U.S. military: The few,
the proud, the stupid

Cindy Sheehan has returned to Yasgur's Farm south, formerly Crawford,
Texas,
to continue the peace vigil and folk festival near Bush's ranch. Soon
she,
her supporters, and other media moths attracted by the TV lights will
embark
on a bus caravan to Washington, D.C., to continue to tell the world
exactly
how dumb U.S. soldiers are. That's right: Dumb. Brain dead. Morons.
Dopes.
The reason why they believe that the U.S. soldier is an empty-headed
dupe
isn't tough to figure out. Take Casey Sheehan for example. He joined
the
military on his own accord, willingly re-enlisted during this conflict,
and
fought and died for something he obviously believed in. Casey's mother
has
said he died "for nothing," and, therefore, the rest of them are dying
for
nothing, too.
To use the deaths of U.S. soldiers who joined willingly as an anti-war
statement is to discredit their beliefs and judgment, not to mention
their
intellect.
Still don't think the pro-peace crowd thinks the U.S. soldier is
stupid? How
about the protests by the group called Code Pink, so named because of
all
the Pepto Bismol you have to drink to keep them from turning your
stomach.
Code Pink members have been hanging around the Walter Reed Army
Hospital,
which houses many wounded soldiers, and waiving signs such as "Maimed
for
Lies" and "Enlist here and die for Halliburton." This sounds like a
bunch of
people who obviously respect the soldiers, doesn't it? You'd be hard
pressed
to find another group of people who are more abusive than those who
seek
peace for a living.
Adding fuel to the left's "they're so stupid" fire is the fact that,
not
only were these soldiers "maimed for lies" and "enlisted and died for
Halliburton," but they're also overwhelmingly pro-Bush. To the left,
the
U.S. soldier has discovered an entirely new level of dim-wittedness,
and one
deserving of the mockery taking place at the Walter Reed Army Hospital.
To
be led into an unjust war by a moron is one thing, but for those same
people
to vote for that moron in droves makes the military reprehensibly
imbecilic
in leftist eyes.
One would have to assume that taking under advisement the opinions of
those
who are actually placed in harm's way would take priority over the rest
of
us, since they have the most on the line. The anti-war left can't win
in
this category, so there's nothing they can do but to point out that
these
brave men and women simply don't know any better. This is why we've
heard
the word "children" thrown around so much lately. They aren't soldiers
-
they're kids who have been ordered to play on dangerous monkey bars by
a
sadistic school principal.
In the meantime, Yasgur's Farm south is attracting more weasels than an
open-air chicken coop. Last week, the Reverend Al Sharpton announced
that
the anti-war protest in Crawford, Texas, has finally gained the focus
of
enough TV cameras to satisfy the media coverage rider in Sharpton's
contract. Sharpton arrived in Crawford this past weekend, on the
anniversary
of Martin Luther King's "I have a dream" speech, to deliver his own
words,
which may go down in history as the "Vermin on the Mount."
In addition, groups such as MoveOn.org and True Majority are helping
finance
the base camp at Yasgur's Farm south, where the effort to point out
that
U.S. soldiers are the dumbest animals since prehistoric turkeys
continues.
True Majority is a group set up by Ben Cohen, of Ben & Jerry's Ice
Cream,
the company that displays a pretty exterior of socialist idealism, all
supported by the camouflaged joist of fierce right-wing capitalism.
Shhh ...
don't tell.
There's an unprecedented insult directed at the U.S. military occurring
here. The most disturbing part is that it was all kicked off by the
mother
of a soldier, who is now being puppeted by people who have her
convinced
that her son and everybody like him were too stupid to know that they
were
taking part in an illegal and immoral occupation.
Sheehan's bus caravan will be on the road around the same time Jane
Fonda's
bio-diesel '60's time machine hits the anti-war trail. Fonda has a
proven
history of supporting the troops - provided they're on the other side.
In the coming months, we can only hope that all the people who actually
support the troops, not to mention respect their intelligence and
beliefs,
can make more noise than those protesters to whom the only "just war"
would
be one that confronted a direct and immediate threat to their freedom
to be
ignorant.
