Tens of thousands of demonstrators from across the country are expected to converge in Washington today to urge the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Iraq as President Bush is proposing to send more troops in an effort to stabilize the country.
They plan to rally on the Mall, march around the north side of the Capitol and send a strong message to the government.
The event, which authorities said could draw 100,000 people, starts with a rally at 11 a.m. Among those expected to address the crowd are Jane Fonda, Danny Glover, Susan Sarandon and Jesse Jackson.
The march, organized by the group United for Peace and Justice, is scheduled to start at 1 p.m.

Fifty to 100 members of the Washington chapter of the conservative organization FreeRepublic.com plan to rally near the U.S. Navy Memorial to oppose the march and the participation of Jane Fonda, the chapter said. The actress has long been the object of conservative ire for her support of North Vietnam during the Vietnam War.
"These groups are the ones that are acting as the political arm of the terrorists overseas to help bring about America's defeat in the war on terror," said Kristinn Taylor of FreeRepublic.com.

ROFLMAO................I wish I thought you were kidding, but I can see how they would love that theory.
I'm sitting here wondering about that "any love is good love" line myself. :-)
I am fascinated by people who want her autograph. Pathetic souls.
That crowd looked like the Democrat convention in Atlanta in 1988. The last time real families were in attendance at a convention as delegates.
I wish I could read lips. She sure is talking a lot to that one guy.
Are we sure Bubba didn't sing that to her once?
Yes I caught some of it in the C-Span web-site
"Here's something, here's something that you're never gonna forget
B-B-B-Baby, you just ain't seen nothin' yet
You need educated"
You need educated? I wonder if that is subliminal for "you need brainwashed"
thats a good possiblility.
expecailly the "took what I could get" lines.
Glad to see that the "voices" are "diverse." We certainly wouldn't want non-diverse voices. Perish the thought.
I still can't believe nothing on the WOT, no tough questions, no nothing, just liberal talking points...
50 to 100 on our side? Can't we do better than that, people?
This has to be a tough assignment for the secret service.
I'd be willing to get that many of them are there just to see her. She's famous, 'you know'.
You have to understand -- that would be the wrong kind of diversity.
get = bet (looking at TV and typing)
I'm not up on popular music. What's that song they are playing now?
she has NO Substance, why would anyone vote for her? Nothing she said inspired me, nothing she said was "new" its all the same crap she has been saying since '92.
Wonder if Jane will be wearing a burqua?
She'd better get used to wearing one if her anti-war, anti america campaign is successful THIS time around.....
I don't know that last song but playing "Walk of Life" now.
