And just when you thought an ambulance chaser couldn't stoop any lower, check this out from his official Anti-War Website (http://www.supportthetroopsendthewar.com/):

Get vocal. Buy a bunch of poster-board and markers. At a picnic or with family and friends, make signs that say “SUPPORT THE TROOPS - END THE WAR.” Bring them to your local Memorial Day parade. Then take a digital photo of yourself and your family or friends holding up the poster and tell us about it (http://www.supportthetroopsendthewar.com/create.php?t=6). We’ll include it in a “Democracy Photo Album” on our site. And that's just some of the stuff he's promoting. I really like the idea how he trivializes Memorial Day into a Bush Bashing event instead of what it's really meant for, remembering those who've given their all.

Sadly many people I know use Memorial day as an excuse to get drunk.

Ah yes, Mr. Two Americas in his full glory. I'm still laughing from the "I worked at a hedge fund to learn about the markets and understand poverty" line. The thing is, he actually believes he's got a shot at the Dem nomination.roflroflrofl

I find that most people in America use Memorial Day to grill out and get drunk.

Unfortunately, this is true. I'm trying to think of something that can be good to honor our patriots past and present.
