Overpass Signs In Seattle,
Portland: 'Stop Bush Rallys'

Hi Jeff,
 
Apparently there is more to see than just UFOs if you look up once in a while at highway overpasses in Seattle, Portland and Tacoma.
 
I haven't seen or heard anything yet in the regular Northwest media news this information so I am forwarding.
 
I passed a group who apparently had just hung a banner at an overpass over Interstate five today (so thousands of travelers have probably seen by now). The banner said www.stopbushseattle.com
 
Usually its front page news in Seattle if a banner is hung over I-5 usually by some rappeling dare-devil but I doubt this will even make any story or photo. Why? It was a banner by Bush critics. Nothing new right? I was wondering why two patrol cars just moments before had come racing down Madison St. with lights on and were blocking Eastbound traffic. They appeared to be attempting to check out the situation. When I drove by a few minutes later the officers were gone. I assume they left when they assessed the group was harmless and wasn't interfering with traffic (likely as much as they were).
 
I checked the web site out and several organizations including SNOW - Sound Nonviolent Opponents of War are announcing large rallys in Portland, Bellevue, Tacoma and Seattle and drivers are likely to see banners displayed at these city overpasses this week.
 
Small?
 
In Seattle they are stating over 100,000 will be attending Myrtle Edwards Park Aug. 23 at noon for a "Stop Bush" rally and march. (Interestingly this park is located just behind Seattle-Post Intelligencer in downtown Seattle).
 
I don't think this will be small and wonder if the Seattle and Northwest newspapers and media will eventually report news happening right under their noses (or in this case over their heads at overpasses).
 
We'll see. Keep looking up.
