Big Protests agains Bush ...all down the Street in Kennebunkport !

[KoKo]

Lots of older folks along with middle and young. Look like typical Kennebunkport folks...but huge stream! Shown on FOX! Would you believe?

They also showed a pix of 41 and 43 in their Power Boat dressed in black and speeding. The Fox anchor said "I wouldn't want to be in that boat with 41."
The other anchor said "well that boat goes 70 miles an hour."

Where is Laura? She wasn't in that boat and I'm wondering if they were speeding so you wouldn't notice. There was a woman in the back with dark hair covered up wearing sunglasses...but it wasn't Laura. Maybe the Bush sister Doro? Or a female SS Agent.

9. Thanks.....I was convinced there was a big marital problem....

It does seem she keeps her distance...but if she was at church then that's evidence she's there.

[hlthe2b]

16. Don't be so sure... Yesterday an AP or reuters photo of them

all leaving church dated back two years. MSM is pulling file photos/file video. We are "sucking" it up, unfortunately...

[Scout1071]

32. That pic is stock photo from 3 yrs ago. nt

[MADem]

19. You mean Maine...CT is three states away!

And why would they be going to church on FRIDAY? It ain't church day till tomorrah!!!!!

[Scout1071]

31. That AP pic is 3 years old. nt

[DoYouEverWonder]

34. Read the fine print

That pic was from over a month ago.

Laura's nowhere in sight lately.

[Clark2008]

36. That picture was years old - re-read the caption.

Marge Trowbridge, a lone supporter of President George W. Bush, carries a sign claiming she is surrounded by idiots as she walks in front of an anti-war protest on Ocean Avenue in Kennebunkport, Maine, Saturday afternoon Aug. 26, 2006.

4. I'm surrounded by idiots thanks Marge

What is that piece of cloth hanging down below her sign? Can anyone zoom in to check that out?






thanks for the photos by the way.

[DoYouEverWonder]

37. I think she deserves to be this month's

Freeper Poster Girl.

She's right up there with Moran Man.

[rodeodance]

5. hey, the bushies seem to be out of sorts in their terrain. te he.

[Skip Intro]

6. wow

that is awesome

[KoKo]

7. Thanks for the great Pix of the Protest! ...........

:thumbsup:

[pberq]

8. BU$H = TRAITOR

Great sign.

[rsmith6621]

12. She Represents The Majority of Those

Who still support this clown administration if you look at the poll numbers.



Shes the idiot wearing that heavy jacket.

[annabanana]

27. A member of the backwash brigade...

the dirty 30%

a "some of the people, all of the time" kinda gal

[Lindacooks]

13. And in true Repuke MORAN fashion, she misspells a word in the sign.

It should be 'Idiots', not 'Idiot's'.

God, those people are stupid.

[Diane R]

20. To say nothing of the two capitol 'R's in 'surrounded' n/t

[Tansy_Gold]

28. That should be "capital," not "capitol" ;-) n/t

[MADem]

22. Aww give her a break, she probably hasn't been taking her Aricept

lately....she's wandered off from the home, they'll come fetch her eventually.

[liam_laddie]

24. From an old (literally) proofreader

it's "moron," not "moran" unless of course you were being sarcastic, in which case I agree.
I also see a lot of "hugh" (a man's name) when "huge" (large) is intended. So, Lindacooks,
you're hardly alone and this is not at all an attack, but I'd be a much happier camper if just
the level of spelling skill across the board were higher.
Are schools teaching spelling any more? English? Critical thinking? Ohhh...wait, Marge
Spellings (no pun, I'm sure) and NCLB are in the ascendancy now. PITY!
:eyes:

[katinmn]

25. Moran is a well-known joke here. As are Hugh and I'm Series!!!

Stick around and see them in action. :hi:

[annabanana]

30. a breif "moran" history

(hence the DU spelling of the word)

[glitch]

41. Hugh and seriesly!!!! and moran are all old DU jokes because they were

used by freepers. As far as I know other mispellings aren't intentional.

[Lindacooks]

53. Moran is a sarcastic spelling, from a freeper sign before

the war, where a dipshit spelled moron "Moran" in a sign that read: Get a Brain Morans! Go USA!

[liam_laddie]

65. Thanks to all for the backgrounders!

Still, "moran" grates on my eyeballs....the dark side certainly is moranic.

[Generic Other]

29. No there is no possessive apostrophe at all

Idiots is plural.

[jberryhill]

35. Correction - "Idiots ARE plural"

But they are less of a plurality than they used to be.

heh.

