Protest Pictures from Washington, DC (Dial Up Warning)
My favorite sign of the march (Chicken George)


There were some great dogs at the march






And some great signs








Bush was everywhere






The most important thing is that once again I got to show my children that is what Democracy looks like:









My children marching for the 4th time against this war

32. Me, too. Actually, I have been enjoying the entire spectrum of participants,
no matter what the number of legs.

People of every age, every color, every mode of dress, strollers and wheelchairs, walking dogs and walking with kids, civilians and veterans, street theater people and their audiences, signs of every shape, size, slogan, and ALL uber-creative! Holy COW! It's been raised to an art form here, as we can all see.

Thanks for the photos, qanda! Cute kids, too!

6. Less than 100,000?
In your one photo alone there were at least 20,000 and that was just a smidgen of the group.

Thanks for posting. Your kids are soooo cute. I bet they get their good looks from their aunt. hee hee :-)

Thanks for hanging out.

Peace.

23. AT LAST!! Kids ARE Adorable & I Love All The Animals Too...
but one of my favorites besides those is... Bush as SHARK BAIT!!

I made a sign that said OPEN YOUR (drew two eyes underneath to indicate EYES) & underneath that... NO MORE LIES.

On the other side I wrote IMAGINE each letter a different color, then made a HUGE Peace sign and filled it in with multiple colors. Got a lot of compliments and had a GREAT time at a very very big March in a very red county! The one that had 18,000 plus under-votes. We had almost 500... I said FIVE HUNDRED people there! Unheard of way down here, and a wonderful shock!

I would have loved it in D.C. and will try to get there in March!

Thanks again, and thanks for keeping your children involved. I'm planning on bringing my grand-daughter to D.C. if I can manage it financially!

GOOD WORK.... GREAT WORK!!
