"On August 19, the two major coalitions that have initiated the September 24 anti-war National March on Washington — United for Peace and Justice (UFP) and Act Now to End Racism and War (ANSWER) issued a statement announcing that they had agreed to hold a joint rally followed by a joint march.

Pro-Bush buffoons
"At the pro-Bush rally, there were some heated moments when two members of Protest Warrior, a group that frequently holds counter protests to anti-war rallies, walked in with a sign that read “Say No to War - Unless a Democrat is President.”

"Many Bush supporters only saw the top of the sign and believed the men were anti-war protesters, so they began shouting and chasing the pair out. One man tore up their signs.

"Later Saturday, a few Bush supporters went to the edge of the anti-war camp trying to remove some of the hundreds of white crosses bearing fallen soldiers’ names."
