Best Hippy Quote Ever!!

Tam posted a description of some hippies going down to the California shore and holding hands to make a statement on the offshore oil drilling. The "Hands Across the Sand" group is an anti-offshore drilling group.

Anyway, the post contains one of the greatest explanations of the entire environmental hippy movement.

In sum total, what you people did was drive someplace where there wasn't a problem, complain about something you don't fully understand, get in the way of people who may actually be performing a function, and then do nothing, en masse, except hope that someone else notices your little snit and makes it all better.

My god, if there's a more perfect metaphor for the modern progressive movement, I've never seen it.

I love it.
