1. Good for them! That fraud shouldn't be able to go
ANYWHERE without seeing reminders that we're ON to him.

12. when bush came to San Diego
Edited on Sun May-07-06 12:44 AM by cyclezealot
we welcomed him with our fingers extended. Route was only entry into the civic center, so he had to see our block long line of protesters.. Afraid I was not so civil.. OUr greetings were 'shame , shame' as Bush went in and his contributors came out... both greeted each other with fingers extended.. We all lost our voices for a couple days, but fun was had by all.
guess, that this happened in Okla. is pretty good. Does not polls in states such as those, show Bush still over 50%.

5. Bless them
That even warms the heart of an OU grad, the populist soul of all Okies has to be proud.

6. Not sure when it started, but decorated mortarboards are getting quite
common. Seen leis (Hawaiian students), CDs (Comp Sci majors), and lots of personalized ones. Have not worn mine in a few years, but its still plain...

8. I'm surprised they weren't strong-armed
and hustled out of there! That took guts! Maybe there is hope for this generation after all!
