1. "town hall meeting"
format is what will be used and dutifully reported on by the MSM....

What about a Democratic "Road Show" of our own with our own "Town Hall " format?

We can't let this go unchallenged!!!!

Protesters to greet Bush at NJ town hall meeting on Social Security

WASHINGTON - President Bush could be greeted by hundreds of protesters when he comes to New Jersey on Friday to hold a town hall meeting on Social Security.

Brad Woodhouse, a spokesman for Americans United to Protect Social Security, a coalition of more than 200 organizations formed at the urging of Democratic congressional leaders, said Tuesday that New Jersey will be the group's focus this week.

"This is where the president has decided to go and take his snake oil and try to sell it," Woodhouse said. "We want the president to know of the groundswell of opposition that exists to his plan to privatize Social Security."

Woodhouse said his group plans to join forces with several local organizations to bring hundreds of protesters to the Westfield, N.J., armory, where Bush is slated to have a town hall-style meeting to discuss his plan to create private accounts within Social Security.

Everyplace they go they should be greeted like this.

Santorum said (about his reception in Pa) that "the opposition is better organized than we are on this". It never even crossed his mind that the AMERICAN PEOPLE may actually be opposed to it.

These guys think that "you can fix everything in Marketing".
fuckwads

6. Industrious carpenter-types could build Trojan Horses !
That's what this 'privatization' is anyways. You can ALREADY put money in an IRA or annuity...why bother with this deficit raising CARVE-OUT of $2 trillion ? Why not just cut the $1.8 trillion tax-cuts to the rich and spare the deficit any more trauma ?

Bush's legacy is that he's going down as the Worst President, Ever ! No if's, and's or but's.
