In Los Angeles, the women of CODEPINK hung a 30 foot satin 'pink slip' reading "Bush/You Lied/Your Fired" off the Century Plaza Hotel while Bush collect his booty in the ballroom below. Outside thousands of protesters cheered and demonstrated against the continuing conflicts and loss of life in Iraq. Dressed in pink the women wore sashes reading "Bush Lied", "Education, Not Occupation" and "Where are the weapons of mass destruction?" Simultaneously other elegantly dressed CODEPINK members greeted the arriving campaign donors in the lobby, "It's not right. Actually, it is illegal that Bush lied about the weapons of mass destruction to get support for his war against Iraq, and he's not being held accountable for the lives lost or the billions spent." said Jodie Evans, co-founder of CODEPINK. la.indymedia.org >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Democratic candidates should pounce on Bush not only for his lies about WMD but, in particular, they should note how Bush, through Poppy association with Carlyle, and W's friends will make money on Iraqi reconstruction. I wonder if Neil Bush peddles his educational technology company in Iraq! (LOL). Big money in Iraqi reconstruction for the Bush family.--Mephisto
