OMG.....ORDERS: do not look at bush*, keep your eyes straight ahead !!!

[diamond14]

"Do not make any sudden movements"..... with snipers on all the roofs, what parent would send their little children to march in the re-selection charade? What if your little pom-pom girl accidently looked at bush* or tripped and fell, would she be KILLED?????

-snips-

Parade performers said they also have been warned to expect unprecedented security. "They've told us right out that it's going to be very, very tight," said Peter LaFlamme, executive director of the Spartans Drum and Bugle Corps in Nashua, N.H. LaFlamme said he has been receiving almost daily phone calls from inaugural organizers to apprise him of new security procedures.

Thousands of performers - marching bands, color guards, pompon dancers, hand bell-ringers, drill teams on horseback and Civil War re-enactors - will be bused early in the morning to the Pentagon parking lot across the Potomac in Virginia. While performers disembark and go through metal detectors, bomb-sniffing dogs will search the buses.

Then everybody will get back on the buses for a trip to the National Mall, where they will spend most of the day in heavily guarded warming tents. Participants have been warned that they will not be allowed to leave the tents except to go to portable toilets accompanied by a security escort.

Other instructions given performers include a warning not to look directly at Bush while passing the presidential reviewing stand, not to look to either side and not to make any sudden movements. "They want you to just look straight ahead," said Danielle Adam, co-director of the Mid American Pompon All Star Team from Michigan, which also performed in the 2001 inaugural parade.

"Last time we went security was really tight," Adam said. "This time we got almost like a book of things we needed to fill out beforehand."

1. Thank Gawd....

who wants to have to look at the slob anyway?

[donheld]

39. The only reason i'd wanna make eye contact with *

3. Guess they're worried that someone will send Bush home to God.

Well, if that's not faith in action, I don't know what is.

[aden_nak]

4. A lot of cult leaders order their followers not to look upon them.

[fertilizeonarbusto]

5. This has to be spread all over the place.

My friends, it is happening. Their hubris IS getting them. We have to go for the jugular now, get the Dems to grow a spine (Go, Howard!) and reach out to the growing number of angry, disillusioned, awake former Chimp-supporters. This is going to be fun.

[oneighty]

6. What if the gave an inauguration

and nobody showed up.

I think that would be a great thing for the country. Save money, protect the Prezi all at the very same time.

[chelaque liberal]

54. Don't you mean "What if the gave a coranation..."

This whole thing is so disgusting.

[RPM]

7. nazi storm troopers looked straight ahead

why shouldnt the latter-day incarnation do the same....

Assholes.

[BiggJawn]

47. like these guys...

[RPM]

55. Red X's never look to the side...

Oh - i guess the photo isn't coming thru :-(

[BiggJawn]

60. You wouldn't believe how hard it is to find photos of Goose-steppers...

You'd think there'd be scads of 'em on O'Lielly's, Insannity's, and Coulter's sites....

8. And No Mirrors!

People might figure out thay can't see his reflection.

[nadinbrzezinski]

9. If I had a kid in this farce

he or she would not participate, in fact people should pull out. Those snipers mean business, and be honest, you are ten, he is the president (hold your opinion for a second) wouldn't you want to see him? Face to face that is?

This is a level of paranoia, granted he is not paranoid, unprecedented in US History... oh and any of those snipers does open fire, it may wake up some people to the reality that is Bush and his goons

[rkc3]

17. If one sniper opened fire - there might be a massacre.

[nadinbrzezinski]

22. Remember some say it took Kent State to wake up

those who were asleep way back when...

Not that I want the Secret Service to open fire, but this level of parranoia is going to lead to somebody pulling a trigger sooner or later.

Oh and not necessarily from the SS, those are some of the best trained, (also read disciplined) in the world... but put a National Guard (streesed already) or local poorly trained SWAT, and some SWAT are not trained that well...

[diamond14]

38. yes, for Kent State, they ALL started firing...67 bullets into a crowd...

http://alancanfora.com/victims.htm

The Victims of May 4, 1970

On May 4, 1970, four Kent State University students were killed and nine others wounded when numerous members of the Ohio National Guard --mostly from Troop G, the death-squad--fired 67 bullets into a crowd of unarmed students during an anti-war demonstration under the noonday sun.

The four dead Kent State students were shot and killed by bullets while they were far away from their killers who fired 67 deadly bullets, mostly from powerful M-1 rifles, during 13 seconds of mayhem.

Nine other Kent students were wounded: Alan Canfora, John Cleary, Tom Grace, Dean Kahler, Joe Lewis, Scott Mackenzie, Jim Russell, Robby Stamps & Doug Wrentmore.


Full-Time Students
All 13 of the Kent State massacre victims were full-time students. This fact dispels the myth of "outside-agitators" in the student demonstration. Kent State was where the most American students were killed in one incident (4) and the only incident where women were killed (2).

