On the subject of demonstrations, is there any chance we'll ever see protests of the Swift boat liars? I'd love to (peacefully) hector them. Here's the page where the liars list their upcoming TV and radio appearances. I don't know why these appearances aren't routinely met by dozens of protesters -- ideally including a lot of veterans.

Protests of these guys would be pointed, and also surprising. The message could be clear and easily absorbed: These are Bush's liars, being given multiple megaphones by the media.

The Swift boat guys look scummier every day. Here's the basic case against them; here's a great Daily Howler column on appallingly underreported information that further demolishes their case; here's yet another sign of their loathsomeness from Atrios. Read that -- then, if you still need motivation, subject yourself to the arrogance of this.
