This was quoted from a blog maintained by 2nd lt Lance Frizell of the Tennessee National Guard serving in Iraq.
_________
Wanted: Human Shields

Back in January '03 you may remember a group of Western Liberals who volunteered to go to Iraq as human shields in case the US enforced UN Resolutions that Saddam violated.

"...they are willing to put themselves in the firing line should US and British forces bomb Iraq. They plan to identify potential bombing targets such as power stations and bridges and act as human shields to protect them."

Well, I think I have just the job for these globe-travelers: Iraq Election Poll Worker. They are familiar with the terrain and people, they have a self-professed desire to help and they seem very articulate. However, their biggest asset is bravery. If they are willing to hunker down between Coalition Forces and a bridge, standing between a foreign terrorist and a polling precinct should be no big deal. Any takers?

Somehow I don't think Michael Moore and his ilk, including Hollywood stars and wannabe stars will take him up on that offer.

Seems that they are all talk and no action...so what else is new?

Actually, he was at the inaugural mouthing-off with a bunch of demonstrators. As Saddam's official defense attorney, it looks like he's goofing off.

Unless you are old enough to remember it, it is hard to believe this clown was actually the chief law enforcement officer of the USA. I remember it, and it still doesn't make sense.

And the liberals think Ashcroft is extreme! Ramsey Clark ought to be
ashamed of himself to be helping defend the former leader of a country
with which the US is at war. He actions dishonor the office of Attorney
General of the US and should get him tried as a traitor.
