Blitzer (CNN) Shows Asscroft Protestors in NYC and Reports that "he has

[KoKo]

been met by Protestors and Supporters whever he has gone." I assume he meant the audience that had to be there (Police) were the "supporters" because the photos were of huge group of protestors.

Blitzer focused on NYC for the protest, but mention 160 cities and towns across the US had passed resolutions "opposing" Patriot Act.

One woman, family of 9/11 Victim was interviewed and said: "I am offended that he is coming to NY the week of 9/11, because I feel Ashcroft and the entire Bush administration are using 9/11 to achieve their political ends or goals."

So, it seems our protests of Asscroft all over America are getting attention.........

Keep it up.......try wherever you are to get out and protest him! The announcements of where he's coming are always last minute so it's hard for many folks to get there.......but try.............

You have to keep knocking the media over their heads, but sometimes it gets through!

2. Favor, please...

If you can bear it to the end (25 minutes) see if he says anything about his daily poll. It seems to have gone missing from his show's site.

3. Supporters??

I was at the Boston protest and there was only 1 supporter there and he was a total flake.

4. Has anyone heard where Ashcroft is going next?

5. He's coming to your town.

With his secret list of naysayers and naybobs of negativism. Reporting to the listners and watchers that you are a person of interest.
Pretty scary stuff.

8. Darn, must have been that whistle I just bought!

Shouldn't have put it on my credit card.

6. check out your local "Indy Media" site. They get the "heads up."

And, they don't give you even 24 hours notice.....Asscroft roams in secret......fits his personality and paranoia about himself.

That anyone has been able to get out to protest him at all because of this is a "miracle" in itself!

7. Protestors AND supporters?

Not too many of the latter in evidence, and why aren't his little pep talks open to the public? Another administration coward, too scared to appear before an audience that isn't hand picked. And like Chimpy and Crash Cart, Crisco Johnny has to scuttle in and out of buildings under heavy guard, using misdirection tactics to avoid facing anyone who can't be ordered to like him.

9. Forget the Supporter....they showed pics of Protestors.....that's all

I care about.......it was "whore media" trying to be "balanced towards the RW!"

Protestors got a segment......I'm thankful for "small favors!"

10. Nothing offends me more

Than their use of 9/11 for their evil purposes. Including the invasion of Iraq.

It a shameful use of the deaths of innocent Americans.
