Grill a Steak Tomorrow for Code Pink & Diane Wilson

Diane Wilson of Code Pink is asking you not to eat tomorrow in protest of the GWOT. Per the WSJ:

On Thursday we noted that Diane Wilson planned to start a hunger strike tomorrow: "I'm just a shrimper whose gonna stop eatin' to stop the war," she said in an interview with Code Pink. Wilson urged others to join her, and said you don't even have to stop eating altogether: "You can drink fruit juices, or anything that's liquid--just no solid food. People can make their choice about how to fast--whether water only or a liquid fast

This got us to thinking, what could we do to show our support for American victory? It seems obvious: Do the opposite of what Wilson is doing. Tomorrow, July 4, we plan to throw a big juicy steak on the grill and devour it in a show of patriotism. We urge you to do the same."....................


Well we had a nice pepper-corn tender loin on the grill this evening and it was dynamite...........................

I had not picked out tomorrows grill offering but after reading this post it's all decided, nice ribeye steaks for the wife and kids and a juicy strip for the Grill Master. Finished with a garlic butter basting and with a side of sautéed mushrooms of course.......................YUM.....................

I will have some liquid refreshment drinks tomorrow while I'm grilling and after my meal as Ms. Wilson has suggested but they will be hops based not juice based.................I gladly don't think I will qualify as a participant in Diane Wilson's protest..........

Ah, the counter code pink protest, how fulfilling and truly satisfying in terms of good cuisine but more importantly, knowing your not a political nut on the 4th of July...................
