Megan ~ meganmonkey at the church before the march on Monday 9/26/2005






700 strong to pray for Operation Ceasefire





There were 350 arrest for Civil Disobedience in front of the White House!





It took several busses to transport the protesters for PEACE. The last person arrested was released at 5 AM this morning.






As of last night the polls showed that 63% of America wants All Of Our Troops Brought Home Now !

4. Thanks, zippy890
Yes - we did meet at the Hawk & Dove.

I was only there for a short time because I needed to catch some sleep before my 6AM wake up call. I was one of the Peace Keepers/Security Marshals for the March.

There were far more people than the original estimate. However it was a peaceful day in DC.

2. Thanks for the pics
Cindy Sheehan has become a lightning rod for "this lying war in Iraq"
1,921 soldiers dead {officially}20/30k wounded,100,000 dead iraqi's,
possibly 300,000 wounded,250/300 billion taxpayer dollars and what gets me hot is,Iraq has pumped roughly 1/1.5 billion bbls of oil despite numerous attacks on the pipelines.I want to know where is the
money for those oil sales? Iraq should have at least made 40/60 billion dollars these past 29 months from oil.Now I hear Congress is
putting together another 50 billion dollar package for that lying war.
How do they get away with it and how can we get some accountability?

12. YAY !!! Indeed!
I forgot to tell you that I've stayed in the town where you are now several times. It seems to be the midway point in many of my travels this year.

13. Hello my sister!
:hug:

I have a raging 'ask me anything' thread in the lounge right now, but I need to go to bed soon. JJ says she saw me on the Daily Show (!) so I need to get up in time to watch the rerun :)
