The "weapons inspectors" from France and Germany and elsewhere trooped up to the Edgewood area of Aberdeen Proving Grounds this morning to "inspect" the chemical and biological weapons that were produced there and are being destroyed there.
Some background: Over the past several years, there has been a substantial effort on the part of the U.S. Army to incinerate chemical weapons such as mustard gas. Also, due to 9-1-1, this is now a closed post. Unless one has a DoD ID badge, one does not get in the front gate.
I arrived on site about 9:30 AM. I went and talked with the guards at the front gate. I was told no protesting on Federal property and that extends to the bridge on Rte. 24.
I indicated that I understood and set up on the other side of the bridge away from the post's front gate.
Doctor Raoul showed up shortly thereafter and we had several signs that we used for the traffic flowing in and out of EA APG. "If Osama was a piece of ass, Clinton would have nailed him"; "We gave peace a chance, we got 9-1-1", "First Iraq, Then France", "The only gas around here is coming out of your leaders' mouths"; and "Why aren't you in Iraq?"
The "Weapons inspectors" were late (they were supposed to show up at 10:30) and arrived in a convoy of cars. Doctor Raoul and I shouted at them to go home. I saw one car that had a Clinton/Gore sticker on it. Most of the occupants looked like Dupont Circle (sorry FTH) older yuppie types. I guess they look European.
Raoul and I heckled them for a while. Raoul had a bullhorn (I didn't need one ;-) and told them "genocidal dictators go home!"
I repeated chants of "Free Iraq Now" and "You'd better hurry up, the West Wing is on!"
Well, that's pretty much it. The "weapons inspectors" weren't gonna get in the front gate and we knew that.

If the Powell evidence made anything plain, it's this: The idea of "monitoring" a dictator is ludicrous. Saddam is quite happy to participate for another decade or two in an eternal ongoing U.N. field study of dictatorship MARK STEYN, JUST LIKE MONICA. |
The Powell evidence was, in fact, superfluous. For anyone capable of critical thinking, the absurdity of the task was self-evident. What the Powell evidence did make plain, however, was this:
- the Democrats systematically and reflexively put their perpetual grasp for power over America's national security
- the Democrats are unfit to lead, especially in a post-9/11 world
- the clintons were utter failures and are America's biggest blunder.

- IT IS OBVIOUS (NOTE: Written 8 months before the Democrat Debacle of '02)
- By Mia T, 3-3-02
It is obvious to anyone who bothers to remove his political blinders. It is so patently obvious that even those whose political blinders are a permanently fixed fashion statement -- that is to say, even Hollywood -- can see it. (Just ask Whoopie Goldberg...or Rosie O'Donnell...) Bush's poll numbers are a reflection of this self-evident truth. What is manifestly obvious and confirmed on a daily basis is the plain fact that Democrats are, by definition, constitutionally unfit to navigate the ship of state through these troubled, terrorist waters. Democrats were unfit pre-9/11, but few could see it then. It was 9/11 and its aftermath that made this truth crystal clear even to the most simpleminded among us. The unwashed masses, the uninformed, the disinformed can see it now. All America can see it now. Self-preservation is kicking in, trumping petty politics at every turn. And this is why Democrat demagoguery and stupidity and sedition are achieving new lows... We are witnessing the last gasp of a political relic. The Democrat party is not merely obsolete. As 9/11 and clinton-clinton-Daschle action and inaction have demonstrated, the Democrat party is very dangerous. We must now make sure that this fact, too, is obvious to all... |

L.A Times, Clinton Let Bin Laden Slip Away and Metastasize -

GEORGE WILL, Sleaze, the sequel
-
Had George Will written Sleaze, the sequel (the "sequel" is, of course, hillary) after 9-11-01, I suspect that he would have had to forgo the above conceit, as the doubt expressed in the setup phrase was, from that day forward, no longer operational. Indeed, assessing the clinton presidency an abject failure is not inconsistent with commentary coming from the left, most recently the LA Times: "Clinton Let Bin Laden Slip Away and Metastasize."
When the clintons left office, I predicted that the country would eventually learn--sadly, the hard way--that this depraved, self-absorbed and inept pair had placed America (and the world) in mortal danger. But I was thinking years, not months. It is very significant that hillary clinton didn't deny clinton culpability for the terrorism. (Meet the Press, 12-09-01), notwithstanding tired tactics (if you can't pass the buck, spread the blame) and chronic "KnowNothing Victim Clinton" self-exclusion. If leftist pandering keeps the disenfranchized down in perpetuity, clinton pandering,("it's the economy, stupid"), kept the middle and upper classes wilfully ignorant for eight years. And ironically, both results (leftist social policy and the clinton economy) are equally illusory, fraudulent. It is becoming increasingly clear that clinton covertly cooked the books even as he assiduously avoided essential actions that would have negatively impacted the economy--the ultimate source of his continued power--actions like, say, going after the terrorists. It is critically important that hillary clinton fail in her grasp for power; read Peggy Noonan's little book, 'The Case Against Hillary Clinton' and Barbara Olson's two books; it is critical that the West de-clintonize, but that will be automatic once it is understood that the clintons risked civilization itself in order to gain and retain power. It shouldn't take books, however, to see that a leader is a dangerous, self-absorbed sicko. People should be able to figure that out for themselves. The electorate must be taught to think, to reason. It must be able to spot spin, especially in this age of the electronic demagogue. I am not hopeful. As Bertrand Russell noted, "Most people would sooner die than think; in fact, they do so. "

*George Will continues: There is reason to believe that he is a rapist ("You better get some ice on that," Juanita Broaddrick says he told her concerning her bit lip), and that he bombed a country to distract attention from legal difficulties arising from his glandular life, and that. ... Furthermore, the bargain that he and his wife call a marriage refutes the axiom that opposites attract. Rather, she, as much as he perhaps even more so, incarnates Clintonism

Great speech by Curtis Sliwa. Not too much of the great unwashed. Have some great footage walking thru NYC and seeing the hordes of the great unwashed.
Done on hi-8 camcorder tape. Can dump it to vhs.
Working on assembling a video editing computer w/ l_von_mises to be able to dump directly to CD.

Here is an article from the Washington Post:
Here
From the article:
The response was not exactly a snappy salute. Facing a driving rain, two counter-protesters who compared the activists to Saddam Hussein and grim-faced military policemen ordering them to cease and desist, the group was forced to turn around about 30 yards from the entrance to the Edgewood Area of Aberdeen Proving Ground.
In a caravan of cars and minivans, they met at a Texaco station near the base before heading down a two-lane road leading to the facility. Two men along the road yelled at them through bullhorns and held up signs such as "Why aren't you in Iraq?" and "We gave peace a chance; we got 9/11."

Here is a little tidbit from IndyMedia's website after the Post article (that they placed in its entirety on their website BTW). They offer a place to put comments. Only one exists and it follows here:

U.S. Army makes protesters look stupid by Mr. Helpful
12:43pm Mon Feb 24 '03
Protesters travel from thousands of miles, go to Army base, asked to be admitted, are politely rebuffed, go home.
Washington Post writes mildly mocking article.
Way to go, guys.
No sarcasm there!
To: sauropod
Aw, man, I wish I had known you guys were going to be there. I would have brought hot chocolate and more signs.
