Hey look, another misdirected use of the word "fascist" for the circular file. Put down the talking points memo ... now step back slowly ... slowly ... that's it. Everything will be ok. You should head down there right now and tell each and every one of those soldiers to their faces how much the protestors are "supporting" them. Let me know when you get out of the hospital and your broken bones heal.

Sleep disturbance is a common cause of death in hospitals, and surely such protests do not therefore promote healing among all. Such blatant attempts to induce or intensify mental fatigue might actually be prosecutable. If the protesters are so convinced that their message should be pro-claimed, with direct effects upon war-wounded gauged, a more appropriate location can be negotiated and filmed, with videotapes 'awarded' to those war-wounded who want them. This is surely a civil-rights issue for war-wounded and families, who may detect some sort of "seed spilled upon the ground" attitude and strategy. Ther is no excuse for able-bodied people to disturb such war-wounded who are doubtless trying to mentally order their own thoughts and assimilate their own experiences.

I have never heard such trash as from most of your commentators. Of course the protesters are supporting the troops. They want to prevent others from ending up in that hospital. Code Pink is a well known anti war advocacy group. Your commentators sound like right wing loons who think war is a good thing. It isn't.

The Bush fascists are the most dangerous government this country has ever had. Something has to be done to stop them.

This group of âprotestersâ sounds like the usaual group of professional troublemakers who apparently donât have to work for a living. They do not represent most of the people in this country opposed to the war. I am opposed to The Bush adminâs policy, these wounded vets deserve nothing but our support.

Well said, Anjin-san.

Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes once wrote into a decision that "The Bill of Rights IS NOT a suicide pact". Translation......The right of free speech being guaranteed to the feckless anti-war protesters at Walter Reed Hospital (guaranteed by the very sacrifice of the veterans whom they now disgrace) is WRONG, and hurtful. They should move their protest to the Pentagon if they are do disposed. This group of protesters would be the first to CRY FOUL if a protest in support of War were held in front of their own homes.

The term "despicable" coms to mind, but it's not harsh enough for the protesters. Were I one of them, I'd look up the word "karma" and rethink my method of protesting.

These morons actually claim to support the troops. This isn't support this is one of the most disgusting acts of lunacy ever undertaken in American history. These hero's who are at Walter Reed don't need to hear this left wing rhetoric. Their sacrifice and devotion demands and deserves better. If these loonies want to protest move from this sight. This is not a, "vigil" as they call it. It is a disgrace and dishonors everyone in Walter Reed and the nation they serve!

Beating the hell out of war veterans of course. No, in all seriousness, these three thugs beat the crap out of some war veterans the other day in Seattle. Luckily the whole thing was caught on video. They need help finding the suspects though. The...

Respect for our Troops

Some Dems will tell you that they support our troops, but not the war. The statement in itself is contradictory. But now, some Dems have taken their protest of the war too far and have trampled over the feelings and...

Just a quick note that you and everyone else already noticed: "Commission Votes to Close Walter Reed Army Medical Center"

The panel voted unanimously Thursday morning to close the Walter Reed hospital, where U.S. presidents, foreign leaders, veterans and wounded soldiers have been treated since it opened in 1909. Walter Reed's services will be moved to the Bethesda military hospital and to a new hospital in Fort Belvoir in southeastern Fairfax County.

Protestors at Walter Reed Army Hospital?

The scumbag appeasement pansies protestors have plummeted to a new low that will probably make you vomit. They are protesting outside Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington D.C. The group that is organizing the protests happens to be one
