Doubt the claim that Bush events are carefully screened so that only fervent Bush backers get in, and no one else is allowed to see the president? Check out this article, with a number of eyewitness accounts of organizers tossing out people who want to see the president speak if they even look like they might not support him–even if they have valid tickets to the event.
Do not doubt for a moment why the president is always greeted by cheering, adoring crowds: no one but the most fervent true believers are allowed within miles of the president, even when driving by in a motorcade.
Thanks for the tip-off.
At the next Bush rally, be sure to look and smell like I just came from a “Christian Reform” potluck dinner–dripping with Southern fried chicken steak grease and asundry mayonaise dressings. Suggestion, if you look the least bit liberal, dress your kids to look like either “JonBenet Ramsey” if they are girls, or the mini-televangelist if boys. Remember, when asked, respond with “Say wha? Dunno, go ask the little woman” You’ll pass for Bushies for sure.
