Bring on the noise!!!

Bang your pots & pans, honk your horn and scream your heart out!

This demonstration coincides with the State of the Union address.

Drown him out!

This list will be updated in the following days.

1. I'm gonna go.....
But do they always have to have a poetry reading?

I mean, most of the poets I hear at these kind of rally's write poems that get to the point after about two minutes but keep on going for another ten...

I know they don't get paid by the word....

The things we put up with to protest Bush....

"But do they always have to have a poetry reading?"

I've been saying similar things since I went to some anti war rallies.

It's time we got out of the 60's mentality. I'm no hippie.

3. Cindy Sheehan to be in DC for the State of the Union!
Washington DC: In DC, we will gather as close as we can to the scene of the impending lies:

http://worldcantwait.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=578&Itemid=208

We will be on the west side of the Capitol, around and in front of the reflecting pool. The Press will be parked along 3rd Street and along the South Side of the Capitol (Independence). Cindy Sheehan and Ann Wright will speak to us (and them) at 8 pm; they will be followed by other speakers (the Rev. Yearwood and Doug Nelson, an Vietnam War vet) and then at 9, the main event will begin:

Picture a marching band/brass ensemble, a drum circle, a choir, tap dancers, a rock ensemble, hip-hop poetry, other spoken word, hootenany, African, Asian, Irish glorious soaring rhythmic, each beginning and doing a few minutes in sequence, followed by overlapping moments, followed by at least 30 minutes of jazz-like improv, call and response, followed by one fully stunning long-held harmonious wall of sound that rises to the heavens.

The whole main event lasts 50 minutes, from 9-9:50. It’s possible the media might be roused from their hypnotic stance to report on it.

If you are interested in either helping with logistics or performing, or can help us get great performers, please email Karen Bradley at Karen@democracycellproject.net or call 202-669-3927.

4. And when * talks about 'tort reform' (limiting amounts companies
can pay on verdicts set by citizen jurors)

I'll be yelling about limiting the amount companies can pay lobby lawyers
