Wow!! The peace marches have broken into the MSM!!
Local NBC in Chicago just opened their 5 pm news with the marches and showed the magnificence of all the thousands, marching in Chicago, and then Italy, then New York and Washington, and mentioned around the world! They also talked about the Democratic radio address today which deplores the Bush cuts against veterans.

Their "equal time" was there, but the other side took less than a minute out of a six minute report and looked very weak!

It was THRILLING!! I am so proud of you ALL!! We had to work today, and I have not been well, but we put our anti-war sign up on our house which has seen a lot of demos:

"Thou shalt NOT KILL, Mr. Bush!
Thou shalt NOT STEAL Iraq's oil!
Thou shalt NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS to the American people!"

God bless all of you!! THANK YOU!!

3. PHOTO....go Chicago....STAND UP for Peace...





Thousands of anti-war activists gather in Federal Plaza Saturday, March 19, 2005, in Chicago to mark the second anniversary of the start of the war in Iraq (news - web sites). Protesters sought a permit to march down Michigan Avenue in downtown but were denied by the city prompting a heavy police presence. Police say two protesters were arrested. (AP Photo/Jeff Roberson)
