[Lasher]

4. Why Can't He

waste taxpayer money stinking up some other state?

[CrownPrinceBandar]

5. I'll be there............

but I won't have a ticket. I wonder where the "free-speech" zones will be?

[Lasher]

6. Why don't you try to get a ticket?

I would like to hear of the experience. Make them say no.

[CrownPrinceBandar]

7. They are not available..........

from what I understand. Besides, I don't think I'd pass the "loyalty test" that they require to get in to see him. :shrug:

What's worse is that I've heard they are cutting down some cool old trees especially for his visit. :grr: :grr: :grr:

8. They Better Keep Their Fucking Chainsaw At Home

If they cut down so much as a leaf out of that Circle (Woodburn Circle) the University will have seen its very last dime from theis Alumni and the other one that lives here as well.

11. I talked to some friends today....

at a wedding I attended that said they nixed the chop-chop. The trees are apparently safe.

10. Evansdale?

Do you think that's far enough away for "dissenters" to be located?

9. No Answer At That Number Saturday Afternoon

I just tried that number (which is a Morgantown Number) and got no anaswer at 2:41 pm saturday.

I guess its back to plan one. Make a sign and then see how close we can get.

12. They covered this on ABC news tonight

All about how the patriotic town of Morgantown was thrilled to welcome Bush, as was the rest of WV. Gack. If that's true, the town sure has changed since I last lived there in...well, never mind how long ago that was.

13. MSNBC Anchor Robach Implied Bush Protesters Unpatriotic

As noted on the weblog Daily Kos,

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2005/7/4/103658/4428

MSNBC Live anchor Amy Robach suggested that protesting President Bush's policies was unpatriotic. Following a live broadcast of President Bush's Independence Day address at West Virginia University, Robach told viewers, "There were a couple of protesters we heard with a few signs, but for the most part, looks like a very patriotic crowd."

Robach apparently does not believe that one can love one's country while opposing the current president. As The New York Times reported,

many of the protesters did, in fact, explicitly state their support for the troops:
