I'm talking about these bozos:
Tens of thousands of anti-war protesters demonstrated across Europe on Saturday to mark the second anniversary of the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq, with 45,000 marching from London's Hyde Park past the American Embassy.

In Istanbul, Turkey, about 15,000 people protested in the Kadikoy neighborhood against the U.S. presence in Iraq.

Great idea. There is so much potential in protesting an event that happened two years ago. Never mind that the situation in Iraq is improving every single day. Ignore the fact that the infrastructure there has far exceeded what it was under Saddam - except in the now neglected arenas of torture and execution. Forget that the Iraqi people elected a constitutional congress in an amazing show of bravery and determination for self rule.

I'm wondering what these people will protest next...maybe Syria's 'pull-out' of Lebanon or the Israeli/Palestinian peace talks?
