Let freedom reign
Dear Undecided Voters:
Please decide.

Teachers ejected from Bush speech
Clearly dangerous traitors, were wearing insidious t-shirts that said 'protect our civil liberties.'

Bush taught three Oregon schoolteachers a new lesson in irony - or tragedy - Thursday night when his campaign removed them from a Bush speech and threatened them with arrest simply for wearing t-shirts that said 'Protect Our Civil Liberties.'

The women were ticketed to the event, admitted into the event, and were then approached by event officials before the president's speech. They were asked to leave and to turn over their tickets.
"The US Constitution was not available on site for comment, but expressed in a written statement support for 'the freedom of speech' and 'of the press' among other civil liberties, a Democratic news release said."

Fun fact 1: County rebooblican chairman Bryan Platt responded "I wish (the women) would have just dressed in a way that was without that kind of intent to incite any kind of incident."

Fun fact 2: When Dick Cheney visited Eugene, Oregon on Sept. 17, a woman named Perry Patterson was charged with criminal trespass for blurting the word "No" when Cheney said that Bush has made the world safer.