Jackson State
Only 10 days later, two more students were killed by racist highway patrolmen at Jackson State University, in Mississippi: James Earl Green and Philip Gibbs.


Jeffrey Miller was shot through the head 275 feet away.


Allison Krause was shot through the arm & chest 350 feet away.


Bill Schroeder was shot in the back nearly 400 feet away


Sandy Scheuer was shot through the throat nearly 400 feet away.

- Four Dead In Ohio Lyrics
Tin soldiers and Nixon's comin'.
We're finally on our own.
This summer I hear the drummin'.
Four dead in Ohio.

Gotta get down to it.
Soldiers are gunning us down.
Should have been done long ago.
What if you knew her and
Found her dead on the ground?
How can you run when you know?

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na.
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na.
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na.
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na.

Gotta get down to it.
Soldiers are cutting us down.
Should have been done long ago.
What if you knew her and
Found her dead on the ground?
How can you run when you know?

Tin soldiers and Nixon's comin'.
We're finally on our own.
This summer I hear the drummin'.
Four dead in Ohio.
Four dead in Ohio.
Four dead in Ohio.
Four dead in Ohio.
Four dead in Ohio.
Four dead in Ohio.
Four dead in Ohio.
Four dead in Ohio.
Four dead in Ohio.

63. i was the type to look because i was told not to n/t

[Bluebear]

10. No sudden movements! Monkey may be rabid! n/t

[diamond14]

11. "CIVIL WAR re-enactors" OMG....this is for the bush* KKK group...

christian crosses, confederates, snipers, grenade launchers, and DON'T MAKE ANY SUDDEN MOVES !!!


this is very anti-American...it belongs in nazi Germany.....bush* will likely have tanks rolling down Pennsylvania Avenue, with glorious WAR propaganda EVERYWHERE....

[noamnety]

12. Oddly similar to an idea I had in August

Excerpt from my letter to Gillespie, after watching how the loyalty oaths worked:

"I am not sure if this is possible, but I think that there could be a way to prevent President Bush’s speeches from being aired on regular television, where just anyone can listen. I was thinking his speeches could be broadcast on something like pay-per-view, except you wouldn’t really have to pay, you’d have to mail in a form saying you endorse him, and then get some sort of code you can punch in to allow access. Or, if you make them pay, that could be a neat fundraiser! I hope you like my suggestion."

Perhaps they can still use that fundraiser idea. For a donation (say $200) you would be allowed to cast your eyes briefly upon the annointed one. For a larger contribution ($1,000) you would be allowed to look upon him for the entire coronation.

14. this is PRIMO material for Jon Stewert....

I wonder if Randi has mentioned it, can almost guarantee Malloy will!

[DELUSIONAL]

41. Malloy covered this last night

well worth downloading and listening to this program -- since tonight's program is a "Best OF Malloy" -- he's off due to dental work.

[BR_Parkway]

15. They want to make sure no kid embarrasses him, remember the

one in the background of some speech video who yawned?

[DELUSIONAL]

16. Parents are STUPID to allow their children to be in the parade

don't these STUPID parents realize that their children will have snipers pointing their rifles at their kids????

If this were China -- and one of the kids is killed because they did something "suspicious" the parents would have to pay for the bullet.

As it is the kids are raising the money to go to this event and have a rifle pointed at them.

Sharp shooters will be out in force to protect this idiot.

And perhaps it won't even be him up there -- could be a double.

[nadinbrzezinski]

20. hmm I am sorry your son \ daughter was accidentally

killed in the parade. By the way, due to budgetary concerns, we are charging you 5.50 for the bullet, 15000 for the care given to your child to try to save him, and half a million for the stress on the sniper. We are sure you understand

Sincerely,

George Bush
American Emperor.

[tanyev]

24. Wouldn't use the word sorry.

"I regret"

[nadinbrzezinski]

26. Good point

Lord this is a sick discusion all on its own... but how far have we sunk? I will add, the boy king is not paranoid... truly he is not paranoid, but this is going to lead to a disaster sooner or later

[noamnety]

29. nice letter

maybe they can could even get a little machine to sign bush's name to it.

[nadinbrzezinski]

30. Count on it... he would NEVER personally

sign this... no way, he is too busy getting more bidnezz

[bluestateguy]

18. "Security" is mostly an upper middle class obsession

People of more modest means are used to living without security every day: fear of losing a job, and with it one's home, health insurance, etc.

33. The Power of Nigtmares

That is because not enough people have seen "THE POWER OF NIGHTMARES"

Documentary BBC Video:

http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/

Scroll down on right... THREE PART VIDEO

[diamond14]

43. excellent video....WATCH IT and learn....includes all the nixon and reagun

players that got us into this IRAQ mess....

gripping film clips of the assassination of Egyptian President anwar sadat, by HIS OWN MILITARY, during a war-celebration parade....


the series is in THREE parts, each part is one hour....it's an eye-opening series, aired on BBC- TV in Oct, Nov 2004....there are old film-clips, interviews with CIA experts, old clips of kissenger (as he sets up sadat's assassination), nixon, cheney, rumsfeld, wolfowitz in the 1970's....give great insights into today's mess...

throughout, there is a wonderful juxtaposition of the radical religious madness used by BOTH bush* and osama bin laden....insights into the bush* minions 'straussian' philosophy (from U of Chicago) which believes that the ends justify the means, that the bush* lies are necessary to their goals....


watch it, while it's still online without charge.....

