I think the weekend is going to cause a HUGE crowd surge at Camp Casey.
With TV coverage, and the fact that some people cannot get on the road until Friday afternoon, I think the crowd or hundreds will turn into thousands this weekend.

My prediction; They will evacuate the Resident to another locale, though they may not tell us about it when they do.

1. I hope that even if ** rolls the window down on the way to the BBQ, that
Cindy sticks it out there. I know he won't give her a serious answer so she she keep on him.

6. I just read that Bush is flying in and out by helicopter to avoid driving
by her in his limo. So at the very least, she's inconvenienced the Shrub.

3. Maybe he can bunk up with Evil in his undisclosed bunker?
I just heard on AAR that * might have to pass by Cindy to get to his billionaire get together on Saturday night - here's hoping he gets to see how many people are against him and standing by Mrs. Sheehan!

7. Nonsense.
They will just get his "Marine One" helicopter out there, and he'll fly to the BBQ.

10. He'll be able to see them....
the helicopters are supposedly flying within a few miles of them.

If the crowd gets even bigger, even Dimson will get the idea that all those people aren't there for a Boy Scout BBQ down the road.

4. Crowd control is going to become an issue.
They may have to ferry people over in shifts. There really isn't that much room there.

9. I have a worse worry.
I fear that the GOP will salt the crowd with agitators, and try to start a riot or a surge into the "ranch".

12. I know our people are hot, tired, and frustrated. But they aren't
stupid. I don't think they'll fall for it. :)

13. God I hope so...
I just remember the vans full of black masked "anarchists" that started all the shit in Seattle.

Those were government agents.

8. Does anyone remember "Hands Across America"?
How about "Hands Across Crawford" Line the entire roadway, both sides about three deep with people just in a line. Make it so the entire means of egress in and out of that so-called ranch requires anyone and everyone to pass miles of people.

I'm just sorry I can't make the journey myself, it's just not in the budget (neither the time budget nor the financial budget).

15. I like it! And...
I share your budgeting concerns. Wish I could be there in body, not just in spirit.
