False portrayal[edit]

The reaction of a couple of hundred gay and bi people is hardly representitive as "public reception". Who has written such nonsense? What about polls? Post-convention bounce? People watching Bush speaking on the final day. That`s relevant, not some LGBT people.

Inre: The easily researched demonstrably false statement that George Bush Jr. was not delayed by thousands of Conservatives with concerns for civil liberties, Christians, trade unionists, environmental groups, groups representing POC concerns, community organizers, social workers, amongst others that shut down central Philly with full media coverage. It is an early example of the new RNC push towards a new Nationalist platform of law and order deliverables based in metaphysical explanation. For example the oft repeated denial of violent targeted raids on preschools, puppetry warehouses, radio stations, community centres and thousands of detainment/ arrests in advance of the 2000 RNC convention in Philadelphia. The arrests are a matter of public record, there is live print and video of this event and court records available through the City, the National Lawyers Guild & Fox 29 Philly.
