A small handful of anti-war nuts came to downtown Chicago the other day and Chicago News Bench did the foot work to cover it all. Tom Mannis of CNB also has a great slide show of the freaks, geeks, wackos and communists that showed for the thing. And when I say communists, I mean it, I’m not just name-calling here. There were actual, self-avowed communists and socialists at this thing.
I am amused at the hypocrisy of the anti-war “movement,” these days, though. When it was the eeeeeevil Bushies in power they were having these parades of human detritus every other weekend in Chicago but now that their messiah Obama is in office this is the first one they’ve bothered with since inauguration day!
What does that mean? It means that being “anti-war” is NOT their goal. Being anti-George Bush was their ONLY goal. They couldn’t really care less about any war. All they cared about was getting rid of G.W. Bush.
Anyway, head on over to Chicago News Bench and laugh at the comedy that is the anti-war “movement.”
