« More children among Gaza dead | Marchers Demand: “Arrest Bush!” » |
from: William Hughes
On Monday, Jan. 19, 2009, hundreds of antiwar activists expressed their outrage over President George W. Bush’s eight warmongering, economically disastrous, torture approving and lawbreaking years in the Oval Office (2001-2009). The good riddance to Bush rally was held at DuPont Circle, in Washington, D.C. David Swanson, cofounder of afterdowningstreet.org, was one of the speakers at the event. He demanded the appointment of a “Special Prosecutor” to bring to the bar of justice the wrongdoers in the Bush-Cheney Gang. After the speeches, the protesters marched to the White House. Once there, they tossed shoes and combat boots at the White House and insisted: “Arrest Bush!” For background, see: http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/node/38908 and http://shoebush.org/.
