Really? Were there any condemnations of the Iraqi government at the protests you went to? Any marches on the Iraqi embassy? Any demands to free political prisoners, stop the use of torture, hold free elections? No? I'll go one better - go look up International ANSWER and there position on Saddam and see if "pro-Saddam" isn't an accurate description of their beliefs. Since they were the chief organizers of the march... If conservatives marched in a rally organized by the KKK it would be a major news brief and everyone involved would be condemned as a racist, and rightfully so. Since the "war protesters" were marching in something organized by ANSWER, and (even mroe) showed no interest in or concern for the people of Iraq either before, or in fact during, the protests - well, if the shoe fits...
