Protest Bush Friday, Feb. 3 in Dallas!

America's favorite ruler will be in Dallas Friday, Feb. 3, 2006. He will be giving a speech, and I have been notified of a protest group organized to rally in whatever "free speech zone" the secret service sets up. I am unable to attend, but you should. Here are the details ...
=====================================================

WHO: Young Democrats of Texas, College Students and Parents


WHAT: Rally to STOP THE GOP RAID ON STUDENT AID!!!

WHEN: TOMORROW, February 3rd at 11:00 AM

WHERE: Townview Magnet School Campus, 1201 East 8th Street, Dallas

NOTE: We will meet close to the school campus in a parking lot located at the end of North Denley Drive.

------------------

Below is info from the Democrats, just to show where, when, etc.. More info from the Greens. The Dems want no signs. That means bring your tents, crosses, signs, banners and anything else you can! We have to make sure the antiwar message is loud and clear and that Bush knows the name of Camp Casey Dallas!


Tomorrow, Friday, February 3, 2006, we need your help. There will be a protest in Dallas to bring attention to the Bush Administration's failed policies regarding higher education financial aid. Please join young democrats from all over North Texas for this important event. Ask off of work, take a long lunch, skip class, this is that important.

Here are all the details:

YOUNG DEMOCRATS TO PRESIDENT BUSH:
STOP THE RAID ON STUDENT AID!!!
AX THE GOP STUDENT TAX

In a post-State of the Union tour, President Bush will visit a local Dallas school on Friday only to deliver more of his same old lofty education rhetoric, but the truth is Texas students just can?t get a break. Under Republican rule in Washington and Austin, working parents trying to send their kids to college get nothing but a double blow.

While the President travels the country selling empty promises, Tom DeLay and Republicans in the House of Representatives voted this week to gut $11.9 billion in student aid programs, the largest cut in our nation?s history. But this GOP tax on student borrowers is not the first attack on Texas students, who are still reeling from the outrageous increases in college tuition under Rick Perry and Tom Craddick.

Join fellow Democrats TOMORROW to call on President Bush to stand by his words and veto any legislation that robs students of the opportunity to obtain higher education and achieve the American dream. Tell President Bush to stop the raid on student aid!!!

Tomorrow, there will be a protest at the school. the Dems are meeting across the school where they believe that the secret service will allow them to park.

They are meeting at 11am. We need Greens to come out in full force tomorrow wearing Green t shirts and carrying Green signs. The Democrats don't want any signs other than ones about education (which is fine for them) but we need to have a STRONG anti war message at the protest. Code Pink will be there with anti war signs as well. We should support Code Pink in Dallas and encourage more women to participate in this process.

will this interfere with Camp Casey tomorrow or will Camp Casey be moved to Oak Cliff this week?
