Casting Rejects From "Mad Max", "Hair" To Tour America
The Commies are coming: Domestic terrorist front group International ANSWER is staging "a day of action" on March 19th (and, in fact, much of the surrounding week) to mourn the second anniversary of freeing millions of Iraqis from human slavery.

We will demand:
* Bring the Troops Home Now
* End Colonial Occupation from Iraq to Palestine to Haiti & Everywhere
* Stop the threats against Iran & Cuba
* Health Care, Education, Housing, and a Job at a Living Wage Must be a Right!

Protest Warrior will hopefully be all over this like Michael Jackson on a preteen fashion mag, but while this promises to be almost as huge an event as February 17th's "Day of Outrage" over the convicton of Lynne Stewart, that doesn't mean you shouldn't click here to see if they'll be in a city near you, and come out to express your alternative point of view. It'd certainly be hilarious if the counter-protestors outnumbered the protestors. Here's their plans for what are traditionally the three nutjob Meccas when protest weekend rolls around:

Chicago:
DATE: Saturday, March 19
EVENT: 12 noon gather at Oak St. & Michigan Ave. followed by a march down Michigan Ave. to Federal Plaza.

San Francisco:
DATE: Saturday, March 19
EVENT: Gather at 11am at Dolores Park march to the Civic Center

New York City:
DATE: Saturday, March 19
EVENT: Rally at 1pm at Hasbrouck Park (near SUNY New Paltz) and march through town. Rep. Maurice Hinchey will be the featured speaker.

Maurice Hinchey, you'll recall, is the guy who thinks Karl Rove planted the CBS memos. Maybe counter-protestors could wear actual tin-foil hats, maybe carry some "The Truth Is Out There, Maurice" signs, assuming the actual protestors aren't already doing that sort of thing and being dead serious about it.

There are at least three actual tinfoil hats in this picture, taken during the inauguration.

As long as the ski-masked Black Bloc set keeps the looting, arson, and vandalism to a minimum this time, it should make for high entertainment.
