Crushing Bush lies smashing success at rally in valley

This should be on the Daily Show. What a great fundraiser
It has been amazing. I watched all the network morning news show and there was not one mention of the protests. One show that had Rumsfield on it did mention the 2nd anniversary of the war. The 2nd anniversary of the troops dying, and the killing of thousands of innocent lives. The networks can’t even seem to honor the troops who have died. Instead we get to see Congress hold a hearing on steroid use, and debate on a bill to keep a woman alive who is in a vegetative state. Bush is rushing back to D.C. to make sure this one woman is not let to die…because it is the moral thing to do. Yet the news ignores how many lives have been lost in Iraq and Afghanistan. How many kids are starving right now? How many people will die in the US this week because they can’t afford to go to the hospital?

As I click through each city on the Indymedia site, I see hundreds and in some cities thousands who took to the street. I see incredible signs and street theater. Many events had Iraq Vets and family members speaking out against this war. Yet, what is on the news? Terri and whether or not they will replace her feeding tube. One severally brain damaged life vs. hundreds of thousands.

I hope many people plan to call and write the networks and the next rally/march is held in front of the TV, radio, and newspaper buildings/offices.
