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.
~~snip~~
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.

They don't draw anything. I heard on C-Span from one of the organizers that there will be bus loads of students in from various colleges. It is just a weekend of fun and mischief.

Good idea about the exercise tapes. With more time, they could have sought out a donation of bras to re-gift to the traitors. I'd have a sent a couple. I want a count to know how many aren't wearing one because they burned them long ago. Of course, at this age, they probably broke down and bought some.

Nope. They are all the same form of virulent America hater. They love to make money here though.
