During the week of May 2 - 9, the sad remnants of the "peace" (i.e., "appeasement") movement are hoping to make a media splash by holding an event called "A Funeral for Democracy" on college campuses. The sponsor is an alleged "student" group called the Student Peace Action Network (SPAN), which appears to be a front for commie sympathizers (see Michael Tremoglie's article at http://www.frontpagemag.com/Articles/ReadArticle.asp?ID=5039). The "Funeral" arrangements can be examined at http://www.studentpeaceaction.org/act.html.
In my humble opinion, this event may present a wonderful opportunity for freedom-loving folks to turn the left's silly message upside down and to speak the truth. I have in mind something along the lines of what the "Protest Warriors" have done in San Francisco, infiltrating the appeasement marches with messages that show the absurdity of left-wing slogans. (See http://www.protestwarrior.com for details. Maybe we could stage our own "Funeral" for "the Left", "Totalitarianism", "Fellow Travelers", etc.
It would be great to do something simultaneously at various locations around the country. I personally would love to do something right here "behind enemy lines" in the middle of Harvard Square! Let me know if you would like to join the festivities.
...and here my day was going bad, until I read your humor. Thanx for the memories.
