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!
The following rally is a tactic. The idea is to get people to wake up and see the ridiculousness of supporting war and torture, which is what they are inadvertently doing by being complacent. It becomes harder to put the fact that our nation is actually torturing people out of your mind when there are people standing up in defense of the right to do it. And if the population isn’t outraged when they see us, media reports on the lack of that outrage can be an effective way of getting our message across as well.
We’re betting that signs like “Dissent is unpatriotic,” “3,000 Soldiers is worth it” and “War is good for business” will show the true colors of Bush and his supporters. This kind of dissent is in the tradition of groups like The Yes Men (http://www.theyesmen.org/). This could motivate progressive thinkers who might otherwise have stayed at home to take action, make people sitting on the fence think about the issue and realize how ridiculous pro-Bush people are being, and give us more media attention, as the media is fairly accustomed to anti-war protests.
Reactions to news of our rally?
“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.”

I LUV the name calling… it’s all they have. Why does name calling scare the right so much?
This just in from the PCR, “Good news, some liberal moonbat lefty loonies are criticizing our protest on the IFP site! We must be doing something right.”
I think this page was pretty sick, I can’t imagine anyone wanting war and torture, please seek help and or medication….
“Patriots with a single, unwavering point of view founded this nation”
Actually, from what I understand, only 1/3 of the nation supported the revolution, 1/3 were neutral, and 1/3 supported the british. I think in the long run, a real focused effort to rebuild Iraq and other nations would be much more effective than a military campaign. This government can’t even seem keep this nation’s communities intact in times of crisis.
Torturing people only makes more terrorists, anyways. But this whole united states influence in the mid east goes pretty far back now. It’s the only thing some people know there, unfortuately, until a lot of things change.
