...And I wish I had. This week, the United Nations hosted Iranian President Ahmadinejad, and many Iranian-Americans, as well as others, greeted him with well-deserved ill-humor. I didn't see any of the Union Square loonies anywhere in these pics, but there were plenty of people there to make a ruckus. You can view the protests here, here, and here. Michael Moore, Cindy Sheehan, nor any member of International ANSWER or Code Pink were in attendance, according to news reports. However, Sheehan has been quite vocal about the presence of the military in New Orleans. Quoth Cindy, "George Bush needs to stop talking, admit the mistakes of his all around failed administration, pull our troops out of occupied New Orleans and Iraq, and excuse his self [sic] from power."
"Occupied New Orleans". That's worth a chuckle.
