Beyond Idiocy
The 21st century Marx Brothers, the Green party, held a rally Sunday calling for an end to the Iraq war.My first reaction to that statement was puzzlement. The war is basically over, we've now handed over control to the Iraqis, ...I wasn't sure what they meant. They couldn't actually mean that they want us to simply abandon Iraq ...?
Yep. They are calling for, "the immediate withdrawal of American troops from Iraq, saying it could be completed in five weeks."
So, why would they call for us to abandon Iraq? Concern for our troops? Nope. Here's why:
(the crowd) was dotted with protest puppets, caricatures of President Bush, Palestinian flags and signs with provocative language.
"These colors don't run the world," said one, with an image of the American flag.
Another called for "Victory to the Iraqi resistance."
I know what you're thinking, that's just one nut's opinion, right? Wrong. When given the chance to renounce that purely evil sentiment among his supporters, David Cobb, the Green party Presidential nominee refused, saying, he could not renounce the last sentiment because he didn't know exactly what it meant.
Telling, no?
