Dear TSO,<\/p>\n

WE DID IT!!! Let us repeat: WE DID IT!<\/p>\n

We joined together, in a wonderful, resolute outpouring of democracy. We stood toe-to-toe with Wall Street and their lackeys in Congress, and defeated them. Amazing what can happen when the people stand up!<\/p>\n

In Washington DC, as CODEPINK staged a “die-in” on the steps of the Capitol to say “Bailout? Over my dead body,” Cong. Carolyn Kilpatrick gave us a big hug and said, “It’s thanks to you that the bill is better than it was, and it’s thanks to you that the next bill will be better than this one. Keep it up.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I know what some of you are saying: What in the Holy Name of Spongebob’s ghost does this have to do with “a women-initiated grassroots peace and social justice movement working to end the war in Iraq, stop new wars, and redirect our resources into healthcare, education and other life-affirming activities”?<\/p>\n

[What follows may not make sense to you.\u00a0 If so, move along, this isn’t the post you are looking for.]<\/p>\n

Ladies and Gentlemen of this supposed blog, Code Pink’s accusers would certainly want you to believe my that they only deal with issues regarding the War and peace activism, and they make a good case. Hell, I almost felt pity myself. But Ladies and Gentlemen of this supposed blog, I have one final thing I want you to consider.<\/p>\n

Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Chewbacca. Chewbacca is a Wookiee from the planet Kashyyyk, but Chewbacca lives on the planet Endor. Now think about it. That does not make sense. Why would a Wookiee, an eight-foot-tall Wookiee, want to live on Endor with a bunch of two-foot-tall Ewoks. That does not make sense.<\/p>\n

But more important, you have to ask yourself what does this have to do with this case. Nothing. Ladies and Gentlemen, it has nothing to do with this case. It does not make sense. Look at me. I’m a lawyer defending a major peace movement and I’m talkin’ about Chewbacca. Does that make sense? Ladies and Gentlemen I am not making any sense. None of this makes sense.<\/p>\n

And so you have to remember when you’re reading this blog and deliberating and conjugating the Emancipation Proclamation, does it make sense? No. Ladies and Gentlemen of this supposed blog it does not make sense. If Chewbacca lives on Endor you must accept that Code Pink has a vested interest and reason for doing Die Ins on the Capitol steps.<\/p>\n

Look at this Wookie.<\/p>\n
