Tampa, Florida Protest Success at Bush/Cheney/Jeb Fundraiser
BUSH PROTEST IN CENTURY CITY : LA Indymedia...DISTRIBUTE PLEA SE!!
Fellow Concerned Americans (NeoLIBS)
The Tampa, Florida protest was quite successful! In excess of 250 participants (coming and going) w/ a hard count of 204 +...No constitutionally prohibited protest zones... We succeeded in offering enlightening discourse to certainly many of the attendees as they arrived, departed or lounged about outside (much to their chagrin... and embarrassment... and of course they should be... a self serving greedy lot they are) . Major topics were of course quid pro quo government, favoring the "few"... at the expense of "the many". This is of course class warfare... I will debate economic policy any day with any of these "executives" They have no sound economic pillar to upon which to stand!
Accordingly, economic policy that will result in eventual economic catastrophe heretofore unseen in the history of this nation (See the Concordcoalition.org). Also a war that was engaged under false pretenses. Necessarily the president and his confederates were voiciferously called to account relative to the falsehoods, lies and deceipt undertaken in order to persuade an undiscerning and vulnerable American people. Again GW's legitimacy was called into account and as well, the marionette-like qualities of his administration. The request was made for the president to "come clean" in various areas of concern, and to provide "The American People" an "unvarnished account" as Dickey C.. likes to say! Accompanying photos documenting this day are provided...
Again I might add, the Mass Media provided a less than accurate accounting of the growing protest fervor in this country as is increasingly the case. Virtually ignoring protests numbering in the thousands in NYC and LA. The is Media Corpocracy and it's "bought and paid for" brand of censorship of the TRUTH necessitate that the WORD of protests such as these occuring in Tampa, LA, San Fran and NYC be spread on forums such as this... In order to INSPIRE and MOTIVATE people across this nation... to do likewise in increasing numbers, strength and volume until the corporate media can NO LONGER IGNORE THE TRUTH!
Curiously, the pseudo-pres. (GW), has changed his plans to go to Philadelphia... as a LARGE protest was planned there. It was HOT! It was FUN! We had people ranging from a few months to 84 years of age! Bigger and Better next time! Questions? Talk soon. SHARE... TALK... INSPIRE... MOTIVATE!
