Far Left Wing Facists Invade Republican Convention as Volunteers!

Left Wing Anarchists Posing as voluteers inside the Republican Convention, they have infiltrated the ranks of the RNC, and God only knows what type of havoc they will cause at the convention! Read the following posting from one of these undercover anarchists.

from nyc indymedia http://nyc.indymedia.org/newswire/display/96155/index.php So, I went to a RNC volunteer orientation... Current rating: 0 by @ 02 Jul 2004 Modified: 08:12:29 PM

reportback from a rnc volunteer "orientation." obvious details have been left out.

first, go to www.nyc2004.org/volunteer (don't click on that link; copy and paste it into a new browser) and fill out that spiel. put down that you are available all times, every day and embelish your skills, basically what everyone does already on their resumes.

then you get an email inviting you to a "volunteer orientation" taking place at baruch college in manhattan.

at the orientation, you basically sit at a table with what is ostensibly an interviewer who will ask for 2 forms of government ID (i.e. license and social security card; or just 1 if it's a passport) and ask you a couple simple questions. make yourself sound all nice and eager and shit. then they tell you that you will hear back from them in late july/ early august after the "security check" (done by "law enforcement officials") goes through. if you make it through all that, training will occur between august 7th-18th; most trainings will be in nyc but something was mentioned about having a couple in NJ.

after this you go sit with a larger group of people and watch a boring power point presentation. you're given a short survey in which you let them know what you think about the whole process. the whole thing takes about 1/2 hour.

a couple key points:

-both potential volunteers and host committee staff are well aware of protests; a volunteer expressed anxiety about wearing clothing that would let people know they are down w/ the rnc and thus open to "harassment." staff claimed that some "consulting firm" will come in to tell people "how to deal with" protestors.

-about half there were middle-aged and older white men in business suits, a couple females, a couple "young" people, and at least 2 that looked like they might themselves be "shadow" volunteers.

-at the end there was a sign-up sheet for people to come in and make "welcoming signs" that would "be seen on tv" during the convention.

Don't you think the stench of the infiltrators will be noticed?

If the left rats get caught tampering with the RNC that should knock some of the fence sitters to GWB. A backlash against the dems in the swing states would be nice just before the election.

The RNC could easily eliminate these people, if they checked the registration and when did they register.

People who have been registered Republicans are most likely OK, but they should be leary of any recently registered Republicans, not to mention people who aren't registered Republicans, but are volunteering to the RNC.

It would be so easy for the RNC to paint something like this on the Kerry campaign. Explaining how the Kerry campaign refuses to stick to tradition and respect for the other party.

Quite a long process just to make sure coffee and doughnuts arrives a few minutes late for some side meeting...

Absolutely. These idiots will do nothing but show how stupid they are to the rest of the Country. Maybe the RNC can tie them to the kerry campaign?
