Supporters counter protesters in colorful display near library
http://venturacountystar.com/news/2007/may/04/supporters-counter-protesters-in-colorful-near/
The dolphin waving a black flip-flop staked out one side of Madera Road. The ostrich holding a red poster staked out the other.
In between the porpoise's "Mitt Romney is a flip flopper" message and the ostrich's urging of presidential candidates to pull their heads out of the sand and address Social Security were an array of demonstrators with a single mission: to get their messages to the 10 Republican presidential candidates at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum in Simi Valley for the country's first GOP debate this year.
Young, earnest, well-heeled people in dark suits and pearls waving placards for former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani stood next to a contingent of folks with a huge banner that proclaimed "Rudy without 9/11 you are nothing" and signs demanding the truth about the attacks on New York and the Pentagon.
There was a group of older adults with banners urging Texas Rep. Ron Paul for president. A crowd of supporters for Sen. Sam Brownback of Kansas arrived late with blue and white placards and T-shirts and took up a position across the street.
Then there was Tony Pierce. A solitary figure, separate from the throng, Pierce, a Simi Valley resident, waved his Obama in '08 sign at passing cars a reference to Illinois Sen. Barack Obama, a Democratic presidential hopeful.
"What I'd like to hear the Republicans talk about is how to unite the country," Pierce said. "I'd like to hear that from Republicans and Democrats."
Giuliani's supporters, who included a number of college students, outnumbered the other demonstrators. "He's the most fiscally disciplined candidate," Sean Fago, 28, of Brea, said of Giuliani.
George Lopez, 20, of Thousand Oaks, isn't a big Giuliani fan. He was with those demanding the truth about the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. "I just wish people would wake up and ask questions," he said.
Part of the time two airplanes circled overheard. One carried a banner that read "Republicans Mission Accomplished?" The banner on the second plane read "McCain Mission Accomplished?"
As the debate grew near, the crowd began to thin, the sidewalks cleared out and on the north side of Madera Road, only the dolphin was left.

"Rudy without 9/11 you are
"Rudy without 9/11 you are nothing" sounds like something the Incompetence theorists might say...
How about "Rudy, how'd you know the towers would fall?"
point taken

true enough, but i think
true enough, but i think coupled with the sign that beautiful women on the right
is holding its good enough:-)
Rudy Supporters
the rudy people agreed with my sign...they know it...one dude that showed up to support Rudy was way more intrested in what we had to say...i talked to a few of them and told them Rudy knew the towers were coming down and that we wanna know who told him...they were receptive and said they would do their own research on it...once you open a mind on 9/11 it doesn't close!
Good to see people getting active.
It's about time. My sons came home from a trip to Europe last night. The first thing one of them said to me was "Dad, they hate us (Americans) in Europe". Doesn't that make you feel proud to be an American? I don't know about the rest of you but I am so pissed-off I could spit fire. Bush and the neocons and their NWO backers have turned this once great country into a war machine. We are hated world wide. We have become the Nazi Germany of the 21st century and all because of 9/11 and our reaction to it. To you NWO thugs who monitor this wed site, your day is coming and it won't be pretty. That's a promise...............By the way, the San Francisco airport reminded me of a police state.
Bush Empire
The Bush's profited from funding the Nazi War machine
You bet your sweet ass they did.
Prescott Bush was a traitor and should have been hung with the rest of his crime family. This Bush family makes the mafia look like boy scouts. Have I told you lately how much I hate these people?

ok, maddog!
Let's put all that energy to good use.
What do you feel like doing? What do you have time to do? Are your sons up for some activism?
We're winning this and with a little more work, creativity and organization, we can get this country turned around faster than most people think.
I hope that you and yours are well.
The truth shall set us free. Love is the only way forward.
I can't post what I feel like doing but
I spend every waking moment trying to get the word out. So far I have had quite a bit of success. I am surprised how receptive most people are to truth. My sons have also been a big help. I just wish every American who loves his country like I do would get off their asses and get active. The future of this country and the planet depends on it.
just spent a few hours today
It was "May Fair" day in Harvard Square, a beautiful sunny day with thousands of poeple out and about. A steady stream of people would stop to read all about 9/11, take flyers, and for the most part NOT insult me or call me crazy. One guy did bring up the freeway collapse--only to walk away hurling invective without waiting to hear what I had to say about it. Another much more civil guy, Canadian, was very polite and listened to my arguments. He said he was a civil engineer and that from what he had heard he supposed the official story was plausible, but then he referred to pancaking, and couldn't cite many sources. Since he seemed sincere in his beliefs and a prime candidate for being enlightened I told him to take my copy of Debunking 9/11 Debunking, which he seemed pretty excited about (free book, eh what?) Most people just spent a few minutes reading my various placards, much of which will no doubt be on their minds the next day they come across... you?
Anyway, all in a day's truthing. We're winning. Feel good, and don't stop. I never will.

