"the only bush I trust is mine"

That's what one girl wrote on her pink banner at yesterday's rally in Los Angeles.
Other signs included: Draft the Bush Twins, Stop the Bushit, How did Our Oil get under Their Soil, Saddam Hussein = Unelected dictator, Bush = Unelected dic, One Regime Change Deserves Another, etc.
The rally started at Hollywood and Vine and ended at the recruiting station on Sunset and La Brea. Pictures are available if you click on "More."

This Bush effigy would later be at the very front of the rally. Notice the oil containers in his ears.

The march was supposed to start at 1, but didn't get going till about 1:30.

This is Los Angeles after all, and a rally wouldn't be complete without something like this.

The Los Angeles Times said there were about 30,000 people. Judge for yourself (photo George Wilhelm).

I proudly carried this placard on Saturday's peace march in Glagow!

And it's true!
