Golly, more people who refuse to comprehend how the system actually works. Mofos (morons of the fourth order.)

Some group "Veterans for Peace."

The group has its origins in veterans of the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939), on the socialist side.

The "Abraham Lincoln Brigade" and all that; all these good American and British socialists fighting for the Communists in that conflict, and getting betrayed by Stalin.

Newsflash DUmmies, these meaningless pieces of paper will be shredded and tossed out with tomorrow's trash.

[Ralph Wiggum]

Again, I wish they would spell out exactly which multiple violations of the Constitution and war crimes they're talking about.

Oh yeah, they're just talking out of their ass as usual.

They scream about the Constitution but want it thrown out. A little cognitive dissonance.

More on the group HERE

Veterans For Peace (VFP) was founded July 8, 1985 in Maine as "a non-profit 501(c)3 educational and humanitarian organization dedicated to the abolishment of war." Its Statement of Purpose reads, "We, having dutifully served our nation do hereby affirm our greater responsibility to serve the cause of world peace and justice." VFP's avowed policy is "to restrain our [U.S.] government" from foreign wars, "to end the arms race and eventually eliminate nuclear weapons," and "to abolish war as an instrument of international policy."

The founders of VFP are Jerry Genesio (who served in the U.S. Marine Corps, 1956-62), his wife Judy Genesio, the Reverend Willard Bickett (U.S. Army, World War II), Doug Rawlings (U.S. Army, Vietnam) and Ken Perkins (U.S. Navy, Korea). They created VFP, says the organization's website, because they "were disturbed by the militancy of the United States and its violent intervention in the affairs of other nations."

<snip>

In 1989 VFP received an invitation from the Sandinista government “to serve as Official Observers during the February 1990 Nicaraguan elections.” The Sandinistas lost the election, after which VFP immediately ended all assistance to Nicaragua.
 
In 1990 VFP sent representatives to the 45th Anniversary of World War II Victory Day in the Soviet Union. VFP that year was given a permanent NGO seat at the United Nations. Throughout 1991, VFP chapters and members organized university teach-ins, town meetings, panel discussions, and Congressional postcard / call-in campaigns to voice opposition to the Gulf War.

In the post-Gulf War years, VFP was sympathetic to the plight of the Iraqi people, whose hardships it blamed on American policies rather than on the actions of Saddam Hussein. In 2000, VFP aided Saddam, providing assistance by way of water-treatment facilities to remedy a water-contamination problem that the group attributed to American-led sanctions against the Iraqi government.

<snip>

The current President of Veterans for Peace is David Cline, a decorated, disabled veteran of the Vietnam War, who is also the National Coordinator of Vietnam Veterans Against the War.

VFP is a member organization of the Win Without War, United for Peace and Justice, Abolition 2000, and After Downing Street anti-war coalitions.

So the "John Kerry Brigade" is back in force"

[RightCoast]

Attn DUmmies, the Secret Service urgently requests you deliver these important documents to the back fence of the WH, preferably at night without the company of any recording devices.

[Sonnabend]

I am curious just what crimes they have enumerated, as if there was any proof, there would have been charges. I find it curious that they have "proof" of "crimes" yet these documents are not in the hands of prosecutors who would leap at the chance to get the President.

Conclusion:they aint got jack shit.

That's okay, if the bimbo with the big pink gloves at the end of this Daily Show interview during the Berkeley Code Pink ho' down, the military doesn't have the same rights to free speech as us civilians anyway.
