Our president is a coward for canceling his speech in front of the house of commons.

Population of England, Britain or the UK?

I'd say that is a fair turnout considering it was mid-week. If it had been on a saturday or sunday the numbers would be far higher I should think.

Why? These hippie's don't have jobs. Every day is a weekend for them. J/K...well, mostly kidding.

Ever watch the news footage of these protests? These people really do believe this is the 60's! I saw one guy playing bomgo's!

And have you ever noticed, most of these protesters seem to be about 18-25 years old?

bush is terrible but he is miles ahead of any candidater that the democrats will field so far as personal freedoms that I am interested in.   I don't want democrat socialism and women running my life.  

if it were between bush and a libertarian I would vote libertarian but any vote that helps the dems is a vote for socialism.

That makes alot of sense, especially in the 1960's.

Why do you suppose they are still that age today?

Same goes for PETA and the Greenpeace folks. Always seem to be unshaved 23 year olds.

The point Muck is that they have alot more at stake during times of war than someone who is older. At 40 i do not worry about getting drafted or being sent off to war.

So your saying Anti-war protesters could care less about the war as long as it does not affect them.

Why don't they just hold signs that read "Don't draft me"  instead of "Baby Killer"?
