The demonstration against John Negroponte at the St. Johsnsbury Academy this morning was unhindered by rain or hecklers and we had a fine, peaceful turn out. I am posting here the speech I gave which is but a poor sample of the many moving and articulate statements that were made. I would like to thank everyone who came out, as well as the respectful police presence and the Academy for their restraint. I would also like to congratulate the class of 2006 on their launch into the world and encourage them to stay active, aware and vocal.
