My favorite part was when I saw a CNN reporter write off the protestors, claiming they were just here to start up trouble and their message was just foolish.
I'm against most forms of protesting, but I love, love, love the double standard we are seeing.
There is no double standard. Anti-war protesters made up millions of people nation-wide before and after the war in Iraq started, and they were actually protesting something tangible.
These protesters are protesting, among other things, tax increases that don't exist and probably wouldn't affect them anyway, bailouts that originated under the previous administration, authoritarianism the previous administration specialized in, among other equally inane things like "Socialism" or Obama's "citizenship."
These protests were manufactured and pimped out like hell by FoxNews and a variety of Republican leaders and talking heads and are far more dangerous. I'm much more concerned about a group of gun obsessed racist faux revolutionaries than a group of pacifists or angry bloggers.
