I just heard KO saying that Bush cancelled his trip to Stanford because the students blocked all the roads - delightful. Anyone has pix.

:toast:

Take back the streets everyone!

And once again, the students will lead us!!!!

I am so excited!:bounce: I am so excited!:bounce:I am so excited!:bounce:I am so excited!:bounce:I am so excited!:bounce:I am so excited!:bounce:I am so excited!:bounce:


Get the hell out of our beautiful State you War Monger!

I am so excited!:bounce: I am so excited!:bounce:I am so excited!:bounce:I am so excited!:bounce:I am so excited!:bounce:I am so excited!:bounce:I am so excited!:bounce:

the fact that they manhandled the Chinese protester at the WH.....

That reminds me of another dictator. He was Italian.

I figured they had him strung up by his balls.

But I do like the Mussolini comparison.

Of course, that's an effigy of our dictator. With Mussolini, it wasn't exactly an effigy.

Fabulous :D:

Way to go, Stanford!!

since Santa Monica College turned their backs (literally) on gov. musclehead when he spoke at their graduation ceremony. Students and teachers held up signs, turned their backs to him, among other things. It was beautiful--brought a tear to my eye!

GO STANFORD, you rock!

What a cool idea.

I am just hearing of it and am so proud of these students... They forced the liar, leaker and thief to have to change his plans...

What a bunch of cowards!

since KO said it - can't find a thing.

why haven't we seen this on MSM. Thanks KO.

conservative school. That's news.

I`m hoping that very soon the criminal in the White House won`t be able to travel any road in the country without seeing or hearing protesters. Screw the inside-the-beltway babble. Regular Americans have had their fill.

that I can find!

Guess the newsreaders are busy with the Tom Cruise baby story or something else really important.

at Stanford, so we know it's true.

TG for Olbermann. Go, Keith!

but I watch all three network's newscasts, so I'm not sure which one it was. (CBS I see in full, then I flip back and forth between NBC and ABC)

Anyway, they showed more cops (in full riot gear) than protesters, but I caught a glimpse of a Si Si Puede sign and one of the Amnistia-Answer ones, then they showed the prez helicopter flying overhead and that was it. All of 30 seconds, at the most, probably less.

Go Stanford!

The SJ Mercury buries it:

At Stanford, where Bush moved a meeting planned for the Hoover Institution to a campus home, a peaceful but spirited group of about 1,000 students and community activists gathered to await Bush's arrival. Many waved placards and chanted against U.S. involvement in Iraq.

They also undercount the protestors in both San Jose and at Stanford. Chickens.

Associated Press
Hundreds more gathered for a protest later in the afternoon at Stanford University, where Bush had scheduled a private meeting at the conservative Hoover Institution with scholars, including Hoover fellow and former Secretary of State George P. Shultz.

Plans to hold the meeting on campus were scuttled when protesters blocked Bush's motorcade from going through the only entrance. Shultz, who was already hosting a private dinner for Bush later at his Palo Alto home, had the session moved to his two-story, gray-shingled house.

At least three people were arrested for sitting in an intersection during the demonstration, according to organizers. Stanford police couldn't immediately confirm the arrests.
Edit headline

:evilgrin:

to hit MSM

Mercury News

President Bush's visit to Stanford University's Hoover Institution was quickly moved to another location after more than 1,000 protesters converged around the Hoover tower.

The White House said the protesters blocked the only road into the central areaof the campus where Hoover is located, which forced a meeting with several Hoover fellows to be moved to the campus home of former Secretary of State George Shultz, a Hoover fellow who organized the gathering.

The motorcade instead traveled to the house, which is on the outer edge of campus.

Story

We kept him out of Crawford last week. Now this!!

:woohoo:

and powerless

:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

She called and said, "I can't find George Bush!" and I mapquested the rally for her.

lol

She can barely carry on a conversation. Her short term memory is gone. She repeats the same things over and over.

Every time I see her she says "That George Bush is so awful. Your dad would just HATE him." Then 5 minutes later, she says "That George Bush is so awful. Your dad would just HATE him."

So see, even my senile mother can tell what a disaster the man is. LOL

It's gonna get hotter Dumbya. CNN just had a 15 sec clip about the San Jose protests - nothing about the Stanford block out.

Edit add.
