Bush brings war campaign to Cleveland


Cleveland's City Club members and their guests bought more than 1,000 tickets at prices that ranged between $50 and $100 to listen to President Bush discuss the war in Iraq tomorrow. The luncheon speech is sold out at the Renaissance Cleveland Hotel on Public Square.

But the attendees won't include some prominent Ohio Republicans.

When a president's popularity plummets as Bush's has, other politicians often avoid public appearances with them. Some, including Sen. Mike DeWine, Sen. George Voinovich and Rep. Steve LaTourette, say they're skipping Bush's speech because of prior commitments.

DeWine is visiting his convalescing father in Florida and accompanying him to spring training baseball games. LaTourette previously scheduled a staff retreat in Washington. Voinovich has meetings in Washington that he couldn't reschedule. Gov. Bob Taft, whose popularity is even lower than Bush's, isn't expected to attend, either. Taft noted that he attended Bush's speech last month outside Columbus, as did Voinovich. Today's event isn't on the schedules of either Jim Petro or Ken Blackwell, the GOP candidates to replace Taft, their spokesmen said
BASEBALL lmao he is too busy because he has to go to a baseball game.
A staff retreat ? This just keeps getting better and better.A big screw you I would say.When you get blown off by someone who has an approval of 15% now thats pretty bad.(taft)

to attend, either.

:rofl: :rofl:

Just to get someone to show up .Dogcatcher that is due for reelection until 2010?

There is something very ironic about that.

Huh.

But I am sure he will vote for all of bu$h's pet measures when back on Capitol Hill.

Turning down the "president" is some sort of Federal crime or something?

having to "take their coke bottles back to the store for the refunds", or "washing their hair" that night.. just can't seem to make it..

Bet any of these shits would shoot one of their mothers to avoid being captured on Video with Chimpy the Drunk :)

unprecidented freedom to do whatever he wants.

They pretend to distance themselves, but continue to enable Bushco's destruction of constitutional democracy.

that's a surprise, isn't she usually pretty reasonable?

things up in a metropolitan area - he did before . . .

Bush's chat is part of his monthlong campaign to rebuild flagging support for the war in Iraq. White House spokesman Scott McClellan says the president will discuss how the "three elements of our strategy - the political, economic and security" reinforce one another. Bush will give examples of progress in Iraq and how his strategy is succeeding.
