Golly… what can we say in the face of such eloquence?

I mean, I COULD try to make an intelligent, coherent argument for takign action against Saddam, but hey, I must admit, I’m overwhelmed by the brilliance of their sloganeering.

I mean, calling G.W. Bush dumb… NOBODY’S ever thought of THAT before!

Oh, come on – like you could fit a coherent argument on a 2’x4’ piece of paper. That’s what the speakers are for; the signs are for wit and brevity.

I went to the peace rally in DC on Jan 18 – my favorite sign said, “WHY YOU GOTTA BE ALL VIOLENT?”

I ran off about $300 worth of photocopies for a guy who was organising a large group of upstate New Yorkers to go down to that rally.

A national newsfeed bit about the rally mentioned the contingent of NYers and I pointed at it and said “I know that guy!”

He was very polite. His friend, though, I don’t like running copies off for, because he keeps up a running commentary about “how much of an asshole George Bush is” while I’m working the machine.

No one else thought this was hilarious? I was sent this email at work and thought about starting a thread about it (didn’t, obviously). I laughed so hard at this one I could hardly breathe.
