Saddam's Streakers Wimped Out!
The SF Chronicle's coverage of yesterday's leftist mixer has this blurb:
The usual snapshot of a San Francisco-style protest includes naked marchers, dreadlocks and a whiff of marijuana in the air. But in this family-heavy crowd, even a group called Unreasonable Women Baring Witness who promised to shed their clothes suited up in garbage bags instead.
Garbage bags - how apt! I hope they were Hefty bags.

And yes, the "black bloc" was there:
Police said the demonstration was largely peaceful until the very end, when a group of as many as 225 demonstrators stormed through the Financial District, painting graffiti on some buildings, smashing the windows of a Starbucks and kicking over newspaper racks to block traffic.
Real street fighting men, fer sure.
