Shocker: Stupid hippies plan stupid stunt

Look, I think the Democratic National Convention is a stupid waste of time, too, but you won't see me engaging in this kind of dumbass hippie bullshit:

Organizers of Recreate 68, which is affiliated with at least a dozen protest groups mobilizing for the DNC later this month, are planning to attempt a levitation of the U.S. Mint as a statement against the money being spent on the convention which activists feel would better be spent on the poor.

On the other hand, this makes the lefties look pretty ridiculous, so go ahead and try to levitate that building! Flower Power!

Oh, and as for the guiding principles behind this protest?

"It's time to redistribute the wealth," reads a statement at the Recreate68.org Web site.

"Between security and corporate payoffs, the DNC will cost over 100 million dollars for a party. We think the people deserve that money."

The statement goes on to say, "Join us as we encircle the Denver Mint...and use our collective power to raise the Mint building in the air and shake the money out of it for the people."

Hippie nonsense coupled with Commie rhetoric at the Democrat convention...who could have seen that coming?

This is going to be a fun convention.
