from Dr. King's Letter from Birmingham Jail:
------
"Of course, there is nothing new about this kind of civil disobedience. It was evidenced sublimely in the refusal of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego to obey the laws of Nebuchadnezzar, on the ground that a higher moral law was at stake. It was practiced superbly by the early Christians, who were willing to face hungry lions and the excruciating pain of chopping blocks rather than submit to certain unjust laws of the Roman Empire. To a degree, academic freedom is a reality today because Socrates practiced civil disobedience. In our own nation, the Boston Tea Party represented a massive act of civil disobedience.

We should never forget that everything Adolf Hitler did in Germany was "legal" and everything the Hungarian freedom fighters did in Hungary was "illegal." It was "illegal" to aid and comfort a Jew in Hitler's Germany. Even so, I am sure that, had I lived in Germany at the time, I would have aided and comforted my Jewish brothers. If today I lived in a Communist country where certain principles dear to the Christian faith are suppressed, I would openly advocate disobeying that country's antireligious laws."

Good luck today!

Best wishes to all who are out today. I only wish i, and a few thousand others, could be there to back you up. Your courage is not overlooked, and though it will be criticised by many, is our best hope. Stay strong, never give up!

Too bad Saint Cindy wasn't arrested for treason.

All this is going to do is give her & her moonbat crew yet another 15 minutes.

How come no ever asks Saint Cindy why she's such a racial bigot?? What does her nibs think will happen to the innocent Iraqi's if our troops just up and leave. Oh, wait a minute - the Iraqi's aren't white california moonbats, so why would Siant Cindy and her friends care what happens to them.

Sort of like the south vietnamese and the cambodians after we cut tail and ranin Vietnom. All the anti-war jerks really didn't give a poot about them either

Protesting the spread of mideast democracies and dishonoring her son who firmly believed in the cause because he was there - that was why he re-enlisted. This is truly foolish of anyone who truly has peace as goal!

er, what was the justification for this war again, guys? weapons of mass...er, no, democratic...hmm wait: now it's against "racial bigotry"?!!?

Fuck you commies, when Bush gets done with you Gitmo will be overflowing with lefty scum.

Justification.

Listen jughead, you probably failed history but in 1993 Sadam Hussein, ya the guy who used to be Torturer in Chief in Iraq, tried to assassinate George Herbert Walker Bush when he was visiting Kuwait.

Attempted assassination of a president is justification for nuking Bagdad imho.

Stop the lies please.

Democracies do not attack other democracies!

All Muslim people are not terrorists, but nearly all terrorists are Muslims - profiling is a common sense necessity! If you don't agree, please point me toward the newspaper articles about 60 year old Catholic or Baptist women blowing themselves up in a group of innocent people!!! I'll point you to thousands of articles on young Islamic men doing exactly that!

CINDY SHEEHAN YOU SEDITIOUS BITCH. SHUT YOUR STUPID TRAP. YOUR STUPIDITY IS ONLY GOING TO MAKE OTHER SOLDIERS LIKE YOUR SON GET KILLED. YOU ARE CRAZY AS HELL, BITCH.

Morons...

Cindy Sheehan and her group of wackos are nothing but a bunch of morans!

Maybe morAns should be zapped with laZers?
Next time, try "moron."

non-violence means nothing to the establishment!

Dont you guys have jobs?

I find it ironic that Cindy & her cronies call Bush "Hitler" & a communist but at their rallys they are surrounded by Young Communist parties who are handing out phamplets and calling Bush the bad guy. Your planned rally was laughable, what a bunch of losers.

I think all you a--h---'s need to go live in a 3rd world country or any country that is not democratic & see how you fare with your stupid ideas of how the world should be. The first time you opened your mouth or held your signs in the air you would be creamated.

No matter what you say or do will not change the facts that we did not start this war but we are committed to helping others. To pull out now would give the insurgents the right to come on our land and slaughter us because we would have no back bone to protect ourselves.

You may not be thankful to our military for protecting your rights to act like ungrateful children but I am thankful to them that I have the rights & luxuries that I have being an American.

And as someone who has lost 2 sons I can guarantee Cindy is not someone who is grieving over the loss of Casey. Any mother who loved her son would not under any circumstances use his name in vain for her own political or so called celeberity gain.

Looking at all of the pictures of Cindy hanging onto Jesse Jackson like a love sick puppy and her stupid grin while the police were taking her into custody are pitiful. Cindy makes me want to puke!

Cindy's goofy grin while attending the event shows you that she is more into the celebrity than her son's memory.

Keep the faith, you'll be back out in about 5 or 6 weeks. Oh, yeah, try not to use the facilities, the last guy in there was definitely HIV positive. And that smell that sort of smells like foot fungus, well, you'll get used to it.

My Lord, this Cindy woman and her comrades are a true disgrace to all who are serving and have served this nation...It is so obvious that they have no understanding of the world in which they live...your hatred for your country is truly sad...the ideas that you and your ilk flap their gums about is without out a doubt anti-american propaganda...your attempts at making life easier for our enemies by way of your public distain for this great nation is criminal at the very least...one could go on and on arguing against your demented point of view but after nearly 40 years of watching most of this insanity take place or at least begin here in kalifornia I believe I understand who you people think you are...YOU ARE an ELITIST...you see the world in terms of humanistic understanding only laying hold of the truth as somthing that makes you feel more morally superior to even GOD himself...At every turn in our nations recent history you and your comrades have attempted to discredit America even going so far as to compare America to nazi germany!!...America dose not work for you because America was designed for a people who first acknowledge the authority of a creator in the design of life and respect the liberty of all peoples...yes Cindy, even the Iraqi people have a right to liberty and for that reason alone America has, after much opposition from the left managed to do what is right and not act like the rest of the nations and look away...you should be proud that your nation has the ability and the will to act...but then again maybe you your not American.

Well I do believe in fighting terrorism,
but being lied to by a Punk President
who couldn't even serve Vietnam-got an early
out for himself.

He basically lied to the Amercian poeple,
and since he's such a chickenshit President
He's afraid to talk to her-if you do think
she's a maroon...then fine but Punk Bush's
afraid to talk to a maroonic women...

Where's that cocky President that we seen flying
off that Aircraft carrier proclaiming
Mission Accomplished-he sure could flown
over Vietnam for his country.

He sure did show his true colors not wanting
to talk to her a yellow bellied pissed in his
pance punk.

Well all you Bush lovers are Sheep-Baaahhh!!!!
No Al-Qedia links,no WMD's-only 20.0000
troops in Afganistian and he's reducing them...
He's really going to find Bin-Linden now...
What a joke....
