"Women say Pull Out"
Okay I know see that that is a CodePink slogan but I was laughing out loud at that sign on C-Span on Saturday.

I also loved the "No one likes you" sign I saw on a march pic thread here.

I am very sorry that we couldn't join you all but the crowd was amazing. Both the number but I think that anyone tuning in got to see that it wasn't just the Uncle Sam guy on stilts and neo-hippies Not that there is anything wrong with that.

Now about the numbers. Fox News was in full "Remain calm! All is well!" mode with the anchor very slowly and expressly saying "this is a modest protest" he had to have said it three times. I was flipping around most of the day to catch what coverage I could find. CNN had some guy on at 10:30 AM saying "This crowd is smaller than expected. I was at the pro-life rally on Monday I would have to say that that crowd was much larger"

:grr:

I am sure you all know now about the cut to Hillary in Iowa on C-Span but I see that that was planned and the march itself was never going to be covered.

This morning (after the Wiggles was over of course) I switched over to CNN to see if there was a recap of the weekend.... yes there was.

Ellen Cho had a full report. A full report on Prince Charles coming to America. Seriously.

I'm afraid they pretty much have decided that nothign happened. Well at least O'Reilly has a feature on "Susan Jane and their Bush bashing anti-war agenda" tonight. They think this is a winner or at least they ran out of time killers oh yeah Bill is also going to have a story about the half dressed coffee girls in Seattle surely followed by Hannity and his ongoing "sex teachers" exposes.

Anyway great work folks you done good.

1. I found it interesting that MSRNC (NBC=Whore) called it...
A "MASSIVE" protest.

My jaw dropped in disbelief.
Then I heard it at least four or five more times over the weekend.
Contessa Brewer was the first to say it and I guess it caught on.

I love this pic too... found at Bartcop.com

No, there are still people here who are criticizing Clinton about it. It is HER fault, after all.

3. Another chant that tickled me at the march was....
Condi Condi Condi Rice,
Your policy sucks, but
your shoes are nice!

We screamed that one a lot! LOL

Remember, her alleged $5,000 purchase of Ferragamos in NY while NO drowned?
