Protesters disrupt Bush coronation and drunken orgies of excess; Obnoxious Republicans display their ‘family values’ in D.C.

If you read most mainstream media accounts, you’d think there wasn’t much of a protest during Bush’s January 2005 coronation week. You probably wouldn’t read about the protesters who obtained tickets to the inauguration from their Congress reps and disrupted Bush’s address with chants and signs. Or the protester who threw a snowball that hit Cheney’s vehicle as he was waving. Or the thousands who marched and clashed with police and actually halted Bush’s motorcade. Or the hundreds who didn’t quit when the parade stopped and protested in front of those inaugural orgies of excess, making the tuxedo-and-fur-clad, drunk Republican partiers feel some heat. Or the thousands who attended more hip counter-inaugural parties. Or the family-value Republicans who paid for prostitutes and made fools of themselves in public. Or the DC mayor who criticized protesters for supposedly being selfish and for the few who shouted obscenities, then hypocritically ripped off an obscenity to a reporter
himself. Read it here – writer Jackson Thoreau was there.
