Anyone here besides me think over a million Brits will protest evil AWOL?
Ought to be quite an awe inspiring spectacle, should it not? Proudly witnessing our something less than popular Commander-in-thief a.k.a The Evil War Chimp, being gloriously crowned by the people themselves - as the world's most detested human being!! I really hope they go through with that plan to topple a Chimpy statue - Saddam style! Surely CSPAN will do it justice, don't cha think?
I JUST CAN'T WAIT!!!!

1. There is no way to say, it would be good news,
even though it won't be reported in the US.

Me! Me! Me!
I think London will be shut down tight by marchers. Even FAUX won't be able to spin this one.

Supposedly the Secret Service has gotten "shoot first" authorization, though that might just be a rumor.

Any serious rioting or such will probably tip Blair into history's dustbin. Then the Brits will be pulled out of Iraq, to the terminal embarrassment of Dubya. Then...

Oh, sorry. Just daydreaming...

6. "though that might just be a rumor"

IIRC, not a rumor. even if they didn't GET permission, they certainly did ASK for it.

3. Nope
My guess is that he won't end up being subjected to it. He wriggles out of everything. If he can't get out of it any other way he'll end up cancelling the trip. The Brits will end up being a lot angrier than they are now.

7. I don't deny that the little prick might well succeed in avoiding it...
But it will happen for rest of the world (outside Middle America, of course) to see!!

15. Good
If he cancels the trip it will be a total humiliation for the Deserter-in-Chief. The protestors would have won and * will have backed down like the worthless cowardly weasel that he is.

It's been said that whistle ass isn't the only one visiting the UK next week.

13. The latest Fraudministration spin on the protest
is that it would provide "an opportunity for Al Qaeda" to launch a terrorist attack against the pResident. So it doesn't matter how many show up, Dipshit will be kept safely away from them :eyes:

Junior has already admitted he never watches the news or reads a paper. I can guess that he's too fucking stupid to surf the net. What if he actually believes that he's as beloved by the entire world as FAUX News claims he is, because the PNAC'ers tell him so. How would he ever know otherwise if he's kept in the dark and is never allowed to see a protestor?

It's no stretch to think that Junior is clueless but can anybody be THAT removed from reality??

28. Well, officially it's Scotland Yard supposedly saying so....
But I'm sure they're doing so based on PNAC "intelligence"....

Al-Qaeda terrorists using the cover of anti-war protests are a real threat to the safety of US President George W. Bush during his state visit to London next week, Britain's most senior policemen have warned.

"We are not so concerned about some anti-war protester throwing rotten fruit at the president. Our worry now is the more dangerous elements who may be here," said a senior Scotland Yard source quoted in The Times newspaper Wednesday.

19. I think this could be the secret GOP plan...
Bush goes to London where he cannot be kept safe. (That large of a mob can do whatever it wishes.)

Something bad happens to him.

Cheney becomes President.

JEB is made VP.

Cheney declines the GOP nomination due to "poor health."

JEB rides the sympathy vote into office.

I feel so badly that we can't demonstrate as other countries do.

22. I think Smirky will say: "oops, forgot i have a hair appointment that week
and cancel.

But I sure as hell hope he goes. He'll finally get to see for himself what we would say to him if we could get out of the free speech cages.

32. Course he can! That's one a dubya's favorite singers Pariah Carey!
But generally it's true - Shrub's not much of a speller. And quite clearly not much of a thinker. But let us not misunderestimate his will to do evil!!
