the "D" word

Certificate of Induction

into

The Hall of Shame

September 17th, 2007

Awarded to

____________________________________________

For complicity in one or more of the following:

prolonging the continued illegal occupation of Iraq,

supporting an unjustified attack on Iran,

accepting money from industries that profit from war,

violating our civil liberties,

and/or promoting torture.

Presented by: CODEPINK Women for Peace

As many of you already know, a couple of weeks ago we delivered Hall of Shame Certificates to the worst of the worst of the Republican lawbreakers. Well, recently we have begun delivering them to the doolittle democrats.

After six months of creative lobbying on Capitol Hill with hopes to get Congress to defund the war, I am bereft of words to describe my emotions as the Democrats continue to ignore the voice of the people by giving the President just what he asks for.

The only words that come to mind begin with the letter "d" and not for devoted democrat. Try these on for size and pick the one you like best or add your own!

DISAPPOINTING
DEPRESSING
DISHEARTENING
DEMORALIZING
DEGRADING
DISGRACEFUL
DESPICABLE
DISMAYING

DEFIANT ;-7

I heard hall-of-shamer Dana Rohrbacher on the radio this morning. What a creep! I felt like I had to take a shower afterwards.

Anyway, I'm often tempted to choose DEPRESSING as the word that describes the situation, but I have to remember that that is never the best choice. When we work for peace, we know that we are doing the right thing. I believe that those who are not working for peace do not understand peace. When a child does not know how to read, I would rather teach her to read than to tell her that she is ignorant or get depressed about her lack of understanding. As I was honored to sing with Sherry and Sheba last Saturday:

Let there be peace on earth,
and let it begin with me.

So, I won't choose words to describe the congress, I will choose words to describe my sisters!!
DEDICATED
DELIGHTFUL,
and ....
IN DE PINK !!

Indeed, Jim.

The "DEFIANT" wasn't for them - much as they would like to think so.

It was for us.
