Old Hippies
If there's is anything that sticks in my craw, it is balding hippies, wearing shorts and holding placards. They all probably make more than I do as well, but that is an entirely different blog.
Charles over at http://www.littlegreenfootballs.com has a knack for finding complete wingnut, "Better Red than Dead" type propaganda. Given, he lives in California, which gives him a unique vantage point over all of us in flyover country.
Here's the latest he found: http://www.forusa.org/programs/iraq/iraqphotoproject/iraq-photoproject-statement.html
It's some kind of wacko mission statement, but if you hit the link, there are about 200 pictures of old, washed-up, "the Vietnam war surrender meant the end of any meaning to my life," Ray-ban wearing, sandal-sporting, ugly hippies holding stupid signs. This is wallpaper material for me for the next 10 years.
These people are ridiculous. I don't know if I've mentioned it on this blog before, but, in my opinion, the proper response to 9/11 was killing a lot of people. Killing a lot more people than we have.
Old hippies, young hippies, and old hippies who were once young hippies would have licked Communist boot, given half the chance. And that's the generation that's running the government now.
Check out the site and envision John Kerry holding one of those signs. It is remarkably easy to do.
UPDATE: Tim Blair has gotten a hold on this one: http://timblair.spleenville.com/archives/007772.php
