They're Back!
AP: Protesters Gather Again Near Bush's Ranch---
CRAWFORD, Texas - More than a dozen war protesters returned to a roadside near President Bush's ranch before dawn Wednesday, defying two new local bans on roadside camping and parking.No one is restricting free speech rights. These Leftists can say anything they want to. They just can't stop moving along the road.
About an hour after the group pitched tents and huddled in sleeping bags and blankets, a McLennan County sheriff's deputy arrived and warned the group to leave or face arrest.
Protester and former U.S. diplomat Ann Wright told the deputy that most of the group would stay because they believed the bans restrict their free-speech rights. The deputy said the group would have two more warnings before he started making arrests.
Anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan wasn't among the protesters Wednesday because of a family emergency in California, but she planned to arrive at the camp later in the week. The protest was set to coincide with Bush's Thanksgiving ranch visit.
"We are proud to be here," Dede Miller, Sheehan's sister, said Wednesday as she huddled in a blanket at the campsite. "This is just so important. What we did in August really moved us forward, and this is just a continuation of it."
I really wouldn't classify smearing honorable people and dishonoring their Noble Deeds as moving or important. Rather, doing so is disgusting and self-important and appalling.
Why not be thankful for the freedom men fighting in wars have preserved for them? Go home.
