Apres Veto Wednesday

In the wake of Bush's veto, I'm leaving today to join a protest group south of here for the Wednesday apres-veto event they have planned. SO this will be the only entry of the day.

FREE SCOTLAND
This week, Scotland and England celebrate the 300th anniversary of their union under the treaty that ultimately created the United Kingdom. But the SNP, capitalizing on widespread dissatisfaction with the 10-year-old Labor government in London and overwhelming opposition to the war in Iraq, is vowing to try to end the union if it wins, pledging to seek a referendum on independence by 2010. Party leaders are waving the prospect of seizing billions of dollars of North Sea oil revenue and turning this hilly region of 5 million people into a prosperous and independent northern European state, like Norway and Finland, with England as a neighbor within the European Union. Enough Scots are buying it — recent polls show the SNP ahead — that leaders of both the Labor and Conservative parties are pulling out the stops and combing Scotland to convince voters that they are citizens of Britain first. (reminds me of Canada...)
