It's like the Salem witch hunts Willow, it only took one child to shout 'witch' and you ended up having to defend yourself.

I thought it was a spoof at first.

May day is the workers holiday, a celebration for the working class and their rights. And no unelected government leader will take that away. Its just part of the coalition of the right *wing* attempts to obliterate May Day and its historical significance.

Hey why don’t we have a military parade outside the white house. No one has done that before

Great Idea! We could parade around a bunch of our large missles too!

So cheerful and celebratory, yet also so sinister. Kinda like every major operation undertaken by this administration. Hmmm.

And in a clever move the coalition of the right *wing* will now brain wash every American that those people around the world protesting on may day are anti Americans, and therefore evil and deserving of derision and contempt.

No mention of the historical significance and the need to rally against the unintentional evil of corporate globalisation except perhaps in a quaint offhand way with a smirk on thier face

You people are just dying to find some sinister plot to assign to GWB sheesh...did you know that more than half of that wording was standard boilerplate for declaring a national holiday....geez get over it already....I know Canada also has a few.....odd....holidays and there are any number of suspect Holidays from around the world..so if they want to take a day and celebrate national loyalty then fine...Loyalty is not a dirty word ya know...it is considered a virtue by some people.

Edit: Look out world the evil Americans are coming..One Nation to rule them all, One Nation to find them, One nation to bring them all and in the darkness bind them....in the land of SUV's where the ozone lies.

You're right Magik, but let us have our fun. You can wrangle on all you like the next time a democrat is in power. Give and take.
