BREAKING! Activists Occupy Frist's Office

Submitted by bob fertik on Thu, 2006-04-27 19:34. Activism | Cindy Sheehan | Nonviolent Resistance

Urgent: call Senator Frist's office at 202-224-3344 and demand that he meet with the Iraqi women.

David Swanson just called from Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist's office to report that he and a group of women activists are occupying the office to demand a meeting with Senator Frist to end the U.S. occupation of Iraq.

The activists include three Iraqi women who testified at this morning's Out of Iraq hearing:

Dr. Dahlia Wasfi
Aseel Albanna
Faiva Al-araji (right)

They are joined in the protest by:

Cindy Sheehan
Ann Wright
Medea Benjamin
Gael Murphy

The Iraqi women want to meet with Frist today because they are leaving the U.S. tomorrow. They represent the 82% of Iraqis who want the U.S. out of Iraq.

18. DU artists, we could use some visual aids: Chicken Hawks hiding from women

It might be good to give Americans a visual image to hold in their minds of how their leaders cower.

Republicans seem willing to spend outrageous sums to create photo ops. There is a reason: images have impact.

If they choose to continually run from women with legitimate grievances, we best be showing side of them!

[kpete]

20. Woman with legitimate grievance

[havocmom]

26. But we need to see a graphic illustrating Frist and others hiding from her

She looks so dangerous and all...

25. I just called

I asked if the Senator was going to meet with the women. The guy said that the ladies left. They were very peaceful but that the Senator had a very important meeting he could not miss. I asked him what that meeting was because 85,000 people were just dying to know - Senator Frist was meeting with Josh Bolten.

[katinmn]

30. Well, he's still going to get about 500 phone calls

I know a lot of us sent this out, it went out to other blogs....

:evilgrin:

[blogslut]

31. Call away

Don't forget to ask how the Senator's meeting went with Bolten. Might want to ask if any Democrat Senators were at that meeting...

[RethugAssKicker]

27. Only a few women... these bastards won't pay any attention

to this... especially since Cindys there!

[Sammy Pepys]

28. Humph....

Whoever I talked to said they asked to meet with Frist, were told he had another meeting at that moment, and that they hung around for a bit and left. Said they didn't make a scene or anything.

[blogslut]

29. And guess who Frist was in a meeting with?

Josh Bolten

[Maraya1969]
