How did Conyers @ WH gates photo play in the free world?

Anyone know?

Did it get much coverage in Europe? Did Al Jazeera carry it?

I think it was the most graphic depiction of our lack of democracy since Selma.

Once you've seen the picture of an elected representative, a person of color, standing outside the bars surrounding the White House, attempting to pass a petition with over a hundred Congressional signatures and more than half a million citizens' signatures, to a young white male with clenched fists, the image stays with you.

2. Geez, i haven't seen it yet, and I've been looking for it!
I watched the CSPAN coverage and then looked all over for a video or some link to the Layfette park rally, but couldn't find anything. So, I'd guess that means NO ONE in the mainstream media has seen it!! :( Could you please lend a link so I can spread the word? Thanks!

I copied it to my desktop & "my pictures" but don't know how to copy it here, sorry.

And here's (I hope) the link to the post in that thread that tells you how to find the photo on Yahoo! News so you can rate it up and email it to others.

4. It signifies to me that dubby and the gang are in full control
They control our money, our agenda and we are lucky to slip something through the gates for the emperor to cast his eyes upon.
They can take us to war in any country of their choosing and do things outside of Geneva Conventions in our name at places built by enriched cronies at taxpayer expense.

I can't imagine the emperor taking kindly to the peasants delivering notes that question PNAC policy. They have everything locked up and sewn up. It will take a tough bunch of righteous Americans to remove the thugs from the ivory towers. A little help from the rest of the free world would be welcome.
HELP!
