El Mirage Pictures...32 images total.
Here are all the pictures that I took today in El Mirage, AZ. It was great...no "free speech" zone here...we were right in his face and there wasn't anything the SS could do about it...!

Please do not hotlink these images...right click and save to your own hardrive if you want to keep one or two...my server is strained as it is...thanks a bunch.

Enjoy...



These ladies I met when I first got there...The one holding the "Army Mom" sign was flicked off and told "Lose weight B!t@h" by a repuke driving by. That jerkoff was pretty much the only one who caused some trouble. Such compassion huh...?


It was still early when I got there...but the crowd did pick up rather quicly.


The front enterance...He couldn't hide from us...!!!





Code Pink was out in full force. Handing out signs, literature, water, and really kept everyone going...!


Like I said...He can't hide from us...he had to come right by us to get in.




Chicken George showed up...this guy was great...He was a hit...I felt sorry for him though...it was warm out and I know he had to be burning up in that suit!



Still waiting for chimpy to show up...


People started to cross the street but were quickly sent back to our side of the street...to close to Chimpy I guess...


Yours truly...! The one and only "IMAX"...! Like my shirt...?


The two brothers that I met...sorry guys, can't remember your names...It's a bad habit that I have.




The crowd seemed to just keep getting bigger...people were coming from everywhere...!!!


The Surprise, El Mirage, and the Sheriff's department were all very friendly and very helpful.





More and more people kept showing up and chanting, singing, and having fun while Chimpy was inside making his scripted speech.


Lady Lib and friend...she saw my shirt and yelled out...very nice meeting you guys...!!!



Yours truly again...



These pictures really don't do the size of the crowd justice...there was many people there...I'm guessing 150 to 200, but there was others saying about 300+...all's I can tell you is that there was a lot of people there to shout down Chimpy...!



Here's Chimpy and Pickles quickly driving away...Bye Bye liar...!

And Again...Please use these pictures if you want to...all's I ask is that you save them to your hardrive and post them to your own server if you have one. Please do not hotlink my images...my server is strained as it is...thanks...

3. Good job! I hope he has bad dreams, every night.
Although he's probably too heavily medicated to remember them.

13. *kick*
Terrific pics!

Great turnout, especially for a hot day (108 by 11 a.m. at my house).

Thanks so much. kicked and nominated. Let's keep the cause on the greatest page, since the media is having to focus on the hurricane.

20. El Mirage Welcoming Committee
Was unable to attend, but was glad to see the pictures and good turnout! BTW, Faux 10 news reported that there was not a single critic at bush's speech--neglected to point out that the admiring crowd inside was a hand-picked invitation-only group, and never mentioned any protest outside. I think, though, the number of people opposing the war is going to get harder and harder to ignore.
