Blast from the past
Just when the Stop Bush march was starting to seem like ancient history (was it really only two weeks ago?) here comes, of all places, the Philadelphia City Paper with a story on the protests and our role in them. A decent little article, in my highly unbiased opinion:
Traditionally, expats have been regarded as having chosen to remove themselves from the domestic political life of the U.S. in favor of living and paying tax elsewhere. However, Expats Against Bush, with no official political affiliation, is maneuvering its way through international protests, preaching to expats, while having the inadvertent effect of influencing how foreign electorates regard their leaders.Well, I think that might be slightly overstating things, but I like to think we're able to at least make our presence felt.
