The Furious Spinner

I've been saying all along that I thought the "reality" about the murders and rapes inside the Cenvention Center and the Superdome would turn out to be mostly rumor and myth. I think a few bad things probably happened but not to the extent that it's been reported. Let's just look at how many people were crowded together, so inevitably we know some bad shit went down. But for the most part, I believed it would turn out that most people were just trying to get through the night(s) and weren't intent on hurting anyone. Some evidence is now coming out that this view might actually be the correct one. We'll see how it unfolds.

Did you see that Cindy Sheehan was arrested while protesting peacefully outside the White House? I've been gone all day so I don't know if they covered it on mainstream media. CodePink and friends were also there and many were arrested. Michael Moore has a letter from Cindy on his website. Her arrest came after three days of rallies and demonstrations in Washington. I heard a caller on Randi Rhodes say C-Span did not show the anti-war rally in D.C., but he was wrong because I watched it on C-Span as it was happening on Saturday. I had opportunities to participate in events this past weekend, but I just didn't feel like it. So there. 0 comments
