US wants ban on protests during Bush visit

Anti-war protesters claim that US authorities have demanded a rolling "exclusion zone" around President George Bush during his visit, as well as a ban on marches in parts of central London.

The Stop The War Coalition said yesterday that it had been told by the police that it would not be allowed to demonstrate in Parliament Square and Whitehall next Thursday - a ban it said it was determined to resist. The coalition says that it has also been told by British officials that American officials want a distance kept between Mr Bush and protesters, for security reasons and to prevent their appearance in the same television shots.

These guys are the biggest manipulators of the media. We had the landing on the ship off the coast of San Diego with the 'Mission Accomplished' banner that he had nothing to do with, the ban on photographing American wounded soldiers and returning dead at Dover, his non-attendance to ANY military funerals, his 'free speech zones set up down the street and around the corner and now a ban on protesters. Bush loves the First Amendment as long as he can choreograph the shot and avoid responsibility for the decisions he's made. What a weak man.

They are reporting that there are people who would love to do harm to the leader of the free world. And they are heavily reporting that Bush likes the fact that a free, democratic society can protest without fear of being shot. These are not stupid people, just misguided.
