Housewives harangue Bush at Busan protest
21 minutes ago

BUSAN, South Korea (AFP) - The huge security operation thrown up around an Asia-Pacific summit faced its first test -- from a handful of housewives angry at US President George W. Bush.

Four middle-aged women, who unfurled banners and shouted slogans, were hauled away by some of the 300 riot police deployed in front of the Westin Chosun Hotel, following Bush's arrival earlier Wednesday.

"Bush get out of South Korea," said one of the half-dozen women who turned up to protest outside the hotel.

South Korean security forces have clamped a ring of steel around the southern city of Busan after anti-globalization activists and farmers vowed to rally 100,000 people against the
APEC summit on Friday.

2. That's a great picture of him.
He looks frightened. Kudos to these women for having the chutzpah to step up and be heard. Kicked and nominated.

3. That was my first thought...
The little chicken-shit looks to be shaking in his "cowboy" boots.

11. I hope he lives everyday of his life in fear
It's just too bad he'll never have to fear making enough money to support his family, making his mortgage or the fear of getting sick and not having insurance to see a Dr.

19. I'll second that sentiment.
Having never worked a day in his life, how in the world can he relate to the working people of the world.

14. It's Mrs. Bush. She seems to have gotten highlights recently.
I wonder what it's like to travel everywhere in a security bubble, 24-7-365 and know that you will be greeted with protests almost everywhere you go? The chimp looks scared and old and tired.

8. Pistol very much obvious under the SS man==big one too
Bush is not having much success on his little foray--actually why is it he is going there? This seems more like a fling, than a visit to garner support and promote understanding. He is saying awful things to China, on this good will tour. Who writes his stuff? Ralph Reed?

The woman in the photo is Laura--she has a peculiar large bump on the back of her head in all photos I have seen. I often suspect it is a little bit of a wig placed there to give her some lift---besides her xanax and her cigarettes.

18. MSM had predicted that Bush would receive a "polite"
reception in SK, as opposed to the "rude" reception he received in South America. No mention of free-speech zones or security barriers, or repressive police tactics.

This kind of "reporting" PMO...

21. The old Bushism springs to mind...
Something about there being a thing as too much freedom? I bet he wasn't too happy seeing middle-aged women being arrested for protesting him.
