they're the enemy, not the mainstream.
Your comment, "Must be doing something right to piss them off so much," is extremely intelligent. That's why when I walk down the street bumping into people and throwing cigarette butts at their foreheads, I feel justified, because I must be doing something right if I'm pissing them off so much.
