ANTI-LETTERMAN DEMONSTRATOR, ACROSS FROM THE ED SULLIVAN THEATER, 6/16/09, SHORTLY BEFORE 5:00 P.M.

You know, nothing says "concern for the well-being of adolescent girls" like an "I'd Rather Be Waterboarding" button, don't you agree? (Click to enlarge and read the button.)

This protest was right by my office. The headline at MTV News is "Anti-David Letterman Protest In New York Draws Approximately Three Dozen People," while CNN said, "Letterman protest draws more media than activists." Both of those are pretty much correct.

There's a real PUMA presence in this "movement," by the way -- rally organizer Anna Barone has PUMA ties, as does BettyJean Kling, one of the demonstators quoted in the New York Daily News story about the rally. Maybe John "Mr. Greta Van Susteren" Coale's plan to have Sarah Palin help retire Hillary Clinton's debt wasn't completely crazy.
