[proud2BlibKansan]

We had a big rally here in KC on Thurs before the debate. It is amazing how Palin just enrages people.

[Maat]

30. Hey, that's my friend, Dave, of San Diego Vets for Peace, in the first photo.

I should have asked everyone what was goin' on Saturday! Great job on the Welcoming Committee!

[Kadie]

31. Excellent!

Tell him they did a great job!

:hi:

[Maat]

40. I will - he did a 'debrief' after he and the guys went to both conventions.

He brought pictures back, and we gathered in Vista, CA. to discuss the whole 'convention' experience.

I'll tell him his efforts are much-appreciated.

:hi:

32. She was in Orange County after this show.

Two friends protested her @ the OC Performing Arts Center. They said there were at least 500 there protesting. Today's OC Ragister said 300. I trust my friends as they are veteran protesters.

Also, not widely being reported - the president of California Chapter of NOW introduced mcpalin in Carson yesterday. WTF!!!! I'm so glad I stopped renewing my membership.

[sce56]

33. Great Job!

And I wonder if they will look at the web site for the VP Granny www.votefortheGILF.com which directs you to the JohnMcSame web site with the GILF herself introducing on video!

[Butch350]

34. I simply love the pictures - I'm gonna pull out the BO DNC speech

...and get even more pumped and motivated!

[Left Is Write]

35. That "price of gas" sign is very powerful.

[renate]

36. I LOVE the one that starts with "Stop Winking"

I don't know why... maybe because it just tickles me to see her called out so succinctly.

[ailsagirl]

39. Me too-- it's so obnoxious!! n/t

[SeattleGirl]

37. Great signs in that crowd!

"Stop winking. Answer the specifics" was probably my fave, though I also liked the "Can I skip the interview" one.

[Kajsa]

38. Excellent!

More than 300 protesters were at her rally in Costa Mesa,
later in the day.

That's substantial for Orange County, CA!

:)

[The Big O]

41. Great Pictures

Nice to see real Americans standing up.

[Lautremont]

42. Has anyone ever noticed that progressive protest signs are much more intelligent, funny

and properly spelled than right-wing ones?

Just thought I'd point that out in case no one had noticed.

[joop]

43. great stuff

I wasn't able to go down. Now I'm even more remorseful about missing it but DANG you all did GREAT!!
