Sticks and Stones may Break My Bones....

I was thinking of this nonsense about General Betray-Us today. Apparently, the BRAVE Congress, with the help of 21 concerned Democrats, passed a resolution denouncing MoveOn.org for calling the poor General an name. How horrible. General Betray-Us. I'm not a big MoveOn fan, I'll admit it. I think they've become the most public face of the anti-war movement in the US, mostly because they are no real threat, so CNN feels "safe" talking about them. the government generally doesn't worry about them. Unless they call people names. How naughty. But the cowardly Congress can only denounce MoveOn for "words" while gutlessly ignoring "the sticks and stones" flying about in Iraq and Afghanistan. Oh, and the "broken bones" of so many people. While they talk, eat power lunches at our expense, very real sticks and stones are bringing untold horrors to people around the world.

Not to mention our needs here in the "homeland" -- like healthcare, for instance? Like -- don't they have anything better to do? I'm so sick of the whole lot of them!
