Anger and outrage can also bring out creativity and humor. Some of our favorite signs being carried at Saturday's anti-war rally:

"It's Nuclear, Not Nucular, You Idiot"

"Stop Mad Cowboy Disease"

"Drunk Frat Boy Drives Nation Into Ditch Again"

"Another Non-Belgian for Peace"

"You Bastards"

"Holy Crap"
