Jonn from This Ain't Hell was there to take photos and video, including one of a phony Army Ranger. He also noticed some of the LaRouche nuts with their Obama-As-Hitler signs. But, since this wasn't a tea party, it didn't make the news, nor the radar of a certain "blogger" (Charles "Icarus" Johnson of Little Green Falsehoods) who uses the LaRouchers to slander Tea Parties as neo-Nazi rallies.
From Jonn's photos and video, I have to say I've seen more people in a men's room at a Jerry Jeff Walker concert than the motley crew of Islamofascist supporters assembled in front of the White House today.
ABC News 7 was there also and reported more than 50 people were there, many from out of town. There were arrests made as well, including Mama Moonbat, Cindy Sheehan.
In a defiant display with hopes of influencing the president’s plan on Afghanistan, hundreds of people marched from McPherson square chanting and holding signs. Some chained themselves to the White House fence, demanding we leave Afghanistan now and wondering aloud, where’s the “change” they were promised.
“I hope he's not in the business of ignoring us because if he's about the business of ignoring, it's going to spell his downfall,” said Bill Dyson of Connecticut.
Wayne Young and his wife came all the way from Denver.
“We shouldn't be the world policemen. We're not authorized to do that, that's what the U.N. is for."
And a terrible job they do, I must add.
We haven't been successful in the past you know,” said Cindy Sheehan. “We've been out here with hundreds of thousands of people. That was a different time. We're hoping if we do create a mass movement that we can affect policy.”
Moments later, she was handcuffed and carted off with a bus load of other protesters.
Hopefully, to get hosed down.
Freepers were there to counter-protest as well.
