Cold rain doesn't stop hundreds from protesting Iraq war

A few hundred high school and college students, undeterred by a steady rain and hoping to capitalize on public opinion, walked out of their classes Friday to protest the war in Iraq,

"It's something we're really, really against," said University of Minnesota senior Amy Clute, who joined the protesters on the school's Twin Cities campus.

The students listened to speakers, chanted slogans and held anti-war posters and banners. Two protesters wore President Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney masks and dressed in orange prison garb, toting a sign saying, "Try all war criminals."

University police arrested one protester for throwing red paint onto the window of the military recruiting station. Five others, who were involved in smearing the paint, were cited for disorderly conduct, said Deputy Chief Steve Johnson.

This not going to stop

This path damn ugly
Yet people all walking along
Not seeing not looking
Not wanting to admit where it is all heading to

I guess the Almighty bush worth all this :puke:
