The BBHOF should be able to send all the protesters running away by simply showing the film 'Bull Durham'. I know it would send me away!

(The REAL script)
To: SirFishalot
Have Tim Robbins and the "intelligent left" read the First Amendment? It states, in part, that the Government shall make no law against one's speech. The BBHOF isn't a government organization. It has every right to have whomever they wish speak there.
Robbins talks about his constitutional rights being usurped, and then speaks to the press corps luncheon about it. And the speech gets coverage on the networks and in the papers. Boy, the government sure is silencing him and his lefty cronies.

There's no way I can get to Cooperstown this weekend, unless I can convince the family to move the annual family reunion up there, but here's a counter demonstration sign idea:
This is About Professional Sports, NOT Politics.
DEAL WITH IT.

"Robbins talks about his constitutional rights being usurped, and then speaks to the press corps luncheon about it."Lefties can't quote the Constitution right because they hate it and always have. It stands in the way of leftist domination of the masses. Pesky thing.
I want to know WHY the Constitution has suddenly gone from being an 'evolving document' which the left wished to change at will to further their agenda and suddenly became precious to them?? WHY do they suddenly care about the Constitution NOW....why didn't they care about it BEFORE, when their emperor was TRASHING it??

With all of your help, StopDrLaura.com made history one year later on March 30, 2001 with the cancellation of Dr. Laura Schlessinger's television show. [snip] THANKS: There are so many people to thank for standing by us and helping from day one. We'll try to list some, but I'm sure we'll miss many. The StopDrLaura.com co-founders: John Aravosis, Joel Lawson, William Waybourn, Alan Klein and Robin Tyler. Our local organizers in over 34 cities, including Andy Thayer, John Selig, and Corey Johnson who did a lot of national work in addition to working in their local cities of Chicago, Dallas, and San Francisco. Organizations like the Horizon Foundation, Communication Works, TomPaine.com, Don't Panic, and the Human Rights Campaign (which gave us a generous donation). Celebrities like David Lee of "Frasier" fame, Susan Sarandon, Pat Schroeder, Christopher Landon, and Bruce Vilanch. Great reporting by Mike Signorile, GAYBC, the LA Times, Hollywood Reporter, New York Times, Variety, Access Hollywood, Broadcasting & Cable, Gay.com and Reuters (among many others). And the assistance of friends like David Goldman, Stuart Paul, and so many others who helped this campaign become a success.
So much for Free Speech, eh? Censor a talk show host and yet it is a tragedy when Americans say that they only want to hear their entertainers sing and act.

"Cooperstown Police Chief Pippen has been notified of our planned demonstration and he has indicated that he does not have any objections as long as we restrict our activity to the sidewalk & we do not obstruct anyone."
They'll be in for a big surprise... There isn't any sidewalk in front of the HOF!!!!
Plus it's raining like hell.
Hail to Chief Pippen.
They'll have to go across the street to the post office and probably won't be noticed by anyone that counts.
If I had only known this was happening today I surely be there. Have appointment to get truck worked on and can't cancel. DAMN IT. I love hassling those idiots.
To: SirFishalot
Also the Main Street bridge is closed due to construction. Very few tourist and almost no traffic. I was just there checking the mail not 30 minutes ago. This ought to be funny.
