"Concerned about dissenters who want to hand this nation over to the terrorists by stopping the war?

Worried that Democrats and disaffected Republicans will impeach the President and end torture as we know it?

Patriots for Corporate Rights invites you to join up with other concerned citizens on Friday, February 9th, between 4:00 and 7:00 p.m. We will gather in Minneapolis at Lagoon & Hennepin, Uptown (in front of the library), to celebrate our nation’s willingness to go to war and to torture people in order to preserve freedom here and abroad.

Bring a sign or a friend. Be a part of the movement opposing dissent in our nation!"

I nearly launched into you then... it's only when I saw your posting history I realised you don't share this inane view... next time it might be useful if you put quotation marks to show you're quoting from someone and they're not your own words.

i agree. i mean, they behead us on tv and declare their unwavering hate and lust for killing americans. if it saves innocent american lives, i'm not opposed to torturing some bad guys.

This is insane. What a horribly skewed point of view. I am most definitely going to show up and counter-protest!

How could anyone possibly believe this stuff?

Nobody is pro-torture!!!

Except Alberto Gonzales, President Bush, V.P. Cheney, Rummy, Rice, Negroponte...

This is an anti-war protest in disguise. They're aware of how skewed their point of view appears: They hope that by making a gigantic show of trumpeting patently ridiculous ideas, others will be alerted to exactly how ridiculous the ideas are.
