Salt Lake City set the bar high. From now on, wherever bush goes -
Edited on Mon Aug-22-05 11:04 PM by Skip Intro
he should be met by such protests.

Every state, every city.

There is a movement (I am convinced tonight), and it is growing.

America is turning against bush.

There is momentum.


WE are amassing.

And if SLC can get 4,000, its on.

Let the impostor patriots yell and scream about it. There are far more of us.

Every city has a duty now. We have a duty to make sure that wherever bush goes, the people demand his attention, give him no quarter, tell him "enough, get out of OUR house."

Call for resignation. All across the nation. In his face, wherever he goes.

Thank you, SLC!

3. I agree, and we should all send that video out to as many people
as we can because I really, really don't believe that true Americans want our country to be this way. They need to see it for themselves cause they won't see it on TV.

6. He needs to be chased out of Texas
Send him back to Connecticut, so his fellow CTers can point fingers at him and hail him with derisive laughter.

7. But, but, but that scaredy-cat Bush* is afraid to visit San Francisco...
Edited on Mon Aug-22-05 11:28 PM by BrotherBuzz
BUSH KEEPS S.F. AT BAY

President hasn't participated in 75-year tradition of visiting city -- and he has no plans to do so


Washington -- Presidential visits to San Francisco have been a tradition since Rutherford Hayes lunched at the Cliff House in 1880.

Presidents arrived by stagecoach and jet. One was shot at. Another died. In all, 20 presidents have visited the city, including every chief executive for the past 75 years.

Except George W. Bush.

Now in the fifth year of his presidency, Bush has yet to set a foot in the city that was home to his childhood baseball idol, Willie Mays, and shows no inclination to do so. The White House is planning a California visit by the end of the month, and San Francisco is not on the itinerary.

San Francisco, with roughly three-quarters of a million residents, is the only city among the nation's 25 largest that has not been host for a Bush presidential visit. If he avoids San Francisco for the rest of his term, he will be the first president not to visit since Calvin Coolidge, and only the second in more than a century.

The reason seems plain to even casual observers of American politics.

San Francisco is as politically, culturally and geographically distant from the president as anyplace in America. Eighty-four percent of the city's voters cast ballots against Bush in 2000, and 85 percent voted against him in 2004. The city has voted Democratic in 12 consecutive presidential elections.

Bush's Visit Helps Put Idaho Town on Map

"Bush arrives in Valley County on Monday evening, following a speech in Salt Lake City. He plans no public events in Donnelly, but will speak Wednesday in Nampa, west of Boise.

The White House has said Bush will be staying at the exclusive Tamarack Resort while participating in activities that could include fishing for wild rainbow trout or riding a mountain bike on forest trails with Idaho Gov. Dirk Kempthorne, also a Republican"
