The lil ol' Gainesville Sun (NYT affiliate) had a writeup and a big picture on p. 3--AP story claimed "Building and Construction Trades Council of Greater New York." More fallout from the Carpenters leaving the AFL-CIO? Also claimed 15k.

The photo has one prominent sign "We gave peace a chance, we got 9/11! Support our troops!!" Christ.
