Bush's Neighbor Threatens Peace Protestor

Hi Folks,

You may all remember the recent posting about the woman who's son was killed in Iraq. She and a group of protestors have camped outside Bush's ranch while he takes his extended paid vacation on his hobby ranch in Texas.

Well, one of Bush's neighbors is so annoyed that there might be Americans who don't agree with him that he's taken to threatening the protestors by firing his shotgun into the air near the protestors. When asked what message he was sending, he replied "I'm getting ready for dove season" and "Figure it out for yourself." Does anyone else hear the echoes of KKK sympathizers being interviewed in the 1960s? These half-brained attempts at subtle innuendo are typical of the fascist right in the South.

There are millions of voters in this country who will support his actions and statements and even laugh at them. That is who/what we are up against. This is not simply a disagreement about policy. It is a fundamental disagreement about the nature of democracy and liberty. Those who pretend that people like this gun toting hobby farmer are just like their Democratic opponents but with different policy preferences are whistling past the grave yard.
