Protestors at the White House: Shame on Bush
Protestors at the White House: Shame on Bush

More than 150 protestors organized today outside of the White House including a few evacuees from Hurricane Katrina. There’s a movement underway to build an encampment of evacuees on the Washington Mall, starting on 9/11, I posted about that last night here. The cries of anger towards the Bush administration are growing louder by the day. With in a couple of weeks thousands of people will mobilize on Washington, DC in a mass protest against the Iraq war (Sept 24 - 26). The LCV is organizing a rally on Sept 20th, Arctic Refuge Action Day.

“I want to know what the government is gonna do now … I’m very angry,” said Michelle Augillard, a student who fled her native New Orleans before Katrina hit.

With the US flag flying at half mast over the White House out of respect for the hurricane victims, the protestors chanted “Impeach Bush” and held up blue and yellow banners reading: “Shame” and “Help the Hurricane Victims.”
