At the expense of free speech and assembly?? HELL NO! The people in attendence at his public appearances will determine that what kind of photo-op he gets.

Public servants in free countries are not immune to protest or criticism when they are in public.

If W doesn't like it he can run for office in China or Singapore. Or stay away from the public.

"In Platteville, peace activist Frank Van Den Bosch was arrested for holding up a sign that was critical of the president. The sign's "dangerous" message, "FUGW," was incomprehensible to children and, no doubt, to many adults."

What is this all about?
