Bush in my state!
The shrub will be in Milwaukee later today. Ticket sales at $2,000 a plate were slow, I'm glad to say. I'm on the other end of the state and can't make it to town, but am hoping lots of people are there to "greet" him. Get out and give the fraud a big Wisconsin Badger Welcome and post pics later.

1. Ugh. I'm right in town but stuck at work.
I know that there will be a lot of Dean people and Kucinich people protesting. Peace groups are going, labor groups are going. It's going to be a mess for *. I'm sad to miss it.

Welcome to DU! Whereabouts are you from?

4. The only good thing about Bush being your state is....
that he is out of my hometown....Washington, DC. Man, I hate that asshole.

6. This city is crawling with police right now...
A colleague of mine, who lives maybe 30 minutes from here, says there's tons of cops all over the place. He didn't know about *'s visit, but both of us assume that's why they're there.

10. Great, the country is falling apart and
people are dying in Iraq, but asshole* is hitting the campaign trail hard.

He really doesn't get it does he? All the money in the world can't help him now..(I hope). Let's just hope he keeps spiraling downward and all the pukes who contribute to his campaign can watch their money go down the drain.

13. Yea, he's supposedly announcing the start of his campaign today
Why he's kicking it off here, I have no clue. He didn't win here in '00 and I doubt, with what he's managed to wreck since that his numbers will improve.

Just heard today that my county is loosing 150-200 more jobs with a plant closing. We have a low population and high unemployment as it is. Perhaps my conservative neighbors will figure it out and pitch the pukes in '04.

14. Don't worry to much
Mayor Daley ordered the CFD to disinfect the city after * left the other day, and it seems to have worked. :P
