[Peace-discuss] AWARE table

[jencart]

Hmmm..... Letters to the editor using AWARE's name and admiring the bright yellow signs which say REGIME CHANGE BEGINS AT HOME, VOTE OUT BUSH - CHANEY.  Displaying, selling, taking orders for the same signs @ the AWARE table.... I'd call that a position, wouldn't you?  It's certaining different from PEACE IS PATRIOTIC, UNITED FOR PEACE, NO IRAQ WAR, etc
