Friday anti-Bush parade to use New Orleans-style funeral to draw attention

From NBC 5 Chicago. I'm sure the protesters will have very little to say about the the apparent ineptitude of New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin and Louisiana Governor Kathleen Blanco.

A New Orleans-style funeral march is planned for the streets of Chicago Thursday morning as a protest against the government's response to Hurricane Katrina.

The demonstration, organized by a group called "The World Can't Wait," is said to be an expression from people who think the federal government did too little too late. The group says they are demanding change from the Bush administration.

The march is expected to move through the downtown area, complete with coffins, drums and New Orleans jazz.

The march is scheduled to begin at 11:45 a.m. outside the Chicago offices of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, 536 S. Clark St.

Here is the protesting group's web site. File under "Moonbats."
