Idiots on Parade


Found this article about some protesters outside an arena where Michael Moore was speaking. No, they weren't protesting Michael Moore... they were protesting President Bush. (hmmm... isn't the point of a protest to raise awareness and influence people? And isn't what they did kind of like preaching to the choir?) Anyway, this article shows just how desperately some of these people need a ClueBat™ upside the head in a bad way.

Tempe, Ariz. (CNSNews.com) - An anti-war protestor and homeless rights advocate bragged on Wednesday about how he had recently been arrested for making a bomb threat in Tempe.

"I just did a fake bomb threat with the Tempe Police Department three days ago," John Cross claimed to CNSNews.com outside the arena where left-wing filmmaker Michael Moore was appearing.

"[The bomb threat] was a protest of how they treat the homeless and less fortunate and how Bush is cutting down on all the social services," Cross said. "I didn't mean to scare anyone, I just wanted to shake them up so they that they could think a little bit," he said.


Shake them up? Get them to think a bit? Yeah, they’re thinking. They’re thinking that you’re a freak!

Cross said police "sent me to the mental ward" for making the bomb threat.[ya think? why didn’t they leave him there?-ed.] He also said his family has disowned him because of his drug abuse and radical activism. "Because I partake in smoking marijuana, [my family] believes that I am a drug addict, and they all tell me that I am a drug addict and they are not friends with drug addicts, Cross said.


Sorry, John, but I think they’re just trying to spare your feelings. They really disowned you because you’re an idiot and they don’t want you to be associated in any way with their gene pool.

Cross praised Michael Moore as "a great guy" with "great ideas," and said he hoped to meet him. "He has really inspired me a lot. Michael Moore is on a righteous path," he added.


A righteous path? Moore-on wouldn’t know a righteous path if it bit him. He’s a money-grubbing lying opportunist who would probably sell his mother for a box of Krispy Kreme doughnuts.

Other protestors on hand for the third and final presidential debate between President Bush and Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry focused most of their ire on Bush and the Iraq war.

Peter Goldammer wore a T-shirt with a likeness of Bush that read, "He is not my president."

Well, Pete, it’s a good thing he doesn’t agree with you.

"He cheated in the election, so technically he is not anybody else's president either," said Goldammer outside the debate site at University of Arizona. "He has pretty much done nothing good, basically done nothing in general. Starting a war on the basis of lies is pretty pathetic. He represents us as a country and he is not doing [a] good job at all," he added.


Nope. He’s done nothing at all. Leading the coalition that has freed 50 million people is nothing. Really.

Lauren McKinney, a student at University of Arizona, said she was out to show her support for Kerry and to support the continuation of legal abortions in the U.S. "I think [abortion is] really important because there is a lot of unwanted pregnancies and I don't think kids deserve to grow up that way," McKinney told CNSNews.com.


So, what you’re saying is that these children, who did nothing wrong, don’t deserve to grow up at all because two grown-ups couldn’t keep their pants zipped, or when that didn’t work, wouldn’t do the right thing and take responsibility for their actions. Lovely.

But McKinney did lament that Bush has the support of the "majority of women" that she knows. "The women that I talk to are definitely going to vote for Bush but it can go either way," she said.


That’s because most women are more intelligent than you, Lauren.

Kevin Keene, another protester at the debate, slammed Bush over the war in Iraq. "The Bush agenda is basically a military agenda making money for Halliburton, for the oil interests, and that's what we're against -- people making money off the slaughter of innocent people," Keene said.


Can these people not come up with any new arguments? Halliburton is so… 4 years ago. No one complained when Clinton’s Administration gave Halliburton a no-bid contract- it’s only when a Republican does it that they question their motives. And, if we went to war for oil, why does it cost me $30 to fill up at the pump? Oh, yeah, one more thing, Hussein was the one making money off the slaughter of innocent people- or are you saying that the mass graves in Iraq are pure fabrication?

"America has done that throughout its history with the Cold War and it's an agenda of fear and scare in order to build up these military regimes basically," he added.


That’s some quality stuff this guy is smoking. Military regime? I didn’t know we were installing puppet governments. I didn’t know we made a habit of that. Oh, wait! I know- he’s confusing us with the Soviet Union. But, no, that can’t be right- he probably thought it was a good idea when THEY did it.



If you take the time to look, you’ll find that the Left’s protesters tend to be… eccentric… uninformed… paranoid… selfish even. It’s easy to mock them- they practically do it themselves. But you almost feel sorry for them- many have been duped and brainwashed by the Elite Left who want nothing more than to advance their very flawed ideology. Do you really think that the Average Joe protesting the war in Iraq knows the details? Or the woman who rallies for women’s rights- do you think she realizes that there is no Constitutional right to abortion? (The right cited is the right to privacy, not some ambiguous “women’s rights”. Are there “men’s rights”, too?) The Left uses emotional triggers to rally the sheeple to their cause. The Right counters with fact and logic. Unfortunately, logic can’t break through the fog when emotions run high.
