So Cindy is leading a march to the White House to deliver our Iran message

and then onto Rumsfelds house with Ray McGovern in the lead to ask Rummy why he lied (ask again).

This is only eight days away, and I'm not seeing too many threads about it. The ones seen sink pretty fast.

Anyone planning on showing up to give support?

Here's the details: http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/rumsfeld

16. Ditto. I went last Sept--great experience--but there's a limit to travel

God it was great to stop in front of the White House en masse so we could shout "Liar! Liar! Liar!" We knew he wasn't at home, but still...

My friend pointed out all the sharpshooters on the rooftops -- Nothing says "Welcome to your nation's capitol" like armed troops.

If anyone is carrying a poster with DUers' names on it, please add mine.

2. If Cindy's in Washington, W's in Crawford.

He's scared to death of her and facing the truth.

4. It doesn't always matter whether people show-up. We aren't going

away, nor changing our minds about Bush's War.

We support Cindy by being active locally - from now on . . . .

7. For this I think it matters. It's important and we need as many

as possible for it to make the news.

If there's 200, it will be a small blurb.

If there's 10,000 then it will get wider coverage. As a bonus, the context of the subsequent march to Rumsfelds house will be covered and the context provided (McGoverns questioning of Rummy last friday)

This needs to be a big splash IMO.

6. Indeed. And btw, if ANYONE HASN'T SEEN THE VIDEO see it here:

The COMPLETE question Ray McGovern asked Rummy last Friday:
http://bradblog.com/video/flvplayer/FlvPlayer.html?file=http://www.ameratsu.com/media/vid/msnbc/msnbc_ko_rumsfeld_mcgovern_debate_060504a_320x240.flv&width=320&height=240&OrigWidth=320&OrigHeight=240

An incredible display of brilliance by Mr. McGovern.

An embarrassing tipping point for Rummy.

8. I'm in the area & I'm going down there

We marched on Rumsfeld's house last year & screaming No More War at the top of my lungs in front of Rummy's house was downright exhilarating.

9. Excellent!! I'm looking into getting holidays and might join you there!!

It will be amazing I think. After what Ray McGovern did to Rumsfeld last week I feel like this administration is finally exposed for what it is.

10. good on you Cindy!

btw, I just got my absentee ballot and I wrote in Cindy Sheehan's name rather than vote for Dianne Frankenstein. I just couldn't bring myself to vote for that witch Feinstein again after all of the things she has done.

:thumbsup: to Cindy Sheehan, a real American! :patriot:
