John Edwards believes the best way to spend Memorial Day is to protest the Iraq War (HT: Protein Wisdom), including a suggestion, โ€œAt a picnic or with family and friends, make signs that say โ€œSUPPORT THE TROOPS โ€“ END THE WAR.โ€ Bring them to your local Memorial Day parade.โ€

(I credit Edwards and the site creators for stating, โ€œAnd during your event, make sure you conduct yourself respectfullyโ€”both for those serving in Iraq and the memory of the brave servicemen and women that Memorial Day honors.โ€)

Didnโ€™t we just have Motherโ€™s Day For Peace? Great, we can spend these special holidays arguing about the warโ€ฆ the same way we do every other day of the year.
