Let's get this straight. . .I do not agree with the war at all. . . But as my military friends and anyone else will tell you, we have to exhaust our resources to stabilize that country. If we don't, we'll have an even bigger problem on our hands than we have now. . Now concerning the march/protest. . .I think it's a great idea, and citizens have the right to address the government to redress our grievances. . . however, the Presidential Inauguration is not the setting in which to do it. . . I think of it as the person who interrupts the wedding, when the minister asks "If anyone find just cause that these two not be wed in holy matrimony please speak now or forever hold your peace." Or the rude people at graduations who refuse to stop shouting for their "baby", so the next person can walk across the stage. Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, Jr. led young and old people in protest, but they were both organized and they both had respect for decorum. The March on Washington, and the Million Man March (of which I was a participant) were both organized and operated with an agenda, and with respect to decorum. Pick another day and take center stage. Bring a million people to Washington, DC and conduct yourself accordingly. You don't have to like Bush and his positions, but you should respect the office and the title.
