Anti-war movement a caricature of itself

Wait a minute. ANSWER organizes many anti-war rallies yet you characterize them as a very small fraction of the anti-war movement. Perhaps it is you who are being disingenuous for although true they represent a small fraction of those who oppose the war, they seem to be quite representative of those who fervently oppose the war, after all they are ORGANIZING the rallies Quads.

This thread seems a little odd but... the people organizing a rally does not have to be representative of the people attending.

A group of 50 people people can organize a rally attended by 1000's. The organizing group can have many different agendas and goals then the people who show up specificially for that rally.

For instance: Let's say there is a socialist group of 100 people that oppose the war. And there are another 500,000 people unrelated to the socialist group who also oppose the war. They all come together at a war rally organized by the socialist group. Only an idiot would say that the 500,100 people are all socialists.
