I don't know if there's time enough for this for us to plan this and have it be pragmatic... But perhaps there might be some way to have a bike ride (kind of like Iowa's RAGBRAI) or some other way to walk or ride on non-powered vehicles with hurricane victims to Washington. For all of those leaving New Orleans and other parts of the destruction down there, who have made it through that mess without needing to rest or get medical attention, perhaps some would be motivated if others joined them and we had a caravan of people, bikes, (and perhaps cars) that we all move together on a trip walking to DC from the south. Perhaps Cindy Sheehan can even join us with her road tour being a part of this. Perhaps this would send a message that people are simply FED UP with thihs administration and that something needs to be done about it. By us walking with them and feeding them, we do give them something to do, and a "place" to be (walking with us). And then they can have the choice of squatting in Washington DC after September 24th too, until Washington sees fit to do something about finding housing, etc. for them.
