west virginia gets another bush-heckle incident
just another version of the “bush doesn’t see it” issue with the republican campaign…
West Virginia Man Heckles Presidents, Gets Fired: ‘You Disagree With Them and It All Turns Evil’ [ap via tbo, august 22, 2004]Hiller was ushered out of Hedgesville High School on Tuesday after shouting his disagreement with Bush’s comments about the war in Iraq war and the search for weapons of mass destruction. The crowd had easily drowned out Hiller with its chant: “Four more years.”
there’s more to the story, like the part where the heckler loses his job, but it’s more interesting to me that the “ushered out of…” news keeps going.
[snarky comment follows]
if bush can’t keep his opponents out of high schools with the full weight of the secret service at his disposal, how is he going to keep the terrorists out of my shopping malls? what if these people start wearing explosives instead of t-shirts?
if he can’t protect himself, how can he protect the rest of us?
