IVAW Board election results

One of our IVAW refugees smuggled out the election results for the IVAW board. Only 79 people out of their supposed 1700 members voted;

1. Seth Manzel – 60
2. Cameron S. White – 57
3. Matthis Chiroux – 50
4. Trey Kindlinger – 48
5. Thomas J. Buonomo – 43
6. Bryan Reinholdt Jr. – 42
7. Victor Agosto – 38
8. Joesph Kurtenbach – 38
9. Selena Coppa – 24

I guess Agosto was their Eugene V. Debs candidate running from prison – I didn’t know he was running – he must’ve been a write-in. I’m guessing that the first six are their board members now (but who knows how it’ll shake out in that bass-akward society of theirs).

Geof Millard certified the election, so you know there’s nothing fishy about it.

To the “so what?” crowd; I know this doesn’t interest you – but proves the point that TSO and I have been making for the last year and more – IVAW is no longer a veterans organization. That’s obvious by the way they voted. The two with the lowest vote counts both campaigned on serving veterans – the others campaigned on being a peace movement not a VSO.

Now, IVAW is a group of self-propelled mannequins for the anti-war movement to put in front of their protest marches to wear their “Iraq Veteran” T-shirts and give the hippies some perceived measure of legitimacy.

But since they’re being led by people who’ve never set foot in Iraq, there goes their legitimacy – and the membership chose that route. If there was no This Ain’t Hell who would prove that to you if you saw them on the street?
