not many protests showed up
According to another board, there was hardly any protesters showed up at the parade and it was mainly Bush supporters, I dont believe that at all, so for the people that went, what was it like at the parade?

2. All they have to do is turn on the TV
Large groups of protestors on every channel. Idiots.

3. Not many showed up - or not many were allowed in?
The Bushistas were pretty focused on making sure the dis-rup-tors weren't allowed near him.

4. Tune in C-SPAn 2, see for yourself.
There are a lot of them, but I can't estimate how many.

5. I saw on ABC that they are putting up baracades...
and are only letting people in 2 or 3 at a time so that there is a 3 block line of people waiting to get onto the parade route

8. Just saw the parade route bleachers on CBS
Nobody's there. Nobody wants to pay $15, the cost to get a bleacher seat. Geeez, now you have to pay for a seat on the chimp's parade route.
