Today was the most exciting day of my life!
My first major Protest! My first experience to see what democracy is all about, there were so many protesters that the White House was totally surrounded from the Ellipse. We stood hours before we could move 5 feet. It was great. The greatest ever. Bush is done, and today showed it.

3. Maybe next time,
I am 55 and it has been a long time coming, but I finally made it. I loved it! It has refreshed my feelings and beliefs. I read where there were 50 freepers there, I saw only 2 on one corner and our crowd stoped, pointed and laughed at them. It was wonderful.
