Rally report/Videos of peace rally yesterday for Bush's fundraising visit
The rally was great. Easily a thousand people were there; notice how KSL starts off the story by downplaying our numbers and doesn't even mention the other speakers besides Rocky. Rocky Anderson ( http://mayor-rocky-anderson.dailykos.com/ ) delivered a passionate speech. So did Daniel Ellsburg ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Ellsberg ), Sergeant Marshall Thompson ( http://www.democracynow.org/2008/4/22/a_soldiers_peace_iraq_war_vet ), and Kathy Snyder ( http://www.michaelmoore.com/mustread/index.php?id=874 )

This channel, (ABC, I think) did better with the numbers and at least showed Kathy but no Daniel and no Marshall: http://youtube.com/watch?v=7pflMiRG8os
My friend and I handed out several hundred fliers on fair voting reform, Instant Runoff Voting, to the crowd, including three of the speakers and after the rally on the other side of the building, current mayor Ralph Becker.
