As you may know, The Great Bush/Cheney
"America, Yes We Can, And We're Going to Do it in a Canadian Bus" Tour invaded my beloved Buckeye State today.
I just watched a wrap-up of the thrilling events on the Ohio News Network, and at least I've moved past anger and toward the light of laughter when watching my fellow Americans being interviewed by the fawning local press, praising Bush because "I want honesty in my president, and with Bush, I get both honesty and integrity," to quote one such enthusiastic rally-goer.
Luckily, they spent three or so seconds on the protesters, long enough for me to enjoy a protester carrying a HUGE sign that read, very legibly, "IF YOU KNEW KERRY VOTED AGAINST BODY ARMOR, WHY DID YOU SEND AMERICAN TROOPS TO WAR WITHOUT IT?" Now,
that's some good stuff.
When Bill Clinton traveled around the country campaigning for reelection in 1996, did Republicans show up with signage and Whitewater shirts? And just to give the Republicans a break for a minute, when Clinton traveled around the world, did hoards of welcoming crowds ever greet him this way?
