Just got back from a peace rally--Share your stories
It was the biggest in Tucson 2003, I think. There were lots of people (200 or so) and the counter pro-war rally was very small and not even notices once we showed up.

Call Congress and the Clinton and Obama campaign every day to end the war.

From http://www.peace-action.org/campaigns/iransupp.html

Call the Congressional switchboard at 202-224-3121 or toll free at 1-800-903-0682 and ask to be connected to your Representative. You may use the sample script below when talking to Congressional staff.

Hello, I am a constituent of Representative______. I live at_______. I am calling because I want to make sure that there is language in the Supplemental Appropriations bill requiring President Bush to get Congressional authorization before taking military action against Iran. Experts as diverse as Henry Kissinger, the Israeli intelligence agency Mossad, and the bipartisan Iraq Study Group have all argued that the U.S. needs to talk to Iran, not rush to war, I hope that Representative______ does all that they can to heed this sound advice. Thank you for your time, please pass my message along to the Representative and keep me posted on any further developments with this important issue.

Thanks!
