Witness the Birth of the Bushville!
Oh man, I am so approving of this idea right now. Great thinking.March to Bushville-DC on 9/11/05
On 9/11 survivors of Katrina will commit a NONVIOLENT act of Civil Disobedience – building an encampment on the Washington DC Mall.
Spread the word and join us. We will post info here as we progress. It’s up to you to be creative and spread this link: www.bushville.org
See you on the Mall on 9/11.
Bushville-DC:
10,000 Katrina survivors will eventually camp on Bush’s doorstep.
They will camp in the seat of power and media demand truth and action.
They will stay there as long as it takes.
-Through 9/11
-Through the Katrina investigations
-Through the Supreme Court Hearings
On 9/11 Bush will use the flag to try to blind us.
Founding Bushville-DC on 9/11 will keep America’s attention on the criminal negligence of Bush.

Oh man I would SO be there if I could. I'll be there in spirit and support.
I'm considering going there this weekend to see who shows up; I'll bring a camera if I can.
