Only the Chronicle could describe protests that it supports in San Francisco as going nude is being creative.

"Do I support the war? No," Michael said a few steps away. "But this (vigil) isn't going to change my mind. Or anybody else's. It's Berkeley. There's always somebody opening their mouth and handing you something."

Or opening their mouth for a handout.

Sounds like this guy at least has a wisp of sense.

Wouldn't the weather be a little Nippley this time of year for a bare-bimbo-fest?

America is overrun with angry, white females. They're ruining the country with their ol' girl networks. How do these rich, suburban housewives expect to be taken seriously? Where is the diversity: women of color? Their voices are excluded, thereby rendering this peace protest illegitimate and invalid. *I crack myself up sometimes*
