The San Francisco skyline that will be in the background will be filled with war planes, the Navy's Blue Death terrorizing San Francisco. We hope this little peace show will include condemning the Navy's Blue Death strafing of San Francisco with its illegally low flights over heavily populated San Francisco, wasting tax dollars and oil, making terrible noise, all to glorify war. Since Cindy Sheehan is running for Congress in San Francisco, Nancy Pelosi's district, we expect a statement from Cindy Sheehan condemning this military recruiting show that is taking place Oct 4, 5, 6 and 7, 2007 in the San Francisco Bay Area, and especially over the hospitals and homes, schools and businesses of the City of San Francisco. This is the litmus test peace issue in San Francisco, and these Blue Death terrorism flights are opposed by all people over age 40 and all educated people under 40, the regular voters of San Francisco. This whole horror show exists to recruit cannon fodder for the military so the war profiteers can maximize their profits, the only reason the military exists.

you can dig through this weird post to the calendar to read more

The above link is to an example of an ineffective post to indybay. Each post to the calendar should only be about one event (however, you could link to one newswire post that lists all of them). Each post to the calendar should have its own title. For example, "Berkeley: Beach Impeach IV With Cynthia McKinney." Nice, short, and to the point. However, since it's about the same event as the post that I'm commenting on, only one of them would have been made into one of the redlinks that you see at the top of the page, and only one of them would have been a redlink on the front page.

Just a lil' fyi from an annoyed editor who has also done a lot of publicity for events.

I'm glad to hear that this event will be in a different location from the previous Beach Impeaches. I'm sure that these events are fun, but there need to be more innovations besides just moving the event or having celebrities participate. It would be funny if somehow the military pilots could see the "Impeach" and got distracted... but I'm sure that if that happened, we'd never find out.
We are 100% volunteer and depend on your participation to sustain our efforts!
