Well, tomorrow is ANSWER<\/a>‘s and IVAW<\/a>‘s “Mass” march against the war. They plan on meeting up at the White House at noon from all I can gather and meandering along Pennsylvania Avenue to the Capitol for their “Die-In”. The Gathering of Eagles<\/a>, Free Republic<\/a>\u00c2 and Protest Warriors<\/a>\u00c2 will be lining their route.<\/p>\n

GOE plans on a rally at 9am on the National Mall near 7th Street<\/a>. Protest Warriors will be protecting the Navy Memorial from the same type of injustice that has been done to it in the past.<\/p>\n

Yours truly plans to arrive at the Farragut North Metro Station (on the Red line) about 10 am (after my morning bike ride and my SOS breakfast at the Walter Reed mess hall) and I’ll get ya’all some pictures of the hairy-legged crowd as I walk about a half-mile to the good guys. I’m trying to find an internet hotspot near the march route, but I’ve not been successful so far, so ya’all might hafta wait until I get home before I get the pictures up on the blog. But I’ll take my laptop just in case.<\/p>\n

On my quick recon around the city today, I haven’t seen the usual hippie-types anywhere. Usually I see them straggling in from the bus station and the train station all day long, but they’ve been noticably absent today. I get the impression that Kokesh<\/a>‘s expectation for 4,000 die-in volunteers might be a little ambitious.<\/p>\n

I’ll grant that they may have lots of buses show up at the last minute, but, as I said, this pre-protest day is a whole lot quieter than the ones I’ve seen in the past.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, I have seen several motorcycles flying American flags cruisng the city. But anyway we’ll see tomorrow.<\/p>\n

If anyone is planning to link up with us tomorrow (I have two so far that have expressed an interest), you can catch up me at Farragut North Metro Station or at the Navy Memorial. I’ll email my cell number if\u00c2 necessary. Keep watching this space for photos!\u00c2<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
