#1 These jokers are a hoot. Makes me glad to be a soldier and an American. Honestly to think I go shoulder to shoulder to protect the likes these freaks is a hoot.

#2 Yeah, we link to hers, and to another very revealing photograph too. It's all in Andrew's Winds of War: 2003-10-27 .

#3 Say, how come these folks weren't out there at the UN HQ and the Red Cross in Baghdad as "human shields" protecting them from those American B-52's?

#4 Hey Star Wars fans! Is there any mention of A.N.S.W.E.R. in the Peace Brigade(the SW:NJO equivalent of the ISM)?

#6 50,000 is what I heard, and now I see these photographs. I think somebody has trouble counting in the press room

#7 A.N.S.W.E.R. claimed 100,000 in attendance. The news claimed under 10,000. The Freep folks claimed about 4,000. Either way you slice it, that's still a lot of misguided people.

#8 Jarhead - the local newspaper reported a moose wandering in the middle of downtown, along the creek that runs along the Interstate. They specifically asked people to NOT go down there, because of the traffic, because moose can be rather dangerous to us poor flabby homosaps, and because they didn't want people to startle the critter and have him run out into a vehicle on the Interstate. By the end of the week, 15,000 people a day were going moose-gazing. This isn't Washington - we're a third the size. If you've got something that interests people, they show up. If you don't, well, look at the photos! I'd be willing to bet a third of the people there were there just to see who else turned out, not to really DO anything.

BTW, the majority of the people that went moose-gazing were quiet, respectful of the fact that the moose was a wild creature, and just LOOKED. No incidents, no danger - for more than a month. The moose seemed to be oblivious to his stardom.
