1. Wow

Colorado Springs is a hardcore Fundie area too, so that's something else.

2. you should have seen the est. 3000+

wasn't it? for the anti war rally just before the war. the police got to try out their tear gas.

the thing is, this is kidn of an "invisible" protest, only noticable to people going into the AFA commencement. which makes the turnout all the more impressive.

3. Listening to Local Radio Stations Today....

I had to piece the information together by listentin to two of them.

According to KCSJ in Pueblo (a Clear Channel station), there were 150 pro-Bush demonstrators at the North Gate of the Academy, and many anti-Bush demonstrators at the South Gate. KVOR in Colorado Springs (a Citadel station) said there were 520 anti-Bush demonstrators at the South Gate, and many pro-Bush demonstrators at the North Gate.

So by putting the two reports together, we get 520 anti-Bush to 150 pro-Bush. Or 3.5 of us for every one of them.
