More than 200 protesters marched a half mile to a rally at the military academy's gates. They carried candles and protest signs saying "The audacity of torture,'' "Get out now," and "How many lives per gallon?'' One protester, carrying a large cardboard bomb, wore an American flag as a cape and a mask of President Bush breaking through a mask of Obama.

  • Damn these protesters they think Obama is like a god and should be able to fix things in one freakin day If these people dont like how things are being ran then why dont they run to become president and try and fix Major world problems in one night

  • When it comes to PEACE.... I'll be the first one in line. I'm just curious if these ppl actually protest during President Bush terms, or are they just starting it now?

    If they DID protest during President Bush terms, they can count me in as one of them.

    If the answer is "no". Tsk tsk tsk.... they're just President Obama's haters.

    Also, I think that the U.S. Gov'ment is much more intelligent than u think. They wouldn't be in Afghanistan for no particular reason.

  • "or do u go after those bastards?"

    And you actually think we went after them? The 9/11 hijackers were from Saudi Arabia.. Not Afghanistan or Iraq. You are obviously going to disagree with me, but that's okay. I believe both Bush and Obama did not handle our crisis very well.

  • The war in Afghanistan is.... DAMM if we do....and DARN if we don't. Please remember 9/11, if someone attack/killed one of ur families (wife or kids)...do u just built a better home security system...or do u go after those bastards?

    If US stays in the war... more ppl will die. But if US get out of it...then ppl will say that Pres. Obama did nothing to protect the citizens of this country from terrorists.

    Think clearly before u hit the street to protest. Just don't go out there and shout

  • Hey, nicely made video of the local response to the West Point speech. Thanks for putting it up to share.
