Nationwide Actions 'Declare Peace', Raise Pressure on Congress
by Haider Rizvi

NEW YORK - A nationwide civil disobedience campaign aiming to force the administration of President George W. Bush and the U.S. Congress to end the military occupation of Iraq is now in full swing.

Anti-war demonstrators block a gate to the White House in Washington, Thursday, Sept. 21, 2006, after marching in front of the White House protesting the war in Iraq. Park police officers arrested 34 of the demonstrators after they refused to leave.

More than 500 peace groups and justice organizations from all over the United States have joined the "Declaration of Peace," a week-long comprehensive campaign that calls for a prompt timetable for the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq.

Those who signed the Declaration this week pledged to hold demonstrations, rallies, marches, and vigils in hundreds of cities across the country, which will continue until next Thursday.
I'm trying to pump my depressed arse up to get to one in C-Town, but (luckily?) can't find any.

My next roadtrip looks to be much more fun and relaxing at any rate. A wise man once said to dance away the heartache, so I'm takin' his advice.

  1. None in my area sponsored by that group either, but there are others. I could use some dancing right now. Thanks for the idea. Have fun.

  2. Not sure about the white suit, cuz I prefer him in black...but, when you look up "cool" in the dictionary, Bryan Ferry's picture is there.

    You probably don't feel this way, but, ditto for "sexy voice."

    :)

    Maybe the world just needs a little more Roxy Music. I know I can always use more.

    Definitely brings to mind the phrase...

    Make love, not war.

  4. Hey now! Ya snuck in there on my BG. {-;

    Ferry is foxy music, isn't he? I've always wanted to sing like him; even doing some Metal. The contrast of harsh & smooth really makes an emotional impact on the tunage.


    (ponyja's my word-ver. Cool.)

  8. Hey now Bob. You need a "Gif Animator" and shots of the face from at least two other angles. I bet a Google would come up with a free animator. Not sure how you could manage the other angles though. It might be easier than I'm makin' it sound.

    Don't know who made my Chimpster. I put out a random "thanks to whomever did" occasionally though, cuz I love the li'l guy too and am really glad whomever put it together.

    Thanks for stoppin' by. I think I just read a comment o' yours on POP's site. Or maybe Peacechick Mary's. Been a looong morning, eh.
