"We're just going there as people"...are they normally somehow elevated?

I suppose the appropriate response for onlookers would be "Look at all the a**es!"

The protesters will line Bush's parade route, with no signs and no clothes that distinguish them from the general public.

The ill dressed, pungent, slack jawed, vacant eyed DU losers will stand out like sore festered thumbs.

Makes you sympathize with Randy Moss.

I wouldn't go that far.

The bus drivers should be arrested for hauling toxic waste across state lines.

Sounds like a humdinger of a protest. Just show the world what a backside you are, and then the ??-hour trip back to Wisconsin. Wish we had thought of that!



All for a $90 bus ticket......

Dungheap Harkin, Scuba-diver Kennedy, Barney (eats) Frank and their pals make a pit stop on their bus trip to nowhere.

14 hours each way riding a stinking, cold bus = $90

Sharing a DC hotel room for two nights with 7 strangers = $60

Box lunch = $8

Standing backwards like a miserable, angry, invisible idiot for 12 seconds while surrounded by cheering happy people enjoy life = Priceless

" The President won't see them or care what they do." Absolutely!

Yes, but it's vitally important that they protest, because they're the forgotten ones, the 49 percent, sniff, sniff,

10 to 1 the buses are all from Madison. The people in the Fox River Valley actually work and have jobs. They not on their daddy's checkbook at school or on welfare.
I guess the rallying cry could be "Meet at Lambert Field and on to Washington".

What they need to turn their backs on is the dem clowns in Madison who slashed the tires on 40 vans that the Republicans had rented to take their voters to the polls.

The tires were slashed in Milwaukee. Not a big difference to those outside Wisconsin, but The People's Republic of Madison is the pits to anyone from Wisconsin.

Well, I'm originally from WI. My recollection of Milwaukee is of a dirty town, while Madison was rather pretty. Just my $.02.

My post had nothing to do with beauty contests between Milwaukee and Madistan. Milwaukee simply IS where the tires were slashed on election day.

FWIW,The People's Republic of Madison is and has been filled with left wing nuts since at least the early 1960's. As they say, beauty is only skin deep.

Yah, that's right. That'll really show ol' Dubya what they think of him, and doncha know, George will capitulate right away, resign from office, and declare he shouldn't have stolen the election from that pious and righteous Senator Kerry. Right away, give back those 60,000 votes stolen in Ohio, yah, that's the ticket. (/sarcasm)

If I were there, I would be standing, & holding a spray can of mace...
Anyone who turned around to face me,
would quickly turn back around...

"FWIW,The People's Republic of Madison is and has been filled with left wing nuts since at least the early 1960's. As they say, beauty is only skin deep."

Naw, it's been longer ago than that. Bob LaFollette Jr. was a Progressive "Republican" that drew a lot of his power from Madison and the UW-Madison back in the 1920's and through the Depression, while he was in the Senate, stoking the New Deal for the Democrats and FDR when the Democrats weren't going for it. Bob LaFollette was defeated in the Senate race of 1946 by Joe McCarthy. A fact that was not forgotten by the entrenched liberals at the University.

Neither did mine. I already said it was just my two cents worth.

If you are on the parade route, if one of them turns toward you in a treatening manner, pepper spray 'em!

See what happens when the Packers lose in the playoffs?

Actually its probably a lot of union state employees who have off Monday for MLK day.

Bus tickets are still available for $90

Sounds like an entrepreneur's dream come true! If I had a chauffeur's license I'm sure I could rent a bus and charge $80 and still make a great profit for those 2 days........
