DNC RNC 2008 IVAW Twilight Zone Disappointment

DENVER, August 28 – Welcome to the twilight zone where clouds part, weapons are put away, anarchists weep with joy over electoral politics, Ron Kovic pushes away a Code Pink woman during a photo shoot with riot cops because the shoot “was just for service people—people who've served our country,” riot cops taking group photo shoots of each other, demonstrators congratulating police for their “professionalism” and, amidst the heavenly light, Jesus(!)—no, wait—it's IVAW negotiating with Denver's “finest” in order to deliver a note to the Democrats!
