#1 I think a big clash is coming. ANSWER and the other moonbats have been planning for months to pull out all the stops in an attempt to disrupt the convention and impress the delegates. It worked in Chicago in 1968, and that victory has iconic status in the folklore of the loony left.

#2 most of them protesting against the war

In Sudan, I presume.

#3 "Peace" demonstrators attack a man carrying an anti-abortion sign? Talk about your baby killers.

#4 When the Giant Puppets show up, I'll know they mean business.

#5 If some of the hard-core ringleaders of the so-called 'anti-war' (anti-American) movement are discovered to be directly linked to various jihad terrorist groups, such as Hamas Hizballah or al-Qaida, and their arrests are made very public, such devastating news to the radical Left would result a the finger being pointed at the Dems.

Adverse breaking news like this especially in the midst of Kerry's 'former' national security 'advisor', Sandy Berger is under a legal microscope for stealing government documents would ruin the Dems chances for regaining the White House.

Maybe somebody out there is already investigating the all possibilities in this presidential election year. Hint, hint :)

#6 ANSWER v. NO ANSWER -- I report, they beat on each other, you decide.

#8 AC - The film footage I saw on Fox indicates you're spot-on. It's coming. They were emoting on high and it was surprising no one did throw a punch - they certainly looked to be past the post. So is this red on pink, or pink on red?

#9 Why doesn't the Guardian just call it what it is, a hey-look-we're-a-bunch-of-assholes demonstration?

#10 This has just gone dementio: About an hour ago, Drudge put up a blurb claiming that 4 unidentified parachutists had landed on the roof of the Tip O'Neil federal building in Boston and that SWAT teams had surrounded the place. The story was pulled 20 minutes later and there hasn't been a word since.
A night jump into a crowded city is just not in the cards for an exercise. A hoax by commu-tard disruptors is probable, but even that would be newsworthy by now. The other possibility is the media cooperating in a brief blackout surrounding a critical special op, I won't speculate any further.

#11 The media cooperating with special ops?

I stopped believing that after the Chicago Tribune squealed on the "spring offensive" that became one giant FUBAR.

#12 "Common - a 50-acre park that is the starting point for the Freedom Trail and was once used for public hangings." Oh, yeah. That's a leftist British paper alright. Can't have the crazed capitalist colonists thinking they have any claim on progressivism or liberty, can we?

#13 The real violence won't get started until the Republican convention. What we'll see this week is the figleaf stuff -- just enough to plausibly claim the loons don't support or are supported by the Democrats.

#14 The real violence won't get started until the Republican convention.

I dunno, the NYPD might not be inclined to take that kind of crap, especially if these "protesters" ultimately go off the deep end in Boston.

#15 You're on to something there for sure Robert, NYC is going to be a war zone for the Republican convention. You'll see more moonbats on parade than you can stomach, all televised under a solemn tone of "this is real America with real grievances in the streets against the evil GWB".
It'll be non-stop riot coverage for a week.

#16 BOSTON -- State police are still investigating reports that parachutists landed near the FleetCenter Sunday night, but there is little information about what may have been only a security drill. The FleetCenter is the site of the Democratic National Convention, which begins Monday night.
NewsCenter 5's Gail Huff reported that military police called in reports just after midnight that two parachutists had landed in the yard of the Charles River Park condominium complex. Additional reports indicated there were also parachutists on the top of the Tip O'Neill Federal Building located next door to the FleetCenter. Before police helicopters arrived, officers on the ground covered the area, sending officers to the roofs of the buildings. SWAT teams went to the top of the federal building. All available state and local officers responded, some with K9 units. Nothing was found and state police said no one was arrested.

Sounds like the hookers from Fort Bragg have arrived.

#17 What would ANSWER have done if Bush declared a "Disagreement About Terrorism" Instead of the WOT?

#21 The Guardian is printed on paper made from trees. Trees were once used for public hangings.

#22 Trees were also used to burn heretics.
