Did I hear right?
Headline news just said the organizers of the "pro troops rally" (or as I prefer to call it the pro-war rally) today in DC - which drew around 400 people -- had expected a crowd of 20,000?

5. I read they were "preparing" for 20,000.
Which I guess means they knew only a handful would show up.

Yup, a nation clearly divided.

6. But the freepers are saying that they are too busy raising money
for katrina victims and other stuff. I noticed that the official public donations for the Iraq war totaled $600.:eyes:

8. Unlike us Dems the freepers can only concentrate on one
thing at a time! Either they demonstrate or they raise another $600 for Katrina victims! Oh, no that was Irag.