"My sons came home from a trip to Europe last night. The first thing one of them said to me was "Dad, they hate us (Americans) in Europe"."
Last time I visited the good ole US of A the opinion wasn't much different. By that I mean that whenever I would mentioned Bush/Cheney I would get looks that could kill. The anger is palpable. So, the feeling is pretty much universal. If it's any comfort, I don't think most of us hate Americans, just the government. Most of us realize the current leadership don't represent the majority of Americans, who happen to be fine people. You can still be proud to be Americans. Especially you who are have the courage to challenge your government' integrity and honesty. It's more than the Germans did in 1933 or Russians did around 1917. That is what makes America great. Keep your chin up. You are not all painted with the same brush.
Phaedrus.
arent the Europeans......
scapegoating Americans just a little? After all they did allow the EU to happen and their govs. submit to the will of the Neo-Cons. In the UK its worse than "V for Vendetta" I thought euros love to riot when things get unjust, oh thats only when there wellfare is in jeopardy not there civil liberties. Socialists equate govt. programs with liberty and that breeds victim menality on massive scale. How aggressivly have they persued 7/7 and the Madrid bombings?
good points brother J
If Europeans are so with it and aware of the 9/11 coverup then why don't we see see constant stories in their press? Why don't we see them elect truth-friendly politicians? Et cetera?

And yes. The truth is getting out there. I'm continually amazed at the number of people I meet who are not surprised when I ask if they knew 9/11 was an inside job. Their response is invariably affirmative.
Hey
BMAC: WTF are you talking about? I actually spent some time trying to persuade the Colonel that you and she might simply be misunderstanding each other, and now this crap? Just ignore her and she will just ignore you. Dragging her name into a discussion in which she is not involved just to insult her is guaranteed to bring down the wrath of our beneficent 911blogger overlords.
Ahem--I agreed to IGNORE you as long as you didn't MISBEHAVE...
Items of misbehavior:
1: sexist mocking of my gender via "he/she" as if it was hard to tell from the recent pics I blogged.
2: re: casseia's post, dragging me into this thread--for NO apparent reason except an attempt to start a flame war--by making vague inuendos about my character that have NOTHING to do with this thread/blog.
It is very important at 911Blogger for our site to be a place where all 911activists are welcome and feel they can have discussions--and even disagreements--in a mature civil manner. Unfortunately, posts like yours, BMAC, do not represent what the 911Blogger experience should be about between fellow 911activists. I would like to believe that you share our values of respectfull discourse, even disagreement. Regretfully your above nonsensical beligerent post indicates otherwise and I have notified the moderators accordingly.
Impeachment. Accountability. A better world.

good thing i dont have a camera :-)
Hey, that's not true!
First of all, "they" are an amalgam of individuals, not the Euroborg. Secondly, the weak minded tend to externalize their demons -- be it europeans hating on americans, americans hating on "islamofascists" or any other tragic case of indiscriminate group A hating on indiscriminate group B to avoid self reflection, and with it, self improvement. It is easier to fight (or hate) for one's principles than to live up to them -- as we all know, humans are prone to taking the low road, sometimes.
I am a european, and I'm always delighted to meet americans -- a chance to talk english and a chance for spreading some truth -- so please take notice that you are not hated here.

"the Euroborg"
That made me laugh!
Youre right of course about the psychology, but I think the "hating Americans" is more about hating US forgiegn policy and less about individual Yanks--though there are exceptions!
"We are the Euroborg--we will merge your cultural and culinary distictivness with our own....resistance is futile!"
Impeachment. Accountability. A better world.
we will merge your cultural
we will merge your cultural and culinary distictivness with our own
Well I guess we're safe in America... unless the Euroborg really WANT to assimilate Jackass and Cheezwiz (which actually goes great with foie gras...) actually think about it... the Borg were pale, dressed in all black and rode around in a totally modernist (cubist) ship. Of COURSE they were Euros!
