Are YOU coming to OUR Nation's Capital for Jan. 20th events? (link)
Edited on Sun Jan-16-05 06:41 PM by diamond14
Are YOU or your friends/relatives DRAFT-age?

Isn't it time for YOU to STAND UP?

Do YOU believe that bush* is wrong to KILL others, with OUR tax money?

Do YOU want bush* to stop his $ 200 BILLION KILLING, and instead, spend money on JOBS, EDUCATION, HEALTH CARE, OUR SENIORS, OUR VETERANs, and more?


Here's a great link for ride-sharing, free rooms from local volunteers, GREAT events starting Monday, meet good people, make new friends, find activist groups....we'd LOVE to have you join us here in OUR Nation's Capital...STAND UP, while YOU still have the chance....

6. Nope, I have to retain my job
24*7 coverage eliminates some of the best parties. Even if I could get the time off the expense is way too much and big crowds make me claustrophobic.

7. More on DC Anti-War Network rally http://www.dawndc.net/j20
Thanks so much for posting this...so glad so many of you will be coming...

Check out http://www.dawndc.net/j20

If you are in town tonight, definitely check out the DC Guerrilla Poetry Insurgency at Dupont Circle.

Or, if you really want to be involved with getting the nitty gritty on planning, go to the Convergence Center at 39 New York Avenue for the 7 PM spokescouncil meeting. Anyone coming into town early and looking for stuff to do should go there. It's 12,000 square feet, and all I can say is I wish we had a building like that all the time for planning actions.
