Around 50 people have bared their bottoms in protest against APEC and the visiting US President George W Bush. A group calling themselves 'Bums for Bush' exposed themselves in Sydney's Hyde Park during a protest rally this afternoon (07.09.2007). Organiser Will Saunders says its a fun and Australian way to get the anti-Iraq war message across.

In a protest against the Iraq war and global warming, dozens of people bared their buttocks on Friday in a Sydney park not far from where world leaders were gathered for a regional summit.

24. I thought some Americans DID moon Herr Decider directly
Or am I just imagining things? Seems like I recall someone on DU discussing it a couple of years ago.

15. Bush is shielded from all protestors. Makes an ass of him ultimately, anyway.
Let him be oblivious. The rest of us are not.

18. Unfortunately, the "clown president" never saw that protest
And none of his advisors are brave enough to bring it to his attention.
