My grilled animals didn't taste quite as good when I read this:

Other supporters, including Penn, Sarandon, novelist Alice Walker and actor Danny Glover will join a 'rolling" fast, a relay in which 2,700 activists pledge to refuse food for at least 24 hours, and then hand over to a comrade.

But they still tasted pretty good.

Aren't these people pathetic? They call us chickenhawks, but they can't even be bothered to go hungry for more than one day to defend their so-called principles. Are they really so daft as to imagine that anyone will care about this "sacrifice"?

Don't answer that question.

You know, I hadn't done the math before, but this makes it even funnier. With 2700 people at one "strike" (read: too busy to eat for a few hours) per person per day, this could go on for almost a decade. Yes, I'm sure it will be front-page news every day...

It is pathetic; but also on another level it is as funny a thing as I've heard of lately.

It is also one more data point chalked up by liberals confirming to me that I am correct in my low estimation of those who are of that particular politic leaning.

I know just the thing for these folks to eat at the end of their rolling fast: Snickers!

Y'know, as much as I want there to be some form of decent opposition to the idiocy that is the foreign policy of the Bush administration well....this sure as hell ain't it.

But then you expect leadership from Celebrities? I particularly like the "experts" saying that these protests don't see to have much impact. D'ya think? I wonder why?!
