Protest: U.S. Economic Crisis Fueled by Iraq War Thursday, May 15, 4:30 to 5:30 p.m.
2550 University Avenue West (University Avenue and Highway 280), St. Paul.
Protest in front of the office of Senator Norm Coleman. "Fund Human Needs Not War! End the Iraq War and Occupation! Bring the Troops Home Now!" The war in Iraq is currently costing U.S. taxpayers $12 billion each month. Soon the U.S. Congress will be considering an additional appropriation of up to $172 billion dollars for the continuation of the U.S. war and occupation. The reasons given by the U.S. government for the Iraq war have long ago been shown to be lies and deceptions. We must send a clear message to Congress that we want them to stop funding this illegal and immoral war, to bring the troops home now, and to let the people of Iraq determine their own future.

2. I have a friend who works in the same building |
|
And she's never seen Colman but she and her coworkers have sure seen the protestors. She said most of the time they are a nuisance and they just piss off the people who work in the building. She's a Democrat, too, so it's not an opinion from some cranky wing-nut. In other words, these little impromptu protests may make the protestors feel better but they are probably not getting through to the intended target. YMMV.
I'd be curious to know how it went and if anyone saw Coleman.
