Seriously, It's Time to MOVE ON, People!

From the Boston Globe comes this charming tale of a small group of reality-challenged moonbat holdouts taking up residence on the sidewalk outside John Kerry's home - sorry, that's John Kerry's family's home - in Louisburg Square.



Group holds fast to Kerry cause with Beacon Hill vigil

The election is long over. A new year is starting, and even most of the more ardent liberals are moving on. But in Louisburg Square this week, one determined group isn't quite ready to let go. About a half dozen supporters of John Kerry are holding vigil in front of his house, still hoping for a Kerry presidency.


Knock yourselves out, folks, whatever buckles your Birks. But, you DO realize how utterly silly you look, right? On second thought, don't answer that.

The little knot of demonstrators, calling themselves the Coalition Against Election Fraud, stood shivering in the cold yesterday, hoisting signs and pressing fliers into the hands of bewildered passersby.

"Who knows? Maybe we'll overturn the election," said Sheila Parks, a vigil organizer.


Yeah, and maybe I'll wake up tomorrow morning to discover I've acquired the unique ability to shit gold ingots. Who knows? It could happen, man.

Parks said the group believes the election was fixed and wants to persuade the Massachusetts senator to oppose congressional approval of the electoral college results Jan. 6. That would set in motion the process of questioning George W. Bush's victory in November.


Set it in motion? Just what do you think you idiots have based your very existence on for the last four years?

Parks, who years ago legally changed her surname to that of the famed civil rights activist Rosa Parks, plans to take her group to Washington, D.C., next week to push her cause.


No word yet on whether she plans to take her group to Washington state to contest the shenanigans being undertaken by the campaign staff of Democrat gubernatorial candidate Christine Gregoire and the King County election officials.

Just to be clear, I fully support their right to carry on in however ridiculous a fashion as they see fit, just as I expect them to support my right to call them a bunch of raving lunatic whackknobs.

UPDATE (12/30/04): I'll be damned if I don't have the smartest readers on the internet. From Jay G. in the comments section of this post:

Hire these people to picket in Southie, standing in people's parking spaces!!!

Think about it: The people in Southie get to save their parking spaces, these raving moonbats get to wave their signs; everybody's happy!


And yes, Jay, I'm on the phone to Oslo as we speak.
