[...] Hot Air has a pretty funny post which shows a video mocking outspoken protestors who think that it is a good idea to advance their agenda by yelling loudly on cameras. This type of political discourse purported by Code Pink and some of Ron Paul’s more loathsome supporters will hopefully come to an end. This sort of thing was common in the 1960s (at least from what I hear) with examples such as the Yippies shouting things at the 1968 DNC protest in Chicago like “’We will burn Chicago to the ground!’ ‘We will f*** on the beaches!’ ‘We demand the Politics of Ecstasy!’ ‘Acid for all!’”. I’m thankful for the internet’s existence merely because such ridiculous groups can be brought to light, discussed, and ultimately discredited. The internet and blogosphere provides a voice for these people, but like a double-edged sword, they can be easily dismissed as buffoons. If the internet wasn’t around, there would be no way I could hear about these groups while out in Iraq. I think it’s important to keep myself apprised of the political situation back on the homefront, at least in my spare time. Bookmark to: [...]

This is the kind of stuff we’ve been missing out on for the past few months. Producers, give them what they want and get them back to work.

Haven’t heard much coming from Code Pinko lately, wonder where they’ve been. Did the Hill Police finally learn their lesson and ban them?

It’s disturbing that Bush and his rich cronies are paying people to ridicule and thus try to silence those who are speaking Truth To Power and wake people up to the corporatist union-busting war machine.

This was priceless.

Maybe they should keep this video handy for anytime they have to arrest one of these weirdos who actually do this. They can stick one of these protestering nuts in an interogation room with a monitor and they can play it over and over, explaining that “this is what people are really thinking when you guys do this”. Maybe after a few hundred times of going over it, these idiots would get through their thick, self-absorbed skulls.

Then again, maybe not and it would be a waste big of time.
