Chilling effects
At a Bush Fourth of July public appearance in West Virginia:
Two Bush opponents, taken out of the crowd in restraints by police, said they were told they couldn’t be there because they were wearing shirts that said they opposed the president.
On the 4th of July. When we commemorate having declared our independence from Britain through a document saying we opposed an unelected mentally imbalanced hereditary leader named George.

Harris' brevity angers residents

BRADENTON - U.S. Rep. Katherine Harris had planned a quick town meeting Thursday night at Bradenton Kiwanis Hall.
... ...
The crowd's mood already was testy before the meeting began. Security guards and Harris' staff confiscated any written material people tried to bring into the hall.
The confiscated literature included analysis of the Medicare prescription bills passed in the House and Senate in June as well as a chart showing Harris' voting record since she began her term in January.
