What's this I hear about military troops being in D.C. on January 20th?! |
|
I actually heard this on the radio on Monday but just now remembered it. It may have been on "Free Speech Radio News," but I unfortunately can't recall.
The gist of the story was that the Bush Junta plans to have thousands of soldiers in the streets of D.C. on Inauguration Day, along with thousands of police officers being flown in from all over the country. Sounds like they realize how many people hate their guts.
Welcome to Dubya's America: The Sequel! :scared:

8. A very excellent point |
|
there are as many anomalies in this administration as were in the election itself.

5. So will they be goose-stepping past the White House? |
|
Maybe have tank battalions clanking down Pennsylvania Avenue in front of the reviewing stands?

This must be a first, I don't think this was even done during the CIVIL WAR!!! Gods help us, as dangerous as it sounds, we REALLY should get protesters out to get attention to that.

11. I read they haven't done it since 1972. |
|
But that it wasn't too uncommon before that.
I don't remember the specifics of the article.

7. They'll make sure he can walk the street this time.... |
|
Sadly, I fear those of us with eggs, pretzels, or other tokens of homage will be unable to get within throwing range. So much for expressing opposition to the regime in DC in January.

9. But would they suspect that a mother with toddler |
|
in tow would remove a full diaper from her progeny and pitch it at George?
Or 100 mothers, for that matter?

14. If we had a propaganda system like them, we could....... |
|
make them think we were going to have 500,000 show up and they would have three divisions there to fight us.....and then no one would show up...They would look like fascist pigs.
