A photo op visit by Bush is scheduled for Thursday through the weekend. Bush is expected to visit fire zones in Agau Dulce and Malibu on Thursday.
No protests against Bush have been formally organized as of yet. But this fire disaster’s links to global warming, wars for oil and unplanned urban sprawl are more than enough reason to protest Bush’s visit to Southern California this week.
See you in the streets.
