Americans For Prosperity "bus tour" will be here tomorrow.
They are holding an anti-healthcare rally at one of our parks, and they are being warmly welcomed by our local republican party (see link http://www.weldcountygop.org/ for their announcement of the event). Please note that they actually refer to this as a "bus tour", as if they were coming here to benignly admire our amber waves of grain.

We're going to be there, too. We won't shout, we will converse. We'll have non-inflammatory signs. We'll have cameras.

The park, by the way, is right across the street from the downtown police station.

1. Go get 'em. Try to get them to see the benefits of reform, but above all, be careful!
Document everything!

4. I'm one of those seniors.
And I carry a cane and wear oxygen. Think they'll be brave enough to take me on?
