Thank You, Fred Mattlage!

Now here's a REAL nice guy!

One of President Bush's neighbors will allow use of his land by dozens of war protesters who have camped in roadside ditches the past 11 days, giving them more room and halving their distance from Bush's ranch.

Fred Mattlage, an Army veteran, said he sympathizes with the demonstrators whose makeshift camp off the winding, two-lane road leading to Bush's ranch has angered most residents. Mattlage said the group will be safer on his corner 1-acre lot.

"I just think people should have a right to protest without being harassed," Mattlage told The Associated Press on Tuesday night. "And I'm against the war. I don't think it's a war we need to be in."

That's a very kind gesture. It's nice to know that people are looking out for other people's safety, because you never know when some weirdo could come along with a big pipe chained to their pickup truck.

Peace to you and yours Moxiegrrrl. Fred is probably a relative of the neighbor w/the gun who sounded off a few days ago. He said he was shooting doves. I don't think it was by chance that he chose "doves". They both hace the same last name. yf Human

Yes Human, as I understand it, he IS a relative of that dude with the shotgun who declared that he was getting ready for "dove season". No, it was not by chance.

At least this Fred guy is cool. I would be awfully nervous if people were just showing up blasting shotguns everywhere.

Need I even point out that Mr. Mattlage is a veteran, while most of the politicians and pundits who are so hot to trot for the neocon-artists' splendid little war managed to avoid service in the Armed Forces?---MftI

Apparently, Monster, because they need things spelled out for them like small children. Not like they'll listen or anything, they are too busy looking at the pretty stuff that fell in the sand.
