Burning Man/NYC Mailing List forwarded me this.
Yo! Where were you? I only was there on Friday.
The city of Boston built a pen with fencing and barbed wire. There was a
microphone with a speaker facing an empty parking lot. Maux with the big
mouth was the only one who was heard.
Most of the people there were Kucinich fans and wacko conspiracy peeps.
There was a small Vienam Vets against Kerry march and once cute old man with
flags and Bush signs trying to stay conscious.
A group of us put on black hoods and tied out hands behind our backs.
(Remember, my friends, the Dems voted for the Patriot Act.) All in all, the
cops were very cool, even with their riot gear. They were tired and working
overtime.
Then Faux took the stage in the pen. I am loud, so the Conventioneers could
hear me.
The Conventioneers were casually waling in after 2PM in thier suits, after a
night of partying with movie stars and Al Sharpton. (I tried to get into
the NY Delegation Party, but the organizer told the cops that I was trying
to "buy" a ticket. The cop told me to leave.)
So the Conventioneers were coming in and for a half hour, I haranged them.
"Why did you put a knife into the beatiful Social Security System. Why?
Why?" I cried. Some stopped to listen. (If you recall, they tried to
fillibuster the evil "drug benefits" bill, but some Dems didn't even bother
to show up to vote!) "How could you do this to me?" "to us?" (They duped
the AARP and the damage has been done.) Social Secuity is on a
privatization track. "The Social Securoty System was so beautiful.
Perfect. How could you? "The PR about SSA running out of money is a LIE.
You know it is!" Some actually agreed.
"The Patriot Act. I went to the doctor two weeks later and WAS TOLD that my
medical records were now public record. I was not 'asked' to agree. I was
told! HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO ME?" I cried some more.
I admitted in front of cameras and video that I can not see a psychiatrist
now because it is no longer safe to do so. "My psychiatric history could be
used against me!" More tears. I hate shrinks anyway, but I got a few of
them to stop and listen. I guess they never thought of that!
BIG PLUG
Ruben Zamora came INTO the pen and spoke to me. He is running against
Dennis Hastert, the EVIL SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE!
Ruben Zamora, http://www.rubenforcongress.org
Ruben represents the 14th District of Illinois....so pass this on to your IL
friends. Get this guy elected. This man gave me hope.
Hastert's website has the info on the toens and cities in the 14th District.

Ruben website is a mess. Let's hope for HOPE.
MY THOUGHTS ABOUT RNC PROTEST... I am still trying to swallow the DNC
experience. When I come up with a good idea....
P.S. I had a poster reading "Who's Next" stuck on my chest while in the
hood and chains. I also cried out "Boobs Not Bombs!" Hundreds of photos
were taken. If you see one, send it on....
heh! I am loving you. Let's make it happen!
Peace and love,
faux
