Every time I go to the VA hospital I have an almost uncontrollable urge to tear into that picture of Shrub right at the entrance. Now that I'm a pacifist Quaker, I'd love nothing more than to spread the message of the Peace Testimony there.

But, the last thing the patients, staff, or anyione else needs is any sort of peace protest, even my speaking of Peace. Rightly or wrongly, those WWII vets aren't going to listen and are going to consider it a slap in the face.

Nope, free stuff and a political message may be what they need there, but it ain't gonna work and the VA ain't gonna put up with it.
