Peace through superior firepower.

Truth.

One poster here described the peace sign as the original coward chicken scratch or some such. That’s true, too. In the late 60s, the symbol was symbolic for anti-Nam, not just anti-war.

While it is inappropriate to discuss minor children of politicians, it is also inappropriate to use them politically, especially in an international venue. To be actively negotiating with the Russians on missile defense and Afghanistan at the same time your family members were parading around in peace signs would be analogous to negotiating with nazi-types in klan robes/getups—or, showing yourself with soles of your shoes when talking to Netanyahu (not that anyone would do that, of course).

It is not improper to discuss children of politicians.
It is improper and despicable to ridicule and lie about children of politicians, especially underage children. Say for example the Palin children. If the Obama children had been treated as such, people would have lost jobs. The state-run media would have torn them apart.
Instead the state-run media protect the One and his from even true news, and propagate the hate against the Palins.

Peace symbol = “The footprint of the American chicken.”
