in the USA there will always be peace marches
but there are never war rally marches

so its kinda hard to gauge. i mean you can have 10,000 supporters show up and you see it on TV and say damn thats alote of people but what about the 300 million people at home that are mostly for the war. that why i dont listen to peace marches unless you start getting MILLIONS in every state marching

i read the first link and it was obvious that it was written by a liberal left winger as they spoke of hollywood stars like susan serandon (which is as close to radical liberal as one could get), another democratic leader, and jesse jackson (who's beliefs have no weight with me). i mean there was no conservative representation whatsoever.

also im kinda surprised that ONLY 5,000 people showed up for the rally in SF (probly the most liberal city in the universe).

and the second link to the NYtimes said i had to registar so i didnt even read it. but it would probly be the same being that the NYTimes is one of the most liberal newspapers in the country.

1st question>>> i explained earlier i didnt say the paper was left wing i said the journalist SOUNDED left wing because he only got reaction from people on the left (serandon, jackson, hollywood stars, democratic representative) and didnt get reaction from the middle or the right into the article.

2nd question>>> look at all the stuff she fights for, also heard that shit on Hannity and Colmes and on The O'Reilly Factor

3rd question>>> you misquoted me i didnt say THE MOST i said ONE OF THE MOST. and i heard that on Hannity ond Colmes from Sean Hannity

the bbc articles states:
"The protests took place as US Secretary of State Colin Powell said the protracted negotiations at the UN over the adoption of a resolution on Iraq must move forward; the organisation was entering a key week and could not continue to hold a never-ending debate. "

and

"Mr Bush on Saturday reiterated his vow that the US would use force against Iraq if Saddam Hussein did not disarm, whether or not the UN supported such action.
"If the UN won't act, if Saddam Hussein won't disarm, we will lead a coalition to disarm him," he said."

so the gathering was a reaction from the people who have a
reason not to go to war

what would have a right winger said? you heard that shit all
the time coming from the white house....why do you want that
repeated in the article? all those people are against it

so what if they bbc article was "left wing" has you claim, doesn't that mean don't listen to them?

"hollywood stars, democratic representative" leftist? lol


in april when hugo chavez was overthrown, the nytimes quickly
reported that he resign his presidencical...which was not true and not fair in reporting...major newspaper in the US quickly began saying that he resign...they should have knowned better, where the indenpentant media reported the truth...doesn't that sound like a liberal paper to you??


and don't come at me with you fox said so...am not buying your
sources...you never back anything you say its just your lame
opinion.

http://www.fair.org/media-outlets/o'reilly.html

and as for the whole fox news channel, it sounds like crap
http://www.fair.org/extra/0108/fox-main.html


so then your sources are crap...if you can't come up with
better ones other than your opinion, i'm not wasting my time on you.

in the 1st article you posted (the BBC one) it said 5000 supporters turned out. not my fault if now you got other source saying more. i was just going by the article you posted.

well the fox news chanel is "fair and balanced" their anchors are Liberal>>>geraldo rivera, greta van sustren, alan colmes
Conservative>>>sean hannity, brit hume, and
Indepentant>>> bill O'Reilly
so you know you getting both sides as opposed to other sources such as CNN where if your a known conservative there is no way in hell that you will get hired by ted turner.

those are unfair reviews. OReilly was bashing on both AShcroft and bush for nearly 1 month everyday for not disclosing reports on Enron, he bashed on Govoner Pataki (although i dont remember if hes dem. or rep. but i believe he beat gov Cuomo in NY so i think he is a republican. If i am wrong im sure you will let me know) for about 4 months on a daily basis for stalling on disbursement of the 1.3 billion dollars people gave to the victims of 9-11 fund (red cross, united way). of course he has a great dislike for hillary clinton and jesse jackson but well they arent saints. only way to find the ruth is to watch for yourself dont go by what other people say.

just try it its on channel 360 on DirecTV> watch Hannity and Colmes, and O'Reilly your in fresno right? so they are on at
5:00 O'Reilly and
6:00 Hannity and COlmes
