Dec. 2, 2003

Lots of media showed up:
KTLA 5, CBS 2, channels 9 and [FOX] 11 as well, plus a CBS [13] from Sacramento.

And...

..an infobabe from the...

Washington Post!

Plus, some dweebs from NPR...

and a LOT of "free lance" photographers and videocameras.

Great work! The fact that the Hollywood types staged a "HATE" Bush rally just confirms my impression of liberalism as the heart of darkness. I'm glad though they've dropped the pretense of compassion and shown themselves for who they really are.

Kudos, RonDog, for getting the word out in such short order. I thought that this was a very good turnout all things considered.

He also happens to be gay and detests what the gay Reagan-hating activists have done.

Thanks Al...I in fact know some very prominent homosexuals, and some not so prominent, in the Los Angeles area that are card carrying Republicans. Despite what the media would have the populace swallow, the Republican ground swell and revolution is a force that is only gaining in momentum.

Thanks for being there and thanks too for giving us this report.

I'll check in on this thread tomorrow (far too much to read tonight).

And the cowardly press chimes in with suppressing the obvious news of our protests: CNN and LA Times

Let's see... there were denials that it was a "hate Bush" event, despite the ACT's being seeded with $10M from billionaire George Soros, who said about removing Bush:

"It is the central focus of my life, a matter of life and death". and "America, under Bush, is a danger to the world," Mr Soros said. Then he smiled: "And I’m willing to put my money where my mouth is."

Oh, yeah... this guy DOESN'T hate Bush.

>>Is there a reverse look-up for phone numbers?

Just sticking a phone number into Google is often effective.

P.S. I saw two people give us the finger with one hand, while holding their phones in the other-- while DRIVING.


Too bad that they could not have hit a telephone pole at 75 mph.

Thanks for the ping. Thought that was you in the pictures further up in the thread. Looks like you were havin a great time.

I found it funny Heather Thomas was part of it,
I didn't know she was still alive ;)

LOL!

See also this SHORT EXCERPT from the L.A. Times story about last night's event:

If the meeting demonstrated the depth of opposition to the Bush administration among many in Hollywood, it also underscored the hostility many conservatives feel toward what they term the "cultural elite."

Calls and faxes attacking the gathering's sponsors — some of them anti-Semitic — came in from around the country from people who heard about it on conservative talk radio.

But in Los Angeles, the unexpected buzz caused the event to mushroom from 100 people to 230 — prompting the organizers to find a bigger room at the Beverly Hilton and to turn away many people who wanted to come, organizers said.

Among those expected to attend were Christine Lahti, Aaron Sorkin, Rob Reiner, Heather Thomas, producer Paula Weinstein, and "MASH" television star Mike Farrell.

Director Robert Greenwald, a co-host, joked that organizers would have to thank their detractors — "or put them on retainer."

No mention of OUR rally in this L.A. Times story - What a SURPRISE! - but also no mention of WHICH "stars" actually attended their event either.

It's all about sex with you Republicans, isn't it? ;P
