The crowd went crazy when we filed into the rotunda of the Wisconsin State Capital that evening, all of them cheering our small group on.<\/p>\n<p>As we each took a brief turn speaking, the entire crowd roared its approval and the sound was deafening; you could&#8217;ve heard the noise miles away from the rotunda. Except for the RNC protests, I&#8217;ve never witnessed this kind of approval of our message before.<\/p>\n<p>Driving home that night, I felt that the crowd response was a validation of all that we had been trying to do since IVAW was formed too many years ago, a repudiation of the past where we had been accused of being unpatriotic, and that people finally got our message. And it felt good.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It&#8217;s nice to see that IVAW can keep it&#8217;s focus on veteran issues and not get mixed up in something that has absolutely nothing to do with veterans. Oh, wait, I got that backwards.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of IVAW, Zedechek sends us a photo of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=21391\">Robynn Murray<\/a> on the red carpet of the Oscars the other day;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/30.media.tumblr.com\/tumblr_lhaul7W5b01qz9qooo1_400.jpg\" alt=\"Robynn Murray\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TSO sent me a link from the Iraq Veterans Against the War website to a report &hellip; <a title=\"IVAW in WI\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=22469\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">IVAW in WI<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8,37],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-22469","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-antiwar-crowd","category-ivaw"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22469","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=22469"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22469\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=22469"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=22469"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=22469"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
