CARLOS, A GOLD STAR FATHER WAS BEATEN BY THE "GATHERING EAGLES" AT THE MARCH IN DC THIS PAST WEEKEND


I am asking you to go to Crooks&Liars today and read Logan Murphy's post about Carlos, the Gold Star Father that was Beaten Up at the Anti War March on Saturday , he was beaten up by the ProWar Group "The Gathering Eagles". It is horrific what happened to him. Please go read this and also see More Footage on Left of Centrist. We need to be able as A Nation to know that VETS and their Families can not be treated this way. The Media has Refused to acknowledge or cover Carlos's Story. This should NOT happen in America.

As a parent how can we not be horrified what is happening in this country , Our Country.

Keith Olbermann will have another award winning "Special Comment" about Bush tonight.

That's terrible! That speaks of what I wrote about yesterday or the day before. How far will this Bush created division go to squelch the part of society that disagrees with Bush? This is bad and it will get worse.
I remember hearing a while back about forming a Bloggers Union and I thought that was a good idea. This is the first I heard about forming a group, Bloggers for Democracy or whatever. I do not see it making any difference whatsoever as Bush ramps up for another new order war and the promise of trillions more in debt.
He will listen to and stop for no one but we can not stop trying to do something.

One vet is quoted as calling them the *Gathering of Vultures*- these people were very aggressive.
Grabbing a poster photo of a grieving Father's memorial to his son really crossed the line. Why were those guys not arrested?
If it were teh other way around & anti war folks threw one of theirs to the ground & kicked & beat someone--- woud they not be in jail or charged? They charged that college kid with inciting a riot... but these people really did, I was floored to see cops there but no arrests made? WTF?

I visited a site called "A Gathering of Eagles," and it has a Fascist look and smell to it. Whoever put this up would have been right at home with Hitler in the 1930s. They announce they are going to "protect the Vietnam War Memorial" from anti war marchers who would spit on it or throw paint on it or deface it somehow. This is all bogus. No one wants to deface the memorial.

They also announce they will all wear Armbands. How appropriate.
