Topless anti-war protest near White House

Saturday, September 29, 2007

Anti-Iraq-war protesters have staged a small, but eye-catching, demonstration at the White House.

Five women and one man from the group Breasts not Bombs staged the event in Lafayette Park across from the White House. And it wasn't the bombs that were on display.

Spokeswoman Janine Boneparth says going topless is just another way to oppose the Iraq carnage. She says what's obscene is not the protest, but President Bush's conduct of the war.

Nearby Secret Service agents made no move to intervene.
