Don't curse the darkness, light a candle.

If women are not free, then no one is free.

Operation Save America will be trying to command the national spotlight with their messages of hatred and intimidation: “Homosexuality is a sin.  Islam is a lie.  Abortion is murder.”

“From Jackson to the White House, Women Will Not Be Slaves!  No Theocracy!  Drive Out the Bush Regime!”
All Out for Jackson, Mississippi:
July 15 – 22
October 5 th, Nation-Wide Protest: “Bring the Bush Program to a HALT!”

Keep the Doors Open: To the Last Abortion Clinic in Mississippi, To Women, and To a Future Without the Bush Regime! Join with the Drive Out the Bush Regime Summer Bus Tour in Jackson, Mississippi, July 15-22.  Operation Save America (formerly Operation Rescue) has plans to set out to shut down the last abortion clinic in Mississippi and “mark the beginning of the end of abortion in Jackson, in the state of Mississippi, and in America.”This fanatical fundamentalist Christian movement is not just a fringe group of extremists.  They are the storm troopers of a theocratic ideology and program that has, under the Bush regime, increasingly been established in the halls of Congress, in the judiciary, and in the White House itself.

What is at stake is the future of women here and all over the world.  Without the ability to control their reproduction women cannot be free.  If women are not free, then no one is free.

Operation Save America will be trying to command the national spotlight with their messages of hatred and intimidation: “Homosexuality is a sin.  Islam is a lie.  Abortion is murder.”

Let the country instead see defiant, uncompromising, active women and men saying, “From Jackson to the White House, Women Will Not Be Slaves!  No Theocracy!  Drive Out the Bush Regime!”

We can already see now that the ’06 election will offer no real choice on women’s right to their own destinies.  Leading Democrats have declared that of abortion is a “tragic choice” and launched a new strategy of running vehemently anti-choice candidates like Casey from Pennsylvania.

As it says in the Call for the World Can’t Wait, “This whole idea of putting our hopes and energies into ‘leaders’ who tell us to seek common ground with fascists and religious fanatics is proving every day to be a disaster, and actually serves to demobilize people.”

The future is being decided.  Be in the streets!  Be counted!

Drive Out the Bush Regime!

Bohemian Grove is a 2000 acre ancient redwood grove in Monte Rio California owned by the San Francisco Bohemian Club. For over 130 years the power elite of the corporate, banking, military and political circles have gathered for two weeks in July to play in the woods and celebrate themselves by watching elaborate plays, drinking, feasting, story telling, and listening to "lakeside chats" from their peers.

Since 1980 a growing coalition of peace and social justice groups have worked to expose these powerful Bohemians and their global connections. This year's protest sponsors include: A.N.S.W.E.R. Coalition, S.F. Bohemian Action Network, Green Party of California, International Indian Treaty Council, Peace and Justice Center of Sonoma County, Project Censored and United Farm Workers
