People should do this here

A bunch of high school students in Colorado had a sleep over protest, refusing to stop until Republican Party reps met with them:

About 85 Boulder High students camped out in the school library after classes Thursday, saying they wouldn't leave until Republican Party representatives pay them a visit.

Most of the students are too young to vote. But they said they're disgusted with the Bush administration's national debt, military recruitment in schools and disregard for the environment.

Many participants brought sleeping bags and enough food to last through the weekend. The principal OK'd their request to peacefully protest overnight until today, when they expected representatives from the offices of U.S. Rep. Mark Udall, D-Eldorado Springs, and Democratic U.S. Senator-elect Ken Salazar to stop by.


I'd love to see a bunch of high school students do that here but against the federal Liberals. Protest government corruption, the state of healthcare and the military.

UPDATE: Wonkette, evidently, is not at all impressed.
