Tactical Nuke: Sunday, July 29, 2012

• Well, Romney is in Israel now. Please don't say something stupid there Mitt. That's the last thing we need right now. Just shake people's hands, stick that piece of paper in the Wall, and move along smartly.

• Japanese anti-nuclear groups are protesting at the Parliament. If you've never been to one of these protests (I've seen one first hand in Japan), let me describe it for you:

- They schedule it, and everyone shows up at the same time. When the scheduled time comes for it to be over, everyone calmly departs.

- They do not get very loud, they are usually well dressed, and they try not to obstruct traffic, pedestrian or otherwise.

- If they do get in someone's way, they apologize and move.

- They spend the time holding up signs and articulating their position on the issue...not playing bongos and being incoherent.

Basically, they are the complete opposite of OWS hippies.
