What's wrong with this? You should be allowed to pick your audience. Do you for a minute thiink that the Clinton administration didn't practice same?

They didn't. And the ACLU would have gotten involved then, too, if they had. Those protesting at a Bush doodah are sent far away to a marked protest area, and the comments by the protesters have always been "every area in this country is a protest zone!" Prior presidents followed standard security protocol, but didn't have the whole damn area cleared of those who objected to what they were doing.

Out of site, out of mind.

It's all part of delusion maintenance.

Ayuh, gotta maintain that delusion.

"Moore is a genuine populist, but what he can't deal with is the unpleasant possibility that Bush, as people used to say of Nixon, has made a shrewd assessment of the lack of virtue and curiosity in the American public. A lot of Americans still admire the ignorant, smirking, chest-out, crotch-forward triumphalism."
