This looks like a great opportunity to protest the war in an action aimed specifically at Congress... it's also downtown at noon on a workday, when the "silent majority" will be around to see it.
The action has been called for this Thursday, so there is not a lot of time to organize. So please forward far & wide, let's try and get a big crowd out to this thing!
