Anti-War Protest in DC



Queenie's Daughter proudly took a Greyhound bus to DC to protest the War.
Her morning began in Friendship Heights where she dropped in on a old high school buddy. From there she went to the protest, walked around, checking out the people, places and things. QD didn't go to the National Book Fair but did check out the pictures at the Phillips Collection.
Finally,QD met a friend at a local watering hole, quenched herself, and attended the post rally concert.

Here are QD's observations.
1) The anti-war crowd was either young or old and not thirtysomething.
2) The cops were exceedingly polite.
3) The "Luncheon of the Boating Party" was on tour and not at home at the Phillips.
4) Chevy Chase has changed beyond recognition and is even fancier than before.
5) The Concert for Peace and Justice was run like a PBS telethon.

Do those observations seem a little unfocused? Does it seem like if QD had stuck to one topic and really elaborated on it that it would have been more effective? Does it seem that QD's observations were vague and superficial? Yes. Well. Then QD has made her point.

If there is one thing that the current administration is good at, it is staying on message.

Liberals are too convoluted.
