'MOB-sters' Cross The Brooklyn Bridge


NEW YORK (CBS) -- More protestors made their voices heard on Friday morning, ahead of next week’s Republican National Convention. Dozens of women who call themselves 'MOB-sters' took their anti-Bush message to the Brooklyn Bridge.

The group 'Mothers Opposing Bush,' also known as 'MOB,' marched across the bridge with their children and strollers in tow.

They're rallying against president bush's positions on education, healthcare, environment and civil rights. They claim the policies endanger their children's future.

The protesters Friday were equipped with buttons that said "Join the MOB." They also carried diapers, baby food and red, white and blue balloons.

2. See my sig line.

Great grassroots organization, and all they ask is for people to write letters to single moms in swing states.

I just checked, this is a different organization than MMOB (Mainstreet Moms Oppose Bush).

Nevertheless, Babs should have warned him:

NEVER PISS OFF A MOM. NEVER.
