On Civil Disobedience

While you were busy watching 24 hour news coverage on Terri Schiavo, the brain-damaged Florida woman, thousands of people took to the streets this weekend to protest the 2nd anniversary of the Iraq War without much news coverage. Huge protests occurred simultaneously this Saturday in New York City, San Francisco, Chicago, Washington, Boston, Las Vegas, Philadelphia, Reno, Albuquerque, Tokyo, London, Athens, Stockholm, Istanbul, Vancouver, etc...

Makes you wonder why Bush suddenly took a personal interest in one comatosed woman and made sure all focus was on her and not on the thousands and thousands who oppose his war.
