Bush Sr actually rolled down his window and waved when he saw the Free Republic signs.

I always liked that man!

You're welcome. My Il friends actually took a really nice picture of Jim Rob and I that I want sent to me. I am going to have to call them later to see if they ever made it to Chicago. They were supposed to land in that storm.

WOW - what excitement you had. Not to mention skating too close to the edge there with the anarc idiots. Thanks for sharing with us.

Thanks for the account! I actually encountered about 1,000 screaming leftists while walking home from work last night. Consider yourself lucky you were in such good company.

I don't know about any ball, but a friend had lunch or something next to W on the 20th and said you get energy just being in the same room as him.

The local lefties had a protest rally yesterday at Westlake Center, at the heart of the downtown shopping district. They were protesting the "Fascist Bush Regime."

Thanks for the report - I probably wouldn't have been able to restrain myself when those whack-job assclowns came a disruptin'. I especially get upset when they do their antics in front of kids.

I saw about 12 grey-haired hippy wannabes at the state capitol today protesting Bush. I didn't see the anarchist crowd there though.

I thought anarchists were "non-violent". Well, they never gave me a problem personally. They only pick on women from my experiences in dealing with them. Real "tough guys".

The aroma of Patchouli oil, Starbucks, and Ganja filled the air.

Then again, in that regard, it wasn't really that much different than any other day in Seattle.

They came strictly to cause trouble. They had drums, were yelling and had a ridiculously large sign with heavy poles to hold it up. By the time it was over, the thing was crumbled on the ground in a heap.
