SF peeps-please come to NYC for the Republican National Convention next year!

The Republican National Committee has, for the first time in their 150 year history, selected New York for their Convention in 2004. In a shallow attempt at exploiting the lives lost at the World Trade Center, the RNC has pushed the Convention date (usually held in July) to September. We have witnessed two unjust wars, at least one American life lost each day overseas, a depressed economy, the collapse of the dollar, $87 billion to boost war profiteering, the closing of our firehouses, a health-care crisis, millions of children being left behind, and now this. We say, Enough!

When the vote does not place in power those who represent the will of the people, democracy must be taken to the streets. Bush Jr. and his administration has made mistake after countless mistake during the term of their stolen election. Their choice of New York City, historically known for its diverse population, its welcoming of immigrants from far off lands, and its radical politics will prove to be their biggest mistake yet.
