eh? My Dad just called to share about Kerry's visit to Las Vegas...13,000 at rally. Bush came as well "invitation only" meeting at veteran's center.

Cheney is coming where I live this weekend. Paper says where to pick up tickets...but we have learned there is a list of people not allowed in. A status symbol to be on the list I might add.

This administration is obsessed with secrecy at every level.