[Generic Other]

44. Technically correct, but the "word" is plural

which is what I meant. I suppose trying to sort out the silly usage problems of rightwingers is an idiot's task.

[struggle4progress]

47. Uh, you confused a terminal single-quote mark with an apostrophe

[Lindacooks]

52. So? Why not comment on my point?

[struggle4progress]

54. It seems to me that my #47 says the same thing your #51 says --

and is, moreover, in response to the same post -- the only major difference being that I beat you there by a few minutes, a fact that I suppose I could try to lord over you in perpetuity but that I will instead graciously drop.

So if you think "Why not comment on my point?" is an appropriate rejoinder to the spirited defense I offered of your posted punctuation, then under usual reciprocity conventions I shall feel entirely comfortable asking "Why not comment on your own point yourself?"

[Lindacooks]

55. Good grief.

My ignore list is going to grow.

[struggle4progress]

59. Wall that'll shore larn me ta stick up fer ya!

:patriot:

[Generic Other]

56. Ah, I am blind

In my defense, I have always been taught that double quotes are standard usage in this case.

[struggle4progress]

58. I myself find that almost every time I complain of typos or spelling ..

.. errors, my own post will contain typos or spelling errors.

[Generic Other]

60. Hey, aren't you on ignore? Or is that me?

:hi:

[Lindacooks]

62. My point is:

recognize the illiteracy of the repuke who wrote the sign, DO NOT attack other Democrats.

But I guess that's just too much to ask from some people.

Sheesh.

[struggle4progress]

64. Who knows?

:hi:

[Lindacooks]

51. Yes, I know that. I put the entire word 'idiots' in quotes.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

14. I always love it when the news points out the "lone counterprotestor"

It makes me happy inside.

[calimary]

61. A lone counterprotestor compared to 700 protestors. With odds like

this, we may just make one of those protest signs come true - the one that said "bush third term: PRISON."

Visualize his orange jumpsuit...

After IMPEACHMENT and REMOVAL FROM OFFICE, of course.

[malaise]

15. Love it

thanks

[tanyev]

18. Hey, Marge! No one's forcing you to be there.

You walked yourself into that group of people, and now you can't figure out how to get out? You do need help.

[oncall]

23. I will bet anything she is being paid to stand there.

[Tinksrival]

26. Is that Large Marge!!

[Scout1071]

33. Now Marge knows how we have felt for the last 6 years. n t

[Clark2008]

39. Can we tar and feather his ass yet?

Run him out of OUR house - the White House - on a rail, yet?

[DesertRat]

49. Thanks for the photos!

:bounce:

[Imagevision]

57. It's surprising Bushco couldn't put dampner on protestors...

[immoderate]

10. It's good to see this.

--IMM

[countingbluecars]

11. Poor Bush,

can't vacation peacefully in Crawford, can't vacation peacefully in Kennebunkport. How fitting!

[oncall]

17. A single protester supporting Bush?

I would say that is an accurate ratio today - 1 of 200.

[rodeodance]

21. see here also. story in LBN

38. Happy happy to see this happening.

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

40. Don't you think Poppy is PO'd? He's been vacationing there for decades,

with minimal interference from the good folks in Kennebunkport.

Now, his son has visited the wrath of the locals upon him.

:rofl: MKJ

[SammyWinstonJack]

50. That's what he gets for having his son's wrath visited upon us.

:nopity: I hope it really messed up their weekend!

[calimary]

63. Tough shit for poppy. That's what he deserves for raising such a worthless

bum for a son. Raising a spoiled, arrogant, petty little dilletante who clearly has NEVER been told "no" in his entire life, much less being forced to face any consequences for his ongoing bad behavior.

Tough shit. He sired this blight-on-the-world. He shares the blame.

I hope those protestors follow this bunch of baboons EVERYWHERE. I hope they're hounded. I hope the crowds of protestors grow bigger and bigger. I hope the bushes get no rest. No peace. That's what they've foisted on all the rest of us. It's only fair that they get their share, too.

Bring 'em on.

[katinmn]

42. They protested him in Wayzata, too, where the wealthiest

Minnesotans live.

Long time Repubs refused to join him at a fundraiser there this week.

America hates Bush! :evilgrin:

[formercia]

43. Time to visit Mumsy

she lives just down the street....

[McCamy Taylor]

45. Should have stayed in Crawford

[earth mom]

48. Marges' sign should read: HELP! I AM A IDIOT!

:eyes:

p.s. Great to see this protest! :bounce:
