I went down to the Camp Casey candle light vigil this evening. I think Cindy Sheehan spoke but it was hard to tell. There was a huge mob holding candles surrounding her and you couldn't get close. The speakers were simply standing in the middle of a field with no stage or platform. They used a bullhorn for the PA and it wasn't very loud.

I hung around on the outside of the crowd and watched people. It was a very impressive sight. I don't have a very good camera and so I couldn't really capture how it appeared. The Crosses and boots all had candles next to them and there were hundreds and hundreds of people in the crowd holding candles. They would all raise them when they agreed with something the speakers said.

This guy has been protesting for peace across from the White House since 1981. I think that was the year Casey Sheehan was born. He has maintained a 24/7 vigil there for the past 24 years. It seemed sort of unfair for this guy to go unrecognized when Cindy was getting all the glory a couple of blocks down the street.

So, he did not join in with the Camp Casey folks?

Thanks once again for the pix, the candles must have added to the atmosphere.

No, they can't leave their spot of they will lose it. They have been there 24 years. He couldn't go.
