Regardless of your position on the issue, it is an amazing thing to see the people of this country taking the initiative to voice their opposition to government run health care. The congressional web-site is shut down due to the volume of e-mail from our fellow citizens. Slowly but surely the message is getting to the folks who work for us, that we will not sit idly by.

although im not too politically inclined, this seems like a far better course of action than randomly screaming and stomping like a 5 year old

3 million in Rome, 2 million in Madrid, 2 million in London, 1.3 million in Barcelona, 500,000 in Berlin, 200,000 in Paris, 200,000 in San Francisco, 200,000 in Sydney, 150,000 in Melbourne, 100,000 in Montreal, 100,000 in NYC, 36 million worldwide, including 24 in Antarctica.

And that was just that one day. Protests were held every day from early January to end March.

Oh wait, we don't care what the rest of the world thinks, do we?
