"I think of Soltan as the Maureen Dowd of the blogosphere,
except that Maureen Dowd is kind of a wrecking ball of a writer,
and Soltan isn't. For the life of me, I can't figure out her

…rallied at American University this evening, while a trustee meeting went on in the building behind them. The students held signs that said “Hail to the Thief.”

UPDATE: Details and photos from The Eagle, the AU student newspaper, here.




Oh, and UD's favorite part of The Eagle's story:

The students who organized the event were CAS senior Megan Linehan, SPA senior Liz Best, CAS senior Maeve Reed and School of International Service sophomores Alexandra Steepanuk and Caroline Behringer.


Ladies all.
