Why I think Activism Can Be Stupid

oilfree.gifMoveOn.org is gearing up for a Rally for an Oil Free Congress event on June 28. From their site:

Gas prices are off the charts, the situation in the Middle East is unstable, scientists are warning that global warming is at a tipping point, and last month, MoveOn members decided that "clean, sustainable energy" should be one of our key goals. Tha'’s why it's time for an "Oil-Free Congress."
Spending an afternoon in the 100 degree heat here in Texas to protest America's crack-like addiction to oil is not on my agenda. Not even if they had a frozen margarita machine and wet t-shirt contests. I guess I could drive up to the station in my Ford Expidition with the a/c on full blast and say, 'Yeah! Right on dudes!' and peel out, cutting off some sucker in a Prius...now that sounds like a fun to me.

Seriously. Dumbest. Protest. Ever.

This is what comes of planning such things while sitting at a computer, probably Up North.
Believe it or not, there are huge sections of this country
in which June 28 is going to be pretty and comfortable outdoors.
