65 million to 80 million on RNC Convention security
they are training people for chemical warfare, and snipers etc, they said it should bring in 250,000,000.000. Damn aren't they a tad over the top?

live on the majority report.

4. Go, if you can
It will be safe. The only real danger is from a phony terrorist attack courtesy of Bushcorp, and Im afraid that is a very real possibility.

5. You could use it as the set for a dystopian sci-fi movie...
except it's now real life. :( Welcome to our future:

Robocop
Demolition Man
Dr. Strangelove
THX1138
Logan's Run
Blade Runner
Metropolis
Equilibrium
etc.

It sucks to be us. :(

6. That isn't federal money, right? The parties pay for their own conventions
no?

Or do we pay for that because Bush is president?
