What if we aren't commies like them? Some of us might wanna help sway the president in a better direction than the one's currently giving him respect and adulation. I can't understand how the morons in this country like these guys think that this kind of activity helps their cause. Embrace Bush and become his electorat, his base and then you too can influence the way people you hate do. Learn.

I haven't read this link, don't really care to since it's probaby just more of the same Doing Something but really Doing Nothing protesting that's so common.

But, I think this is a good segue to this question: Why do we have Inaugurations for sitting Presidents? Seems like a lot of pomp and circumstance for nothing.

What does the Oath of Office entail? Do Presidents only swear to do the job honestly for 4 years? Is there some technical reason for it? Or is it just tradition?

I'll be in DC. But I'll be doing something more than turning my bloody fucking back. I think this sucks ass.


Turn Your Back On Bush
by w1ld at 8:23 pm EST, Dec 22, 2004

] The election is over. The fight is not.
]
] Elections are only one part of democracy. We need to
] think strategically about direct action, learn from a
] rich history of nonviolent activism, and develop new
] tactics to take on this administration.
]
] Let's start from the start: Inauguration Day.
]
] On January 20th, 2005, we're calling for a new kind of
] action. The Bush administration has been successful at
] keeping protesters away from major events in the last few
] years by closing off areas around events and using
] questionable legal strategies to outlaw public dissent.
] We can use these obstacles to develop new tactics. On
] Inauguration day, we don't need banners, we don't need
] signs, we just need people.
]
] We're calling on people to attend inauguration as they
] are: members of the public. Once through security and at
] the procession, at a given signal, we'll all turn our
] backs on Bush. A simple, clear and coherent message.
