ANSWER and their attendant allies are planning their annual (well, except last year) March on the Pentagon trying to recreate their hey-day of the sixties. The list of participant organization reads like the index of Discover the Networks;
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Vets for Peace, IVAW, World Can’t Wait, Cindy Sheehan, Ron Kovic, the rotting corpse of Ramsey Clark, Edward Jabba the Asner – a regular Who’s Who of irrelevant hippie trash with juvenile opinions. The complete list is here<\/a>. I hope the temperature doesn’t drop a few degrees – that was their excuse for poor attendance in 2007 when they were out numbered by Gathering of Eagles<\/a>. <\/p>\n

So, why, in the Age of Obama are they planning on marching? ANSWER’s website says;
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

President Obama decided to keep the Pentagon just as it was under Bush. He even selected Bush appointee Robert Gates to keep his position as chief of the Pentagon. Gates announced that the new administration would double the number of troops sent to Afghanistan. That is certainly not the \u201cchange\u201d most people thought was coming following the end of Bush\u2019s tenure.<\/p>\n

These are wars for domination in the Middle East and Central Asia. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Why would the US want to dominate these shit holes? Oil? Why would we want to go through the trouble of fighting and then administering foreign people when we have enough oil to sustain us for decades in our own country that we won’t touch? Seems it’d be easier to dominate some pussy-assed shiftless hippies in the environmental movement than some bomb throwing Stone Age tribes of the Middle East.<\/p>\n

No matter who is in charge in this country, there’s a vocal element who will never be happy. Even if we returned to the Stone Age in this country and live in caves rubbing sticks together for fire, they’ll still find something to complain about – well, if they survive without being eaten by the rest of us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
