The scads of people leaving the Metro today looked as though the Republicans had emptied their white suburbs and encouraged their party faithful and other tourists et. al. to come down here to show solidarity for the motorcade. It is a political event, and so have the last several weeks been with all the Repubs in town to cheer on the Bushies and make the Iraqi prison scandal disappear, and it looks as though they have succeeded. First, we had the WW2 celebration for more an occasion for more Bush-Cheney speeches, then Bush talks about the future of Iraq on prime time TV, then Bushie goes to Europe, and George visits the pope, then Tom Brokaw gets huge mileage for his new book and interviews Bush, then Bush does Normandy, and now the funeral which has taken up days and will take up some more. When are Dems going to be allowed to take over the city, have parades, march, and speech making wihtout being arrested. Repugs do not own patriotism. Here's hoping our day will come, the first Tuesday in November. Been waiting for this for 4 years. maria
