Alert :  Cheney Demonstration call (costumes optional)
"Not In Our Name Hawaii" <[e-mail]>

NION Supporters: We received the following call for a "Spontaneous demo" on Sunday evening beginning at 7 pm. Cheney is scheduled to be there at 11:00 pm. Here's the notice we received. Bring your costumes, blue world flags, Just Say No to Bush posters, and your Halloween costumes. See you there.

It's a Dick Cheney Halloween Party! By now you likely know that the
Republicans are sending in Vice President Dick Cheney to help put
Hawai'i into the red column next Tuesday. The chief architect of the
Iraqi war will be "a special guest along with other Republican
Candidates at the 2004 Victory Rally" at the Hawaii Convention Center, Sunday, October 31 at 11:00 P.M. NOTE: This late-hour event time is indeed correct, likely due to Cheney's schedule as he is flying in from New Mexico. The Convention Center doors will open at 7:30 P.M.

INTERNATIONAL MEDIA WILL BE THERE - so join the spontaneous protest
beginning at 7:00 P.M. around the Convention Center. Appropriate
SPOOKY!! Halloween COSTUMES AND SIGNS are suggested but not required.
Because of the weekend, we know that it will be difficult to get the
word out but I wanted to give you a heads up that THIS IS HAPPENING.

4. Heh

Honestly, I have an ultra strong feeling that there will be MANY protestors out there in the audience when the "Dick" passes by Hawaii. It seems like the Republican Party is giving out tickets like candy!!!

Expect a strong showing of dissent :-)

It seems like the Republican Party is giving out tickets like candy!!!
