*shaking my head*
I shouldn't be surprised... yet I still am. People just don't get it. Protesting the president, publically, what do they hope to accomplish? Further creating chaos in our own country? or driving an even deeper line among us, making "sides" a necessity & a fear factor for those who might have hopes along each edge?
According to the news (breaking in just now) signs say things to the extent of 'Bush compares to Hitler', 'worse than Nixon', etc. 6-7 folks have already been arrested. Most are the younger, possibly college-aged demographic. Traffic is stopped all around the downtown area.
erg, it just riles me up. I love our president. I feel like he was appointed to a position most of us could hardly handle, and does his best in that. I feel like he deserves our respect, at least that, if not more!
