Looking at all those people holding vigils makes me wonder ....
don't these people have jobs? Christ!

If this was a "liberal" cause, some schmuck at Faux would bring it up.

1. You're absolutely right!
That's the main rallying cry of the Freepers when Democrats/Liberals have any sort of gathering.

3. But isn't it amazing to watch, to see
how good right wingers are at faking sincerity?

I would be willing to bet that not one of them really gives a damn about the person they are trying to "save".

Its just all self-importance on display.

4. It's not real, It's like any other bad movie.
This one is "The Return of the Living Dead". These fundamentalist ghouls
really don't have anything better to do.

6. Some are professional protesters, who survive on donations.
There was an article posted here on DU a few days ago about this family
that had about 8 kids that traveled all over the country.
They went wherever they were "needed".

9. Parlock. Yep, I wonder about that, too.
Some sharp eyed DUer may see him on TV before this is all over. :)

8. There was a story recently
in the St. Petersburg Times about the protestors appearing when the cameras and reporters showed up and disappearing when the cameras left..It's all arranged by folks like Randall Terry etc... Randall's wife (the one who used to be his secretary that he left his wife and children for) paints the protest signs.

10. Not only that, but do they EVER do anything to help people??
If they have all of this free time, don't they volunteer at homeless shelters and food shelves, rock AIDS babies, volunteer for Big Brothers/Big Sisters, volunteer at public schools, etc. etc.
