Bush protesters want investigation
People who protested Bush's La Crosse appearance May 7 are asking for an investigation into police conduct toward protesters and are questioning the presence of Fort McCoy soldiers at the event.
A group calling itself Coulee Region Concerned Citizens met with La Crosse Mayor John Medinger on Wednesday, accusing police and "Republican Party operatives" of violating their First Amendment rights and other acts.
The group asked U.S. Sen. Russ Feingold, D-Wis., to investigate who paid for about 260 service members from Fort McCoy who were bused to the rally and given tickets by the Republican Party - violating "the absolute prohibition against the military engaging in political activities."
