About 450 march...
I attended this event with my parents. It was entertaining and one charged, emotional speaker roared, to the delight of everyone there, about the mismanagement and utter immorality of U.S. foreign policy.

I saw several funny signs. One read: "Bush/Cheney04 Don't change horsemen mid apocolypse." Another one carried by some young self-described sodomites called for Bush to ..."pull out, like your father should have." That one really made my mother laugh.

Beating drums and carrying signs calling the Iraq war unjust and President Bush a liar, about 450 people held a rally yesterday marking the one-year anniversary of the war.

The event drew a mix of people — from teenagers wearing tie-dyed shirts and peace signs to older people in somber clothing as a sign of mourning for victims of the war, to middle-aged veterans wearing caps and pins from their old uniforms.
