Pictures from the NY Protest today

[NewHampster]

Wish I could have made it. Here is Joey's report

We had about 150 people there. Some got there at 6:30a.m.

Women, men, people of all color. People drove from Philly. Woman took the night bus down
from Boston. People from Texas, some foreigners, the NC contingent and two lovely African
Americans who made the trip in from Connecticut. Eyedoc, front and center. Les33 with the
Bullhorn!!! Freethinker and Murray were interviewed by O'Reilly's producer. The papers were
there taking lots of pics. Hillary speaks for me was there interviewing as well.

Everyone was so thrilled to be there and so enthusiastic. Yelled all during the Today show.
Lots of police to keep us away and then they wouldn't let us use the bullhorn b/c Today show
was still going on. Funny how they moved their stuff way down to the other end and kept the
Singers on well past the TV time. Trying to shut us up I think.

3. thanks for the pics!

I just ordered that brown shirt with "Hillary" written in blue on the front (bottom pic). The only way I could donate money to her is by ordering something. I emailed her campaign about it a couple times but to no avail. The problem: I have an APO address and there is no "AP - Armed Forces Pacific" listed on her donation site. When I gave to Edwards, there was on his site. Without it, my address won't match my billing address on my credit card and gets rejected. But the Hillary store on her site does offer "other state".

I know a lot of soldiers like her over here and even if many wouldn't donate or couldn't afford to donate, she is still missing out on some money.

5. Silence ...

Silence

Too many women in too many countries
speak the same language of silence.
My grandmother was always silent, always aggrieved
Only her husband had the cosmic right (or so it was said)
to speak and be heard.
They say it is different now.
(After all, I am always vocal and my grandmother
thinks I talk too much)
But sometimes I wonder.
When a woman shares her thoughts, as some women do,
graciously, it is allowed.
When a woman fights for power, as all women would like
to, quietly or loudly, it is questioned.
And yet, there must be freedom — if we are to speak
And yes, there must be power — if we are to be heard.
And when we have both (freedom and power) let us now be
understood.
We seek only to give words to those who cannot speak
(too many women in too many countries)
I seek to forget the sorrows of my grandmother's silence.

7. Thank you. I was not aware of it

and kicked your GDP thread.

I don't watch Olbermann any more, nor do I watch NBC. Wonder whether any of this was reported.
