Good point. I'm busy right now doing support for people in New Orleans and I'm looking for a job. Throw some resources my way and I'll organize something better. ;-)

ANSWER supposedly spent $50,000 on buses.

We've raised less than $1200 to support the Infosop organization.

We managed to raise over $5000 to directly support activists and medical people doing good stuff in New Orleans.

My conclusion is that if people want to support the antiwar movements, thier best investment is on local grassroots campaigns, not on some organization that spends thousands on buses to get people to Washington to hear Brian Backer give some speech.
