More on the Gathering of Eagles

Wonk continues to be amazed at the great grafix coming in documenting the "Gathering of Eagles" counter-demonstration against the Commie-crat surrender brigades that came to DC last week to demand that America chicken out in Iraq by way of "redeployment," presumably stateside. This treasonous nonsense, added to the desecration of the Capitol building by a previous crop of nutroots demonstrators, riled our seemingly forgotten 'Nam Vets enough to rise up en masse and head for DC themselves. They provided the Stalinists with a little opposition for a change, not to mention protecting the Vietnam Memorial from potential desecration by the political descendents of those 1960s leftists who did their best to flat-out guarantee that American troops did indeed die in vain. This show of force by real American patriots (as opposed to faux patriots like the disgraceful Congressman John Murtha [D-Nutroots]).

As has been pointed out elsewhere, the Republicans lost both houses of Congress last year not because of opposition to the Iraqi stanza of the Global War on Terror. They were booted out because, almost overnight, they had turned into Democrats, spending like drunken sailors and ignoring the wishes of those who had sent them to Washington on a reformist agenda. Their wishy-washiness on the illegal immigration issue also did not help.

Much as we like W, he's become tone-deaf when it comes to the anger of American citizens over the effects on our cities and our economy of the brazen hordes of illegals. The Dems are only too happy to encourage their wholesale importation as a means of adding Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas to their permanent electoral lock on California where they did the same thing during the Clinton administration which actively encouraged this. (Though they'll never admit it.) Add that to W's botched management of the Iraqi theater until recently, and voilà! You have a weakened presidency.

Unfortunately, the always-myopic and never subtly leftist MSM interpreted this as putting Americans squarely behind the Democrats' surrender agenda. But the Gathering of Eagles this past weekend proved the overwhelming falsity of this facile spin. The Eagles have clearly demonstrated that we're only in the early innings of a very long ballgame—one that will result in the permanent destruction of the Hate-America-First Marxists who have been systematically been destroying our courts, our laws, our universities, our media, our churches, and our kids for generations. Welcome back, Eagles. Your leadership is needed now more than ever.

UPDATE/POSTSCRIPT: In the interest of furthering the truth, here's another interesting comment from "Papa Ray," gathered from Bellmont Club's initial post on this same event:

Jeez, I just love it when sparks fly here.

By The Way..It seems that the MSM accomplished it's mission re the DC protest.

They managed to keep it low in the news, managed to misrepresent the anti-war protesters as having many thousands and the poor unwashed veterans as having a few hundred there.

Actually according to the U.S. Park Service, the Vets had over 30,000 peons there and the shining anti-war citizens at about 10,000. Many of the peaceniks left early (and left their trash) because it was too cold for their sensibilities, while the Vets patroled all of the monuments and cleaned up their trash and took it with them, long after the last socialist liberal left.
