Let the Idiot have his invitation only "Town Hall Meetings"
All they do is serve as are pep rallies for those blind followers who will swallow whatever swill is being served.
As long as they keep those away who have an open mind, they won't be gaining any ground.

This is a win-win situation for us. He can't risk having the non-believers in his audience for fear of being disrupted,
and we are the ones he needs to convince.

This administration has been exposed for how it operates, we just need to keep driving the message home. Bush
does not care to address anyone, anywhere, who does not accept everything he spouts as gospel. He does not
care what any of us think. He serves big business and his own personal agenda, period.

News Flash: "He was received warmly in Westfield", per MSNBC. What crap.

1. He plans on winning the battle with the media and PR....
This is just a stunt to keep it in the news and on the corporate media. The PR will take care of the heavy lifting.

2. Warmly? by an invitation only audience? Gee whiz...what a shock!
Would you boo the bride and groom at a wedding to which you were invited?

3. The only problem with the invitation only crowd is
it's the only thing the media ever sees, thus making it look like there'ss no opposition!

SOmehow, our opposition HAS to get media attention!

If Shrub ever puts out a real plan...with details...the Dems could have their own town hall meetings, and attract media attention. It's very difficult to argue against something when all you have are a few clues.

4. I disagree
The problem is all the news clips that show an adoring crowd. The public is too stupid to know what's really going on. They think most of America loves this asshole. How often do you see news clips of the protesters outside the same rally?
