News – Masked demonstrators protesting the upcoming G-8 summit meeting hurled stones and flagpoles at police on Saturday, a spokeswoman said, describing a scene of chaos in the harbor of this northern port city.
its Feast time for the dems and libs the G8 Summit gives them plenty to twist and false fact find, I cant wait to see what they come up with, it will be good for a great laugh thio im sure. Come dems dont let me down, i need a good laugh to day its been a few days since i had a good laugh at you guys.
I'm not sure what you are talking about. I'm not a "dem" so I can't speak for them, but what makes you think that "dems and libs" condone violence. Thugs are thugs whether they are on the right, left, or in the middle.
King.
I have to disagree with you on most of this.
Few comments above I gave you a "good" vote before I learn your trend of thought.
You said: "Democrats are endorsing & physically embrasing Communists like Chavez."
It is as false as Monopoly Money.
All the Democrats and Independents I know are ANTI CHAVEZ !
seems to be you are making up facts.
A negative for you on this one.
How quickly we forget
2002: 16 US congressmen voiced their approval for Chavez. Reps Barney Frank, John Conyers, Chaka Fattah, Jan Schakowsky, Jose Serrano, & others complained in a letter to President Bush that the US was not adequately protecting Chavez against internal opposition to his increasingly authoritarian rule
Rep Cass Ballenger(R-NC) has had a relationship with Chavez. Ballenger has emphasized that the "Venezuelan Caucus" he established with William Delahunt (D-MA) exists to "show friendship to President Chavez & to encourage him to embrace democracy." Ballenger and Hunt have embraced Chavez--and served as his US tour guides
Iowa Sen Tom Harkin(D) defended Venezuelan President Chavez's UN speech
(Charles Rangel, a House Democrat, did denounce the Chavez UN speech)
Jimmy Carter endorsed the results of the Chavez election
Cindy Sheehan joined Chavez for the World Social Forum in Caracas
You don't know any of these Democrats?
King1Con,
The Reds were neither dems nor libs. They probably would have been offended by being called that.
Martin Luther King jr. might have been followed by thugs, but did he condone violence? You can't control who follows you.
Are militant environmentalists dems or libs? What group do they claim to belong to?
How has Chavez hurt you? I can understand if his own people don't like some of his actions, but that's their business. What's your problem with him. Isn't he a democratically elected president? Doesn't the US want to spread democracy in the world?
> The Reds were neither dems nor libs. They probably would have been offended by being called that.
I'm not sure where you've got this information but the official Soviet propaganda was based on an idea that Soviet Union was the 'most democratic' state on the planet and the Soviet people under the Communist regime were the most free people in the world (Liberation means "freedom" and 'liberals' are those working for liberation).
Thinker22,
As you've said, that was the propaganda, but they would never have called themselves either democrats or liberals. They were Bolsheviks or Communists, or is that not derogatory enough for you?
Candida:
The Reds were neither dems nor libs.
This was true up until the mid 50' to early 60's when the communists infiltration of colleges, the press and Hollywood was well underway....after the mid 60's Reds = DemLibs...militant enviromentalists and envirowhackos are commie DemLibs....and Chavez was not a Democratically elected President unless you counsider that the entire election was rigged with Jimmy Carter's help...he's a commie too, BTW....
"Democrats are endorsing & physically embrasing Communists like Chavez while they are on American soil, preaching their message of hate against America and elected officials"
I think Candida had it right when they said that it doesn't matter whether a thug is left or right, they are a thug that will incite things that none of us want.
I think we have to all step back a little and reacquaint ourselves with one another and stop assuming that the other party is socialist, when I am sure nothing is farther from the truth.
They are good and patriotic senators and congressmen and woman who will do the right thing for this country, and there are the corrupt ones also that will do anything to extend their wealth, at any cost, even the American people.
It does not matter in the least if murderer is a democrat or republican, they are still a murderer.
We have to do a much better job in finding and electing the people who make the decisions that effects our lives.
That's really patriotic, "patriotic American"! To laugh at people you disagree with really puts you more at an immature junior high school level than a patriotic one. Laughing at people you disagree with does nothing to help this failing nation. In fact, it's people with your mentality that chooses to laugh instead of act that is carrying this nation to hell in a hand basket.
But he said dem/libs, and he's talking about what they're going to say. Maybe YOU were refering to such, but pat obviously wants to laugh at what ppl who don't agree with him have to say
King.
You are confusing me. On this I agree 100%.
On this one I gave you a "Good", I wonder bay the end of the blogg the type of balance we will get.

But what happen when the masses start resorting to violence as a means of defense against those who oppress them. The world has turned into one that prays on the weak and uses them to make money on. In every one of the G 8 countries the divide between rich and poor is growing at an incredible rate, more people now are among the working poor than ever before while the rich elite increase their holdings with record profits in Banking, Insurance, and Gas companies. The governments do nothing because they are bought and payed for with political donations and kickbacks. This free market economy that Americans brag about is ruining the very core of civilization. Many families have both mom and dad working multiple jobs and many with small businesses on the side, and the kids paying the immediate price along with the whole of society down the road.
