Who heard about this from the "liberal" media? |
|
I was just sent a link to this story online. It originally happened over the July 4th holiday, and the charges were just dropped about a week ago. I never heard anything about it from any major news outlet. Where is my liberal media??? http://www.wvgazettemail.com/static/stories/2004071346.htmlThis incident really illustrates how right Thom Hartmann is about the growth of fascism here in America. http://www.commondreams.org/views04/0719-15.htm

The Secret Service had been telling local police to sequester anyone displaying an anti-administration message, usually in areas completely out of sight and earshot of Bush. Because the Secret Service agreed with the ACLU that it shouldn’t be doing that, the judge dismissed the case.
“Prior to filing our suit in September, we’d get a couple of confirmed ‘protest zone’ complaints every month,” Walczak said. “After we filed, there were practically none. We had two documented incidents between September and March: one in Little Rock, Ark., and one in Knoxville, Tenn.”
it sounds like they stopped using free speech zones.. what is this?

But like I said in another thread. Bush is now our employer. He works for us! If I feel like being critical about how he's doing his job, I'm damn well gonna let people know. If the conservatives that treat him as royalty don't like it, they can tell Bush to stop taxing me.
