Protesters rattle rush hour I happened to catch the tail end of the march. It's nice to see some level of activism in such a blue-collar town, but I decided yesterday that regardless of my ambivalence about the war on Iraq, that I really don't like people that are irrationally deep on either side; from pro-war rallies by ClearChannel (need a war to help your ratings, perhaps?), to pacifists that would be content to do nothing until it was already far too late. I just think of Lili Taylor's fantastic character on Six Feet Under sitting on the floor of her kitchen, pleading with the ants that have invaded her home to "please leave." Just a little bit of moderation and understanding on both sides, people... is that so hard?
