1. did you meet up with any other DUers ?

glad you got to attend. can't wait to hear more about it tomorrow.

[JohnKleeb]

2. Nah

I posted a thread in the lounge about it and maybe because I had the wrong day intially not much responded. It was a nice day and when I was leavign the subway station I ran in to someone I knew from high schoool too so that was nice. I'll have the details tommorow. I am just so tired right now and at 9 I am gonna watch my tv shows then call it a night. I'll have my full report up by tommorow at around 1 ish.

3. It was Kleeb

I watched it on C-Span. I really liked what Nick Clooney had to say, and I'm glad George let him tell it, boy what a father and son team that is.

How many people were there I couldn't tell by the C-Span overview.

I was doing some research on this and Kerry and I saw that Kerry was the first ever presidential candidate to use the word genocide, to bad he is not the president, The help they need would of been there a year ago.

4. Yeah it was very great

I idnt hear Clooney speak though because my brother wanted to get something to eat.

5. nolie and karendc were there.

[JohnKleeb]

6. Oh yeah

If I had gone alone I would have tried to say hi but I had to watch my brother and his friend. Was pretty cool I really do wish more politicans would talk about this whole issue.

7. Ok going to tell what was up

This was probably the best rally I've been to in a while because I felt the speakers stayed on topic and the wide range of speakers and their unique perspectives on the issue really made it worthwile. Plus there was some lady yelling WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONCENTRATION CAMPS. Other than that it was great because there were so many people there.
