Anti-American July 4th?

Tweet

Hey check this out. July 4th in San Francisco. So many things to do!After attending the AK Press "F++k the Fourth" party as a pre-holiday warm-up, I was hungry for some more Independence Day patriotism -- San Francisco style. I was tempted at first by a public event celebrating the "impending fall of the American Empire" where partiers could learn "flag burning techniques" while cheering on '70s-era proto-terrorists during a guerrilla screening of the documentary film The Weather Underground. Nice!And as an opening act, in the very same park, I could attend the premiere performance of the San Francisco Mime Troupe's new play "Making a Killing", a delicious wish-fact fantasy about "a cabal of military-industrial-Neo-Con colluders" who trick the US into invading Iraq so they can make money. Starring D++k Cheney, Condoleezza Rice, and the whole gang (and I do mean gang). But I faced a terrible scheduling conflict -- the day was so crowded with anti-American July 4th events that if I went to those two celebrations I'd end up missing the Propaganda III art show and the Act Against Torture Guantanamo street theater. A dilemma! What's a progressive to do?I flipped a coin and it came up heads -- which meant it was the propaganda art show for me!" http://www.zombietime.com/anti-july_4th_sf/ So how about you are any of you up to going to an Anti-American Propaganda art festival like this any time soon? Perhaps we will be blessed to be able to view this mindblowing"art" in our local museums so children on field trips can see how rotten and evil our country is. I don't know about you but this outrages me and scares me a lot. What's next? Where does it end? Look how they reacted over the Danish cartoons! Words from the Pope. They burn our flag, chant "Death to America"! What can be done to stop evil cults that hide behind religion? We took God out of our schools and public places and are now trying to remove the 10 commandments from our courthouses. I guess we would rather send our sons off with a bomb staped on their back rather than have him join the service to fight for freedom. I guess we would rather have Qurans carved in marble and statues of Muhammad than the crappy old 10 commandments and Abraham Lincoln. Who "walked softly but carried a big stick." in case you forgot. The real reason we can't have the Ten Commandments posted in our courthouses is because you can't post "Thou Shall Not Commit Adultery' and 'Thou Shall Not Lie" in a building full of lawyers, judges and politicians. It creates a hostile work environment. Do you feel politically correct about freedom hating festivals like this? myLot thinks D++k Cheney is a cuss word!
