Pictures from an anti-war dud
Yaaawn. My friend Bryan Preston and I went to the moonbat fizzle in Washington, D.C. earlier today. Journalists and camera crews made up one-fifth of the crowd of about 100. (No sign of Susan Sarandon.) I interviewed several protesters, including, yes, Cindy Sheehan–who seemed to have no problem making the long walk from the Lincoln Memorial to the Pentagon despite the recent “injuries” over which she’s apparently suing New York City officials. I asked her about this controversy. Our conversation was interesting.
Bryan is putting together a mini-movie of our little adventure, which we’ll have up soon over at Junkyard Blog.
My favorite encounter was with a man (one of several) who dressed up in an orange Gitmo jumpsuit. He and his play friends marched a few miles with their hands behind their backs and heads covered with hoods. I talked to him while he devoured a fat sandwich after his grueling journey, which he said helped him feel pain and solidarity with the Gitmo detainees. “I really can identify,” he said between bites.
Some pics:

Halloween in springtime (hey, at least they got their peace symbol right)

This is the scraggly assemblage that ended up across the Pentagon…

Michael Berg, father of terror victim Nick Berg, spoke while one of the Gitmo ghoul wannabes knelt in the background…

And what’s a moonbat protest without a few vulgar signs of Bush Derangement Syndrome…


Age of Hooper was also there.
