Aw, c’mon, give peace a chance

You know the old song, “Where have all the flowers gone?”
What I want to know is, where have all the moonbats gone?
The preposterous president these clueless trustafarians elected has now started a war with no congressional authorization and exactly one resolution from the United Nations. George Bush got 17 U.N. resolutions before invading Iraq and the limousine liberals sneered that it was a “rush to war.”
So where are all the candlelight vigils?
Whatever happened to “War is Not the Answer?” Does this “unilateral action” make Barack Obama a, gulp, “cowboy?” Is a village missing its idiot?
When George Bush started a war, the squirrelly hippies from Cambridge couldn’t wait to start rioting in front of the JFK Building. They’ve had a week now to get their new bumper stickers printed up. Stop Obama’s Endless Wars. Obama Lies, Libyans Die.
Where in Hollywood is this year’s “Not in My Name” anti-war petition circulating?
What happened to the Boston and Cambridge City Councils with their resolutions demanding that the president be tried in The Hague as a war criminal?
Where are the human shields, dammit?
Whatever happened to Code Pink?
When will Gen. Colin Powell appear on TV to say ominously of Libya, “If you break it, you bought it.”
When George Bush was president, every People’s Republic in New England had a hard-core group of wrinkly haters who would gather weekly on the town common, or in front of the courthouse, holding “No Blood for Oil” signs.
Where have all the moonbats gone? Who knew there was a Witness Protection Program for the MIA Birkenstock crowd? I’ve even got a new chant for them: “Hey hey, ho ho, Barack the war criminal’s got to go!”
Will Cindy Sheehan take the ferry to Martha’s Vineyard this summer to protest Barack on one of his many vacations, which the lickspittles in the media now invariably refer to as “working vacations”?
Will Comrade Chris Matthews call Obama what he always used to call Bush and Cheney? You know, “chickenhawk.”Remember Abu Ghraib? The
New York Times [NYT] went crazy over “war crimes.”
Now there are thousands of photos of a handful of U.S. troops in Afghanistan posing with “trophy” bodies of civilians. But all the Times has to say is, nothing to see here, folks. Move along.
Here’s a bumper sticker you’ll never see in Brookline: “Nobody died at Abu Ghraib.”
