Trio that was tossed out of social security event says they plan to sue
snip>

DENVER - The three people from Denver who were kicked out of President Bush's town hall meeting on social security reform are threatening to sue the man who forced them out and the people who trained him.

They trio, who've become known as the "Denver Three," have asked repeatedly for the man's name, but have gotten no response. The secret service is investigating the incident.

Leslie Weise, Karen Bauer and Alex Young obtained tickets from the office of U.S. Rep. Bob Beauprez, R-Colo, to attend the March 21 event at the Wings of the Rockies Museum.

Shortly after they arrived, they were approached by a man, who they thought was a U.S. Secret Service agent, who escorted them out of the event. They were told they'd been identified because of the bumper sticker on the car they drove that said "No Blood for Oil," a popular anti-war slogan.

4. I keep hoping this seemingly small story will stay front and center
for a while longer. A lawsuit will force the disclosure of all sorts of unsavory details...bring it on!! MKJ

3. I think that our public
tax dollars should pay for their lawyers. After all, dumbyas town hall meetings are being paid for by us, aren't they?? I say sue the hell out of the bastards.
