I don't believe it!
CNN has just aired a piece on the British protests, including showing a lady in Suffolk making the statue of Shrub that will be toppled in Trafalgar Square. Quite a bit of coverage on different protestors, and right after a short bit on the Queen saying there was enough security at Buckingham Palace and turning down Shrub's request for more security. Does this mean CNN will air the protests? Will we actually get to see them topple the statue?

1. If the U.S. media don't show the statue being toppled, you can
probably catch it at Al-Jazeera - if it isn't destroyed with a cruise missile first.

6. He damn near needs to already....
Look at these demands

Among others:

"The Americans had also wanted to travel with a piece of military hardware called a 'mini-gun', which usually forms part of the mobile armoury in the presidential cavalcade. It is fired from a tank and can kill dozens of people. One manufacturer's description reads: 'Due to the small calibre of the round, the mini-gun can be used practically anywhere. This is especially helpful during peacekeeping deployments.'"

and look at this paranoid crap:

"The White House initially demanded the closure of all Tube lines under parts of London to be visited during the trip. But British officials dismissed the idea that a suicide bomber could kill the President by blowing up a Tube train. Ministers are also believed to have dismissed suggestions that a 'sterile zone' around the President should be policed entirely by American special agents and military."
