Anyone Who "Disrupts" Is Helping the GOP
Edited on Thu Aug-26-04 06:02 PM by K8-EEE
For God's sake, protest away and good on ya, I love it.

But please anybody who is thinking of "disrupting" DON'T! You will be playing into their hands and taking the focus off the the divisions and HYPOCRISY of the GOP.

First of all, I'm for free speech even for BushCo, but more importantly, it would just take the focus off them, their platform has so many nutty things in it, they will do themselves in if only we can call them on the fact that MOST AMERICANS DO NOT SHARE THESE PLATFORM "VALUES!"

What I really don't want is to give Faux News any "LOOK WHAT GWB IS SAVING US FROM" chaotic photo ops. I think something like that would be the best possible thing for Bush*!

On edit, what I mean by "disrupting" is violence and/or property damage.

2. These liars will make an issue out of a dropped cigarette butt!!
There is strength in numbers--hundreds of thousands compared to a few hundred at the Dem convention. That alone will send a tremendous message.

3. I respectfully disagree
"...governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness." --Declaration of Independence as originally written by Thomas Jefferson
