Too bad the anti-war marches weren't this large.

1. I just saw it on TV

Amazing crowds! I thought the same thing about the anti-war marches. If this many people took to the streets throughout the country to protest the war, we'd be out of Iraq in a hurry. It was the massive protests that got us out of Vietnam.

2. Maybe these marches will wake up some people.

I did see a lot of anti war marchers and anti bush marchers as well. I was carrying my sign that read "NO MORE WARS BASED ON LIES!" got a lot of thumbs up!
