#1 Oh I hope I hope I hope I hope I hope PJ O'Rourke gets some space in Rolling Stone, or anywhere, in fact, to address this issue.

Hey! Maybe we can get Peace Action wound up to protest Kunicich's Peace University, which University would pretty much be a government institution. My gosh - the best possible fitting of protest to target ever made!

#2 "The message that we're concentrating on now is that Iraq needs to be for the Iraqis and, as soon as possible, the United States should withdraw,"

Thanks for restating the government's position.

organizers were hashing out "whether Win Without War should continue..."

#4 "We believe that the U.S. must withdraw from the Middle East," she said.

Interesting. Wasn't that Osama's jihadi platform?

#5 I personally do not have a problem with the people in the "Peace Movement" that are consistant. The ones that oppose all violence and war. You the two or three that would of demonstrated against Saddam or Milosevich. As is they only time they care is if the US is involved

#7 Highlarryous!

Bye-bye Sister Alice Gestapo. See ya Scott LynchIraqis.

It's also great to see the incredibly self-righteous American Friends Service Committee "paused." Maybe they'll take a moment to reflect on how they supported a mass murderer with their peace-at-any-price mentality.

The "peace movement" died on March 28. That was when the San Francisco cops found molotov cocktails in a backpack. After that, the demonstrators were never able to organize more than a few hundred die-hards here. And they'll protest ANYTHING in San Francisco.
