Having lost the election, folks are trying a new form of protest:

On Inauguration day, we don’t need banners, we don’t need signs, we don’t need puppets, we just need people. We’re calling on people to attend inauguration without protest signs, shirts or stickers. Once through security and at the procession, at a given signal, we’ll all turn our backs on Bush’s motorcade and continue through his speech and swearing in. A simple, clear and coherent message.

It could be an effective protest. Of course, judging from how polarized the nation is, it could also result in a bunch of fist fights during the inauguration. I had a similar idea a while back. Instead of the US President, thoguh, I wanted you to turn your back on Hummers.
