3. Oh My!
Sean Hannity is going to question your "timing in protesting America when we have troops in the field".

4. There was a march in Boston yesterday as well.
I didn't get any pictures, but it had a pretty small turnout (relatively speaking).

What was VERY nice to see was near Boston Commons (I wasn't in the march, didn't know about it til it passed in front of me), was that the crowd on the sides of the streets that were stopped to let the marchers go by CHEERED quite loudly at the marchers against Shrub and his war.

BUT, when the typical follow-up freepers walked by, they were jeered and booed by the crowd. It was quite fun to watch freepers get booed by a huge crowd of onlookers.

6. And so it begins again...
Let's hope protesting has more of an effect now than it did in March...
