Anti war protest in DC now. I was listening via cell phone

My niece is in DC marching in a protest saying they are marching from WH to the capital. Chanting "get up, get down, we can't end this war with all these bozo's around". (16th to first street)

"What does democracy look like, this is what what democracy looks like" and mostly "Troops out now". She says there are thousands but can't say how many, all the streets are closed down and there are many different groups represented there.

It was very exciting to hear those in DC speaking the words I wish I could say right to the presidents face.

1. Just hope the troops don't incite violence

and hope the protesters remain peaceful

2. Evidently they are getting a bit loud and rowdy

and the police are getting closer and closer and chasing people but she didn't know why, so she left.
