What would happen to that person if they did?

I remember stories of people being dragged out because they had an anti-Bush bumper sticker on their car...

What is wrong with these people?

2. Hell, they practically "eliminated" anyone wearing an
opposing tee-shirt to their events.

3. Or an informed opinion?
LOL! The irony. We were regulated to 'Free Speech' zones at the very least, a quarter mile away from the event. The other day I went to 'Taste of Edmonds' and saw that someone had spray painted a box around their car and had written, 'Free Speach Zone' (that tipped me off it wasn't 'one of us'). Bwahahaha! The wingers actually think they have it rough even though they can carry their guns close to where the President is going to speak and are allowed to disrupt town halls without getting hauled out, or beaten up by the crowd (damn civilized libruls!). What a bunch of milksops.

6. No, I honestly can't.
I tried, but I can't. It would have been the collapse of civilization, I think.

7. Protesters
were kept miles away from Bush. His audiences were filled with prescreened sycophants.

I can barely watch the news anymore. Where was the criticism of Bush that is anywhere near as vitriolic as the stuff happening with Obama?
