March for Women's Lives Photos
Edited on Mon Apr-26-04 08:49 AM by Skinner
I just posted the shots I took at the march today in the Activism forum, I'll pin this thread here for a while.

Quick links:

Thread 1 | Thread 2 | Thread 3 | Thread 4 | Thread 5 | Thread 6 | Skinner's Pics

It was an amazing day! Thanks to LynneSin for organizing the delegation and sorting out the banner. Also, the George W. Bush cardboard cutout was a stroke of genius. I think youngred got his picture taken about 500 times carrying that thing around :)

It was great to meet the DUers who took part. I won't name all the names because I know I'll forget someone and I don't want to leave anyone out. I'm sure they'll let you know about it when they get back online.

Edited... thread title. It's been a long day :)

2. I liked the 'Veto Bush' signs and 'Ashcroft/Asshole' crosses
:bounce:

As far as the 'Don't like abortion? Get a Vasectomy' signs go, well, let's just say that I don't have sex and don't plan to until I'm ready to raise a family.;)

6. Thank you, Earl!
I'm sad that Mrs. V. and I couldn't make it. If we'd gone into town, we would both be cripples for a week.

Thanks to Earl for snapping posting the photos; thanks to the amazing LynneSin for organizing our delegation; thanks to everyone who made it.

Well done, DU

20. I'm finding myself gazing at her picture a lot today.

(sigh) That's the kind of woman I should've married. Sadly, I couldn't find one that I wasn't afraid of ... and who liked me enough. That's what I get for "settling" I guess. Or, maybe I just took too long to evolve. :shrug:

16. Appreciative...
...you will find me most appreciative. What a wonderful thing to have happened - I am so glad I finally got to catch it on C-Span last night, well at 1:00 am CST this morning. So I watched from Whoopi all the way to the president of NOW - could stay awake no longer! But the emotion of the event played well across the hours...I could still feel the sister/brotherhood coming across.

I saw the DU banner! Thanks again everyone.

19. Many nice pictures!
Thanks for posting them! I'm glad I got to put a face with the names of DUers. What a good-looking group of people! I'm also glad you guys took pictures of the freepers and posted them. They truly did embarrass themselves (especially the punks with the skateboards and the dude with the marine sign).

I wish I could've been there. :(

Great job everyone! :yourock:

I cannot believe that I wasn't there. I'm so proud of you all for being there. I was thinking of you the whole day. I'm just not walking well enough to have gone. I wanted to be there so much.

29. Great to meet you too!
Shame we didn't get time to hang out, but I gotta say that coming down from Connecticut just to take part in the march was pretty damn impressive. You must have spent more time traveling than you did in DC. Dedication :thumbsup:
