So, I'm going to DC for the 40th Anniversary of the MARCH ON THE PENTAGON, to do it all over again. And I'm taking as many of my Florida neighbors that can make it.
We are going to fill the Amtrak train to DC. We are filling every empty airline seat to DC. We are filling cars and vans and then renting more cars and vans, all of us sporting a Florida Tag and heading to DC. There will be a long line of American Patriots along Interstate 95. From Miami and Key West. From the Gulf Coast to the Panhandle going East, then North, ever North.
And we will join the hundreds of thousands more coming from 150 organizing centers across OUR America. We will take our silly signs, chant our childish chants, and cross the Potomac to the Pentagon. To tell them again, STOP THE WAR. NOW!
Will anyone even notice? Will it make a difference? Will it change a damn thing?
Yeah, it will change me. Just me. I'll know.
I will have done the best that I knew how to do. I will be able to mourn the loss of each life, Iraqi, American, British, all of them, dead or wounded, with a clear honest conscience.
I saw a holocaust and tried to stop it. Would that we all could say the same.
