(snip) As the country readies to send 20,000 more troops to Iraq, 300 Bay Staters will surge into Washington today alongside thousands of their dismayed compatriots for an old-fashioned anti-war protest.
"dismayed compatriots" --- what a crowd, they're "dismayed". (barf)
Hoping for a breakdown
Spare me the terminology.

The Pledge will keep running throughout the weekend, its signers continuing to try and get through to Republican Senate leadership with the message that now is the time to refuse to go along to get along with Senate Democrats. Now is the time to support the troops and thus to refuse cloture on the Biden resolution.
Please sign, and then take a look at the full blogroll, and then the state map. Then make an effort to contact the key GOP senators, starting with Senator McConnell and Senator McCain.
