[lbo-talk] Crawford protest

[Marta Russell]

The Waco Tribune-Herald reports: "Authorities arrested five 
protesters Saturday who were among a group of about 100 in Crawford 
attempting to demonstrate on the road leading to the Western White 
House. President [sic] Bush and Australian Prime Minister John Howard 
had spent Friday and Saturday in meetings and relaxing at the ranch. 
The group had traveled to Central Texas in a caravan of about 30 
vehicles after an Austin rally protesting the policies of the Bush 
administration. The group was a conglomeration of several smaller 
groups with disparate beefs with the federal government on issues 
from workers' rights to the environment. All, though, were set to 
protest the recent war in Iraq."
