Some interesting critiques of our group from supporters and detractors:

"OK, I laughed. So did you. Sadly, these folks were the exception rather than the rule." -Annabunny (10.03)

"Goo Goo Dolls Fans For Peace?!? Annabunny has a fine, fine roundup of the Saddam-supporter protests in DC this past weekend. It appears that the old-skool-Stalinist protesters have lost their grip on reality completely at this point." -Mike (10.03)

"The oddest sign I saw at the protest was: "Goo Goo Dolls fans for Peace!" which I later found an explanation for. As it turned out I got free tickets to a concert for Bon Jovi (please, no heckling, I've had enough to deal with) and the Goo Goo Dolls were the opening act. I found out the Dolls have come out strongly against the war and have been making statements via their concerts and website about the war. I thought it was an interesting coincidence between the sign and my going to the concert." -Bolowolf (3.03)
