A little democrats.com told us the bushman would be in Houston on July 19th for his kickback tour.
After finagling the whereabouts of the elusive, money grubbing bush, just 3 days before his appearance, our operative in the Bush's Backyard Surprise lookout committee started spreading the word.

Over a thousand people on the NION Houston list were contacted. Costumes were prepared, signs made and the location staked out.

The HCJNW secured a sound permit, made a PA and held a sign making party on the day of.

The BBS posted the call to action right here on houston.indymedia.

Many groups and individuals helped spread the word.

The Houston Chronicle as well as local TV stations interviewed the protesters.

And all this was accomplished without one butt numbing meeting.

Thanks to all for coming out and letting bush know we aren't going away and he's not getting away.

Please see the article published by Houston Indymedia for more details AND

Stayed tuned for more actions both big and small, brought to you by Bush's Backyard Surprise.

The cops were laid back (though deep inside we knew they were seething as bush is scheming to cut their overtime and benefits)
