The majority of which were just gullible college kids that were crowded in on old school buses at $50.00 a head.

I've never seen evidence that they were paid. Some get free bus rides or substatially subsidized.

Mainly it's a big party for them. For people who grieve the dead, it's only when the cameras are on. The rest of the time it's smiles, dancing, etc, all while bashing America, the troops and Bush. They LOVE to HATE.

Comments: We need a minimum of 20 people to get Amtrak's group rate.
This is not advertised and sort of a "secret" but when the train pulls
out of the station, if there are still sleeper cars unsold, Amtrak will
sell them to you for HALF PRICE - so a round trip sleeper car suite with
private bath including all meals would cost only $325.00! It takes 58
hours from Sacramento to Washington, D.C. You can stay at the youth
hostel downtown and it is very close to the capitol mall. Code Pink has
rented a house for folks to stay at. Lets make this happen!
