Howdy, neighbour, peace be with you...

Dallas - United States President George Bush has a new neighbour in Crawford, Texas - a peace activist who plans to use his house near the president's ranch as a springboard to speak out on issues such as a war with Iraq.

John Wolf, a peace activist from the Dallas area, recently completed paperwork to buy a home in Crawford, a town of less than a thousand people.

He plans to use it as an interfaith peace house that can serve as a base to launch peace protests near the ranch Bush calls the Western White House.

The house, near city hall, is one of the first structures that visitors to Crawford see after passing a sign on the highway that welcomes people to town and reminds them it is the "Home of President George Bush".

Crawford Mayor Robert Campbell told the Dallas Morning News that the town will keep a close eye on the peace house.

"We're not going to let them turn the town into a three-ring circus," Campbell told the paper. "If they want to protest, let them go to Washington."

(The world has already been turned into a three-ring circus)

LOL!!

Wolf said people of many different faiths, such as Muslims, Catholics and Quakers, will work out of the house, which was bought for $54 000 (about R430 000) and is about 11km from the front entrance of the Bush ranch.

( I guess peace really does begin at home )

HAR!
