Anyone know if Kerry will take a part in the weeklong demonstration?

| Quote: | | ... a motley crew of antiwar groups, including Iraq Veterans Against The War, CODEPINK, ANSWER, and MoveOn.org, are organizing a week of demonstrations in Washington beginning September 15. The "mobilization" will be kicked off with a "Die-In," sponsored primarily by ANSWER and Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW). As they explain, "IVAW is asking that participants in the Die-In/Funeral select the name of one of the almost 4,000 soldiers who have been killed in Iraq. You can select a family member, friend or someone from your city, town or state. Please bring a photograph of that person and a sign with his/her name on September 15." Needless to say, the protesters who will be appropriating the names of soldiers and Marines killed in action have no intention of asking the permission of their families. But why should the families think their loved ones' sacrifices are being exploited in an unbelievably offensive way? After all, as one organizer explains, "The die-in will be led by an Honor Guard of Iraq Veterans Against the War who will simulate a 21-Gun Salute before taps is played to initiate the die-in." |

Does it never occur to these brainless moonbats that not everyone supports their insanity?

While sKerry monetarily supports ANSWER & MoveOn; It's very unlikely that he's going to let his ugly mug surface on the streets during any events that would leave him wide open once more for public scrutiny. Jane "Hanoi" Fonda is without a doubt, steering clear.
