The Gathering of Eagles<\/a>, whose exploits I’ve photo’d and written<\/a> about several times, are planning\u00c2\u00a0more counter-demonstrations in DC in September<\/a>. The details aren’t ironed out yet according to their website, but apparently they plan to demonstrate against Congress on September 10th and counter-demonstrate against the ANSWER Coalition<\/a> of kooks on the 15th.<\/p>\n

You might notice that one of the officers of GOE posted on my latest Sheehan story<\/a> below and announced the counter-demonstration\u00c2\u00a0planned September. I’ve seen the ANSWER posters around town and wondered if the GOE was going to be there, too. Happily, they will.<\/p>\n

In my opinion, these counter-demonstrations are having a real\u00c2\u00a0effect on these protesters. If Cindy Sheehan can’t find the intestinal fortitude to drag her body from a car and face the consequences for her traitorous yammering, we’re winning.<\/p>\n

These kooks have continued unanswered for too long, because they appeared to be harmless. But, because no one had the guts to face them (until this year – aside from Free Republic, I mean), we’ve tacitly approved of the rise of idiot punks like the basement-dwelling Black Bloc<\/a> members.<\/p>\n

I remember in the early seventies when construction workers in New York City climbed down off of the high steel to confront anti-war protesters of the time. That pretty much ended protests of the Viet Nam era. Maybe we can do it again.<\/p>\n

We owe it to the troops in the Middle East.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
