Bush Scandal In Fargo!!! Support Apolyton, buy Civilization 2

People here (even some Republicans) are enraged after it came to light a few days ago that Bush's cronies had a "Do not Admit" list when he came to Fargo a few days after the inaguration. The people on the list are not left-wing activists or trouble-makers, just average people in this area. This is unlike other rallies, where there was no list, you just had to do a "loyalty oath" and get kicked out if you criticize Bush.

The questions are:
1. How did the administration get the info to make the list?
2. wouldn't this violate one's constitutional right to petition one's government?

"1. How did the administration get the info to make the list?"

Likely from people known to have views opposed to the administration who might cause trouble.

"2. wouldn't this violate one's constitutional right to petition one's government?"

For a private rally, no, no more then you have a right to go into GWB's bedroom at night to yell at him.

But Shi, this secrecy is destroying our democracy! Bush is obviously spying on the good people of Fargo!

The Stasi compiled a huge list of people known to have views opposed to the administration who might cause trouble from a sweeping network of informants.

Who made the Fargo list, and who contributed to it?

In any case, I'm not too upset, since it's my understanding it was a private function...

Bush is a PUBLIC OFFICIAL, If Bush wanted it to be a rally for his fellow Republicans he should say so, if not than it is a PUBLIC event, not a private one.

The problem is, this is indicitive of the overall apporchability of Bush. You can't even protest him in his presence anymore. If you have an anti-Bush sign on a route he is traveling, you will be arrested.

First... "apporchability"?

Second... I've seen anti-bush signs on TV where he has been present, so your implication that ALL those that do so WILL be arrested is kind of stretching it a "tad"...

And Last.. Come on, desperation time... stick to abusing him for real meaningful reasons... I'm a Republican, and I can find far more things to attack him on that are far more important than this

Eh, the right to petition generally means the right to petition CONGRESS.

People don't care about what the Constitution says specifically. The point is, that whatever their views are, the Constitution perfectly matches it.

Since when do politicians want voices of dissent in the crowd? I find the practice of "loading" the audience with supporters to be intellectually dishonest, but Bush et al didn't invent it.

I do wish people would make up their mind. Please establish a rule set so that I can tell if Bush is being a MORAN or simply evil incarnate.
