Anti "surge" rally tomorrow in Richmond!!!

MoveOn.org is sponsoring an "EMERGENCY ANTI SURGE RALLY" TOMORROW AT 6PM IN RICHMOND ON 9TH AND BROAD! For readers NOT in the Richmond, Virginia area, click here to locate one of hundreds of other rallies going on around the country tomorrow.

From MoveOn.org:

MoveOn members have already organized hundreds of Emergency Rallies to Stop Escalation in Iraq for tomorrow night. We really need to have a strong turnout at these rallies so the message is heard loud and clear: Escalation is the wrong answer. Can you attend a rally near you in Richmond tomorrow?

Momentum is on our side—263,200 of us have signed the petition and we've made 8,100 calls to Congress opposing escalation and this is just the beginning. The next step is to take our message to the public square with these rallies. All you have to do is show up to the event closest to you—the host will have signs and leaflets to pass out.

Stopping escalation is an important part of a strategy to getting out of Iraq. "Stay the Course" was rejected by the voters. If escalation is repudiated that leaves only one option: a responsible exit.

If any of you fellow bloggers plan to attend, please let me know!

Yep. I love a good rally. Plus, with global warming, it may just be warm.

It's only supposed to be 51 tomorrow, and by 6pm, the sun will be down.

Do you have AIM? I think I emailed you my SN awhile back....
