A few days back there was a funny blog entry in Down with Tyranny asking this same question about Republicans and it was a hilarious exercise that spread around the blogs and helped everyone laugh at todays politics briefly before they started crying again.

I don't mean to draw equivalences here, I am firmly in the camp that says that the Republican corruptions and incompetencies are more overtly dangerous. I also believe, however, that the Democrats are failing in a very important way as well. Like an abused spouse, the Democrats, as a party, are not throwing the punches that hurt but they are enabling the abuse. They are in complete denial about their own role in it and they attack and marginalize those who try to sit them down and tell them that they have a problem.

With that little bit of depressing psychobabble out of the way, I think it's time to take another moment to laugh a little more about the absurdity of it all. So. . .

How many Democrats does it take to screw in a light bulb?

I've been doing some research into the arrest of ANSWER coalition activists Adam Kokesh, an Iraq veteran, Tina Richards, the mother of a Marine, and Ian Thompson, an organizer, for posting a protest anouncement on authorized public property. While I am not a lawyer, I do know how to find and read the civil code in question and seems pretty clear to me that these arrests and police actions were unlawful.

There is a YouTube Video of the outrageous over-reaction by police and the arrest that is worth watching if you haven't already.

ANSWER coalition also tells it in their own words.

In short: These people were at a scheduled press conference specifically to announce the legality of putting up posters on public property. It is unlikely that they didn't already know the law.
