[Yes We Did]

This is video from the protest. This is just horrible. And yes, I do know that these are the tactics that will be used in the fall, but it doesn't make it any less offensive.

10. That would be a perfect shirt to deface with a strike through Obama,

and write in Bush in '08 (back to Crawford as quick as he can go). The wearer is an idiot. Our handsome Obama is not even bothering with this childish crap, I am sure.

12. reminds me of this incident...

Another very important case, in the late 1980s, was Hobson v. Wilson about the FBI’s COINTELPRO activities. During the period of the Vietnam War demonstrations and the civil rights demonstrations, the FBI initiated what they called COINTELPRO, which was the subject of a Congressional investigation by Senator Church. It was a disinformation and disorganization effort by the FBI. For example, agents would call hotels where these people had reservations and cancel them. They would interrupt demonstrations. The most egregious thing: there was an antiwar group here and a black group headed by Julius Hobson, one of the most respected civil rights leaders. At the time the black people and the anti-war people were trying to get together. The FBI forged a letter to the black group purporting to come from the anti-war people that had caricatures of monkeys and a sign, "Let ’em eat bananas." Then they forged letters from the black people making antisemitic remarks about the anti-war people. Some of the people, black and anti-war, brought a suit against the FBI: violation of their constitutional rights. The government vigorously defended the case and lost. It was decided by a jury and affirmed with a very generous opinion by now Chief Judge Edwards.
