Protesting the Protesters

Some 18 people from groups that oppose anti-war protests as “anti-American” hoisted signs condemning CODEPINK as supporting terrorism.

This makes little sense to me. Those who protest against the war do so because it's their right to do so. Following that logic it seems to me those who disagree with that should be there not to protest that freedom but should be glorifying what happens in war.

This quote is amazing to say the least.
“I feel I have more in common with them than I do with most Americans,” Benjamin said.
To make a statement like that which I understand clearly explains how fucked up people are in this country when it comes to the war in Iraq. We are so screwed.
