Marc Cooper, January 7, 1965:

"It's madness because bombing defenseless peasants in Vietnam is a
barbaric outrage.  It's also one of the toughest political nuts to
crack ...".

Marc Cooper, January 7, 1365:

"It's madness because racking people and torturing them for the crime
of heresy is a barbaric outrage.  It's also one of the toughest
political nuts to crack ...".

Marc Cooper, January 7, 1983:

"It's madness because paying the contras to murder innocent
civilians is a barbaric outrage.  It's also one of the toughest
political nuts to crack ...".

Marc Cooper, January 7, 1992:

"It's madness because the bombing of Iraqi civilians and denying food
supplies to them is a barbaric outrage.  It's also one of the toughest
political nuts to crack ...".

etc.

What a goddamn idiot.
