Veterans Against Iraq in the News

I didn’t think they sold these anymore….

The Clown

Not sure what he is suppose to be..but I wouldn’t be standing there with my kids on my shoulders.

Right Wing Deprogramming a Transvestite

Widget_bzhm-v1v1k7ydjtdt6oz95

Need I say more…..

Lanyards

Widget_ddwu8uh6tfbl5fzu3jhys6

Yes, you are cool. Your big-ass lanyards get you in to the DNC, but do you need to wear it everywhere???

 

Street Theater

Probably the best demonstration I have ever seen…check out this video.

The End is Near...

A man wearing old school snorkeling goggles, yelling “The end is near”

Say What?

Her sign says “I am an atheist, lesbian, make-do female transsexual. And I embrace it all” Huh???

3 Heads are better than 1

Dude…don’t your arms get tired?

Trojan Booth

Widget_dczp-wpa1hubwyize8s8cw

A Trojan condom booth within the security perimeter, where only delegates pass by. They were giving out condoms to the delegates…who was their PR person? I think the less responsible people were deprogramming transvestites…

Rednecks for Obama

Widget_cbx_9iq0lhplbdv6j6_bfo

There are plenty of rednecks in Denver. There’s a fair share of vocal Obama supporters. But the intersection of those two sets equals 2.

Police Line - DO NOT CROSS

Widget_c1rqwrbwbjdrpycketwqqz

Police in full riot gear mounted on armored horses. The scene was getting intense as the Iraq veterans against the war protesters joined forces with the Vietnam veterans against the war. Ron Kovic, for whom Born on the Fourth of July was based, was in the group in his wheelchair. The difference here was that the protesters were not arrested. And to their surprise, their demands were met when the Obama campaign allowed them to send a representative into the Pepsi Center to negotiate.
