You're kidding yourself if you think this is about speech. These anti-Bush people have proven themselves to be violent time and time again.

Look at the Inauguration Day parade -- ACLU sued to let anti-Bush protestors close to the route. Then they were destructive, taking down flags at the Navy memorial and surging toward police lines, and it all got physical.

This is not the same thing as peaceful protests against Clinton.

With so much virulent hatred against Bush being shown by so-called mainstream liberals, it is all too easy to imagine even kookier people ... yeah, I guess that's possible ... deciding it would be noble to take him out.

I say protect him at all costs.

The mainstream media sees to it that he is aware of all the protesters. They don't need to be close to him to get their message out.

This is about 'free speech zones' and you know it.

If any group of protesters get violent or disorderly, arrest them. That however is NOT justification for prior restraint of protesters by designating them to a 'free speech zone' well ahead of any event.

It was wrong when Clinton did it, and it's just as wrong now.

Now to be fair the ACLU didn't care when Clinton did it, and now they seem to care. So we know the ACLU is a bunch of hypocrites, just like a bunch of FReepers.

Neither side cares about free speech. They only care if they can deny it to the other side. They're just wrestling over who wields unconstututional big government.

They were also throwing eggs at the motorcade during the Inauguration. Who wants to get egged? Oh, I forgot. Egg thrower's have rights too. It freedom of expression.
