Re:No protesters at the DNC? (Score 1)

The group was the Iraq Veterans against the War. They were not trying to "prove that democrats did not care about veterans". Their three main goals are "Immediate withdrawal, full veterans benefits, and reparations for the Iraqi people". They had a statement in a letter they wanted read to the delegates during the convention.

Sure an Obama rep finally agreed to talk with them. However all they did was take the letter and said they would get back to them. They never did. So much for hope.

Nice trick to end the protest and get good press while actually doing nothing.

Remember Mohamed Ali's Rope a Dope? The new version is now Hope a Dope. I'm supporting Nader's campaign to stop corporate dominance of the government.
