Put On Your Rainboots And March To End The War!

Yes, it is a little wet out in the NYC area this morning, as it probably is down in D.C. as well. But that is no reason to stop you from dressing up for the weather and coming out to protest our President and his misbegotten war. This may not be the 60s and we aren't facing a draft (yet) but civilians in Iraq and our troops are dying, it is still serious business. For those of you that are blasé about walking the streets and chanting "hey hey, ho ho, George Bush has got to go," read this excellent post by Meteor Blades over at DailyKos.

There are plenty of groups meeting at 11am in the Union Square area and will start to march at noon from 23rd and B'Way down to Foley Square. After much internal debate I'm going to leave the suit and tie off and put on some more comfortable gear to march with the Democracy For New York City group. They're all ex-Deaniacs (like myself) and if you want to check them out, see more here.

Last time, don't be lazy people. Get outside and do something about this war. Protesting will not end the war tomorrow, but as Meteor Blades said, it is an important tool in our arsenal against the dictatorial George Bush.
