Why, oh, why, oh, why are the organizers of today’s Washington, DC rally against the war in Iraq offering the podium to Jesse Jackson and Jane Fonda?
I guess it could have been worse: they could have invited Michael “N-word” Richards and the latest anti-Semite to crawl out of the closet, former civil rights leader and Ambassador to the UN, Andrew Young.
Now, if they’d gotten Charlton Heston, _that_ would have been a PR coup.
Off topic only slightly, I have been a Charlton Heston fan since watching that shameful, disrespectful interview by Michael Moore of the gracious, courtly, but obviously failing Mr. Heston in “Bowling for Columbine”.
As for the former Mrs. Turner: I met her at a friend’s home last fall. Ms. Fonda was unfriendly and standoffish, and allowed her dog to defecate on the host’s walkway.
