Oh brother

NYT on Saturday's march (WP had a similar 'graph):

As they gathered before the march, the protesters met what several veterans of the antiwar movement described as an unusually large contingent of several hundred counterdemonstrators. Many were veterans in biker jackets who said they had come to protect the nearby Vietnam Memorial, citing rumors that had circulated among veterans groups that the demonstrators planned to deface it.

Yeah--those Codepink ladies are notorious.

Sad to see the Vietnam memorial turned into a fetish. As if we needed further proof that war fucks people up.