Jaydee40:
You must remember that the rich do spend and invest their money, income, profits on new companies, bigger companies, more equipment for existing companies, etc...and everything the spend means more jobs for everyone else. The Governments do not do much because by this process the government has more tax incme from the rich and the people they employ. A big part of the probelm is that we really do not have a free market ecomony...it is massively regulated and taxed....

"There are massive assaults on police officers at the city's harbor right now," said Cordula Feichtinger, a police spokeswoman. "The situation is currently very chaotic and we have to get it under control before I can tell you how many people have been arrested." She said one officer was slightly injured.
Why is this news? This happens at every G8 or similar event. You can count on these Leftist and no doubt "anti-war" protesters to always leave a trail of injury, destruction and sometimes death in their wake.
The ones who say"antiwar" and protest violently are just a brain dead and heartless as those who send our troops into a country that was not threatening us and starting a war. Not all protesters are being violent. you just can't seem to get your blinders off, for one second, can you?
King: Except for the Cindy Sheehan lines I mostly agree with you on this one.
King1Con,
You just don't seem to be able to accept that the majority of protesters, in most protests, just want to express their disapproval of something through non-violent means. Every movement has some fringe elements who are just looking for the opportunity to cause trouble. Should the Right to Life movement be identified with those who shoot doctors?
"Should the Right to Life movement be identified with those who shoot doctors?"
Absolutely. If they allow the violent extremists to participate in their demonstrations and don't do everything in their power to denounce and shun them.
I've been to major anti-war demonstrations and this is certainly not the case. The Pro-Lifers understand and have pretty much run the violent fringe off.
So guilt by association applies.
Left wingers aren't good at running people off. Anyone can join them, whatever their motivation. That is why wise leaders choose to go ahead and follow the reasonable ideas of the left, because its less of a hassle than the alternative. Globalization has destroyed the third worlds' economies and increases the levels of immigration to the US and Europe (far more to Europe), raising tension levels back again among the right wing such as we are seeing now severely in the US and has been a problem in Europe for a while- the last time Rostock was in the news was for a riot against turkish Gastarbeiter (guest workers) in the early 90's.
bobo - who says they ALLOW extremists to participate.
Do they screen every person that says " i'd like to support your cause"? maybe they should...
...but then that would infringe on rights, AND it would put alot of ppl out that really are trying to be peacful.
You can't blame the extremism on the whole group.
And that is the same argument as with the Iraq war.
foksipayne says:
bobo - who says they ALLOW extremists to participate.
Actually the protests are organized and pay for by the extremists such as George Soros and moveon and other neo commie organizations.....The protesters included the Workers World Party(WWP), International ANSWER, Progressive Labor Party, Freedom Road Socialist Organization, World Socialist Web Site, Cuba Solidarity, Revolutionary Communist Party USA, the Communist Party USA, the Communist World Peace Council, International Action Center(IAC)- a group founded by Ramsey Clark and staffed by members of the WWP, anarchist communists involved with Anarkismo.net....
Anyone who feels its patriotic to be anti-war when an armed enemy is actively seeking to destroy you, is not only un-patriotic, they are cowardly and self-loathing. When are the traitors of the "peace" movement going to stand up like adults and take responsibility for 2 million slaughtered in Cambodia, ethnic cleansing in Vietnam, and 800,000 dead in Rhawanda. When you fail to confront evil you simply allow it to thrive. The so called peace movement is a hollow idea of moral cowardice lead by angry, disgruntled people who are mostly unhappy with the failures of their own lives.
Well I for one think that EVERYONE should be peaceful. Unfortunately others think that they are required to go and jump into every dispute, including those that do not involve them.
Like Clinton in Serbia?
NEVER, EVER FORGET WHAT george w bush HAS COST YOU & YOURS
NEVER FORGET PRE-bush AMERICA
BoBo, it takes two to tango.
Just like our current admin.
I agree that the hostile ones are.
King:
I do not get the idea, could you be more explicit?
> Ironic how true your statement unfortunately is.
The very fact that you are still alive and even able to post here proves how WRONG his statement actually is.
no, that just proves that they are smarter than the average commie. It would be stupid for them to kill me over some words because the nation of ppl would rise up against them. They don't want to end up like all the others.
King1Con: "the compelled surfdom of people to a government through increasing centralized health care benefits"
The US has centralized health care? When did that happen?
yeah when this happens, I'll be a little less disgruntled.
(aimed at blkolives)
Communist, Capitalist, whats the difference, they both only care about them selves.
Burning, mayhem, injuring police officers, for what?. Nothing but a political statement that means nothing. Use force and make it hurt.
bush: THE WORLD'S MOST HATED man.
People who disregard public opinion and do the right thing in spite of it, are usually the most hated by cowards.....
