Recreate ‘68
Since I have a bunch of friends and family in Colorado, this one is especially for them. (Oh and BTW, your state is full of loonies. Starting with my brother (tee hee)….kidding…okay, seriously.)
Remember Ward Churchill? The Boulder (CU) prof who called the victims of 9-11 “little Ikemans”? Well, his buddy is on the prowl…Glenn Spagnuolo is leading up this lovely little organization called “Recreate ‘68″ to cause mayhem and madness. I have highlighted the important points for you….
(Oh and FYI, for those of you who don’t know….Recreate ‘68…what is that? Well, Re-create 68 is an organization led up by Spagnuolo that has “promised demonstrations that will rival those at the bloody 1968 Democratic convention in Chicago – and will be at Civic Center on Aug. 24, with or without a permit,” according to Spagnuolo.
War protesters promised a massive conflict at Civic Center on the eve of the 2008 Democratic National Convention, after losing in a lottery process Thursday that awarded a permit for the park to the party planner for Denver’s host committee.
“We’re having our protest at Civic Center,” said a livid Glenn Spagnuolo, a lead organizer for the group Re-create 68. “We’re not going to give up Civic Center park to the Democrats. . . . They are creating a very dangerous situation.”
Re-create 68 and its affiliates packed the random lottery with applications to better its chances, but the single entry by Jenny Anderson for the host committee won for Sunday, Aug. 24. The convention will be held Aug. 25-28 at the Pepsi Center.
Spagnuolo has been meeting monthly with city officials for a year, hoping to win the right to use Civic Center throughout the convention. He says 50,000 war protesters are coming for a march from Civic Center to the Pepsi Center on Aug. 24.
He said Thursday that he would not respect the host committee’s permit and would occupy the park, even if it forced police to intervene.
Referring to the $50 million in federal security money slated for the convention, Spagnuolo said Denver police would need “$25 million to protect the Pepsi Center and $25 million to protect Civic Center.”

I encourage you to read the link because you know, the last two sentences just give me hope and a reminder that though the morons of the world want to destroy it, God still prevails. It is beyond me that people would use what happened in Chicago as a MODEL or an ICON for themselves today.
Oh and I learned today that a moron is more intelligent than an imbecile, and an imbecile is more intelligent than an idiot. So calling someone a moron isn’t all that bad!
And actually may be a compliment in some cases…
