Anti-Surge Protest In Greensboro
Jill Williams was nice enough to send me a number of photographs from yesterday’s anti-surge protest in downtown Greensboro.
If I could’ve made the protest (I was/am as sick as a dog), my sign would’ve been, well, a little different. It probably would’ve read something like this:
20,000 more soldiers for what?
A death-wish assault on Sadr City?
Training a United Iraqi Army?
Guarding more Halliburton convoys?
Or to buff W’s huge ego and faded legacy?
I need to work on my brevity… and incorporating links into signs, somehow.
UPDATE: Joe Killian has a great behind-the-scenes take on the protest, including the moronic signs of the day.

It’s all just so damned predictable - like an apple falling from a tree.
the war? the surge? the protests? the signs? all of the above?
the war. the surge.
yeah… pretty much.
