Neil & I participated today in a march from the White House to the Supreme Court to the Capitol building in orange jumpsuits & hoods.

Read about it here.

When we got to the Capitol we had to quickly take off the suits to avoid arrest. 28 protesters were arrested outside & 14 were inside pretending to be on a tour & were also arrested for a demonstration the led in the Rotunda.

One year ago President Obama issued an executive order to close Guantanamo & promised it would be completed in one year. He must keep this promise.

    Excuse me? Arrested for demonstrating?? On what grounds??? Not to respond with a cliche, but what country is this again?

    Demonstrating without a permit. We live in the U.S. of A. Yikes!

    I think you should all be arrested by the Fashion Police. Those orange suits are a crime against fashion decency.

    I think Neil’s is pretty great. Somehow he ended up with the booty jumpsuit.
