Peace Organizations to Greet Bush at Coast Guard Academy Graduation
Submitted by Chip on Wed, 2007-05-23 07:01. Activism | Nonviolent Resistance

The Day Newspaper - David Collins Reporter

New London — Dozens of groups from around New England, joining an event planned by two national peace organizations, are setting up a big day of demonstration to coincide with Wednesday's Coast Guard Academy graduation visit by President Bush.

The groups won't venture any crowd-size estimates, but they are making bus, van and carpool arrangements all around the Northeast.

It will start with a march from downtown to a loud rally at the academy gates that is expected to include sign waving, amplified peace music and speeches by parents who have lost children in the war.

They will be joined not only by demonstrators from http://impeachbush.org but by marching scientists from an assortment of colleges in Connecticut, who plan to don their academic robes and carry signs protesting the Bush Administration's science policies.

1. I predict he'll start a sentence with "9/11" and end it with "Iraq"
...but Tony Snow will claim Bush has never said there a connection between the two.
