Speaking of using kids at protests, my sister was watching a documentary on the Dixie Chicks, called “Shut up and Sing.” A woman was holding a toddler, and a sign, and she was telling her child to say stupid, stupid. Reminds me of the neo-nazis here, dragging little kids around with them. Ugh. Do I think there will be protests when Palin comes to town? Only at people having to purchase a book from the downtown bookstore first. People will protest as I will by not attending. I think we’re too polite to stage a protest, but I guess time will tell.
