Ben & Jerry's Brings You the Dumbest Re-Enactment of the Decade; Honors Moral Equivalency for Palestinian Terrorism
Remember these two drug-addled citizens of Greater Hirsutia and their famous advertisement for bed sores, AIDS, and how to help Communism succeed in its tyranny? They called it a "Peace Bed-In."
Well, homely actress Maggie Gyllenhaal--who famously told us that America is to blame for 9/11 and that we deserved it--is teaming up with "peace activists" (I call them, "the capitulation team") and Ben & Jerry's at the ice cream company's New York to re-create the John Lennon and Yoko Ono Peace Bed-In of 1969.
Joining Ms. Gyllenhaal will be photographer Roy Kerwood, who shot the original protest. They will be honoring today's "leaders" of the peace movement, including Robert Kent, who runs a moral equivalency camp for the kids of Israelis and the Palestinian terrorism supporters who would destroy them. All together now: Awww.
And in another example of the capitalism multi-millionaires Lennon and Ono pretended to be against, Ben & Jerry's is unveiling a new Lennon tribute ice cream, "Imagine Whirled Peace,"--caramel and sweet cream ice cream, fudge peace signs, and toffee cookie pieces.
What kind of mix-in will symbolize all the diseases John and Yoko got in their free love lifestyle?
And when will they produce the ice cream flavor about how nukes brought down the Soviet Union and communism, because we--thankfully--didn't listen to John and Yoko?
Oh, and where is the ice cream tribute to the first wife and son (Julian) whom John Lennon cast aside for Yoko? Talk about "Whirled Peace".
The whole thing is part of Ben & Jerry's promotion of the Lennon Estate and Peace One Day, a nonprofit group whose goal is to have a global ceasefire every Sept. 21.
Hmmm . . . maybe they should have a "HAMAS Caramel Chaos" flavor. I'm sure--in exchange for a slice of the profits--the group will agree to a "hudna"--a ceasefire--on Sept. 21, while they plan their next terrorist attack. (Check out my other suggested "Peaceful" Islamic Ben & Jerry's flavor names.)
As I've noted in the past, Ben & Jerry's paid for Cindy Sheehan's world tour, peppered with anti-Semitic and anti-American sentiment.
Very un-delish.

Have not bought Ben & Jerry's ice cream for years. Have not missed it one bit. Will not miss it in the future.
IIRC, Lennon and Ono had abandoned many of their once held left-liberal platitudes by the time of Lennon's death.

Imagine theres no limp wristed, depressed, spineless, mindless freedom hating, America bashing, myopic, socialistic ice cream makers. Its easy if you try.

I've never eaten ben and jerry's ice cream before, and it looks like it'll stay that way the rest of my life.

And their ice cream is hazardous to good health.

I've never had Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream. It's overpriced and we make our own. For the price of a gallon of Ben & Jerry's, we can make 15 gallons at home with better taste and it's fun to do!
I made a 5 gallon manual crank freezer out of scrap wood, bicycle parts, leftover steel wire, and some old tupperware. Cost: around $3.00 for parts and 2 hours to build (gave it the ol' college try).
This protest reminds me of that artist who abused and starved a stray dog to death inside a museum as "art." If they think we'll end the war to get them out of a bed, then I guess Hollywood's drug and alcohol problem is worse than we all thought.

The best part of the "Sleep-In" was when cartoonist Al Capp ("L'il Abner") - a strong supporter of the Vietnam War - dropped in to confront Lennon. The Beatle soon ran out of words and tossed Capp out.
As for Maggie G, going bra-less doesn't work with saggies. Last I heard she was expressing her love for Indie-movies. Good, because that is all she is going to get.

Let's not also forget that Ben and Jerry's have contributed massive amounts of bank to the legal defense fund for cop-killers in NJ and NY over the years. F**kin' douchebags!
As for Mag the Hag, I wouldn't let my dog near that...