19. Nazi authoritarian rule is firmly in place now.

Worship the Fuhrer but do not look into his eyes. Look straight ahead and goose step to the sound of Hail to the Chief.

[Calico Jack Rackham]

21. I recall my Greek Mythology

said not to look a Gorgon directly in the face or else you will be turned to stone. Good thing someone gave such sound advice to the little PomPom girls.

[leftynyc]

36. I'm pretty sure that was Medusa

Funny thing - when vacationing in Mykonos, there was a hair salon named Medusa (who had snakes for hair) - never could figure out what they were thinking. .

[Mabus]

45. Medusa was one of three Gorgon

The Gorgon were three sisters (Medusa, Stheno and Euryale) who had snakes for their hair.

[Behind the Aegis]

40. Metaphor

In the case of Shrub, you will not really turn to stone....but your heart will!

[Kikosexy2]

23. Good..

lord why even bother going. I'd say stay home and don't watch it on TV. Boycott it as much as possible.

[nadinbrzezinski]

25. This is what they want

If I could I would be there protesting, but no way I would take my kids...

[Kikosexy2]

27. Why...

won't the Good Lord have lightning strike him? ugghh!

[nadinbrzezinski]

28. Because the good lord does not intervene in

human events, otherwise he or she or it would have stopped, among other events... the Holocaust, the Armenian Holocaust, hell the current mess. It is up to us humans.

[Stephanie]

31. I was told by someone who knows hotel workers at the Waldorf

that the waitstaff there is ordered not to look at Bush when they enter the room to deliver room service.

[Quakerfriend]

34. I don't get it

What is the point of not looking at him?

[Stephanie]

35. He thinks he's royalty

Waiters are not good enough to look at him. He doesn't want to acknowledge them. I guess.

[sweetheart]

52. male monkeys take eye contact as a form of aggression

and then bush starts screaming and spitting trying to claw peoples
eyes out.... You'll find the same advise from a zoo keeper when
dealing with male chimpanzees.

[ClayZ]

32. Here is great little protest story!

Rove Sweet Rove
Ignored by “Bush’s Brain,” activists take the fight to his home
By Tracy Van Slyke April 13, 2004


On a quiet Sunday afternoon in late March, more than a dozen yellow school buses crept up the street of a high-end Washington, D.C. neighborhood and parked in front of the home of Karl “Bush’s Brain” Rove, senior policy advisor to President Bush.

Members of National People’s Action (NPA), a national coalition of community organizations, poured onto Rove’s lawn demanding that the White House support the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors (DREAM) Act. The activists surrounded Rove’s home chanting, blowing whistles and carrying posters with the message, “Rove: Don’t steal the dream!”

44. numerous protests held at rummy's house too...which is why they'll SHOOT

for the coronation....

these are very dangerous times....bush* and his minions are very angry because NOBODY is buying what they're trying to sell....a few DEAD pom pom girls will get everyone under control (at least that's how they think)....do NOT send your children here to DC for the coronation...keep your kids safe at home....

rummy is PISSED about the protests...he just sold his home in New Mexico, because of the increasing protests, and the protests in DC are theatrical performances of POW torture, black hoods, dogs, wires, etc....on the public sidewalk outside rummy's DC house, every day....

[ClayZ]

50. Maybe we need as many Protests as we do Petitions...

If we kept up the Protests..Maybe they would all move to ...FRANCE...or somewhere.. HAHAHAHHAHHAHA

If you can not make it to DC here are some more nationwide PROTESTS!

37. Why not just use cardboard cutouts of people instead?

[Quakerfriend]

42. That's a great idea!

It might be construed as a blind of sorts that would allow one to commit an act of terrror.

[drdtroit]

46. Who's directing? Scorsese? Coppola? Lucas?

Sounds like a freakin' B minus Tom Clancy novel!

48. What will happen if a performer trips

Or falls, or makes some other sudden movement that is completely accidental? What if one of the horses gets spooked?
What if Chimpy falls on his face again when he's trying to walk up to the podium? Do they really think everyone would look the other way?
This has disaster written all over it.

59. The Death Threats Must Be Pervasive

Putting a little fear in his mind is a good thing, me thinks!

A taste of his own medicine.

I wonder what else we can do to instill more fear of the people within him - maybe erect a guillotine somewhere that his eyes can't miss it?

[PROGRESSIVE1]

61. Just like the Third Reich.
