Thousands Arrive in Crawford for Dueling Rallies
At the pro-Bush rally several miles away, there were some heated moments when two members of Protest Warrior, a group that frequently holds counter protests to anti-war rallies, walked in with a sign that read "Say No to War - Unless a Democrat is President."
Many Bush supporters only saw the top of the sign and believed the men were war protesters, so they began shouting and chasing the pair out. One man tore up their signs. When Will Marean of Minneapolis kept repeating that he was on the Bush side and tried to explain Protest Warrior's mission, one Bush supporter shook his hand and apologized.
But this kind of thick-headedness is exactly what leads some non-rich people to vote for the likes of the Bush family. They don't recognize their own interests.
One supporter was ready to admit he had been mistaken. Yep, that's about the percentage I'd expect to change their minds when presented with the facts.
