Pres. Bush will be visiting Ireland for a EU/US summit at the end of the week as we hold the current EU presidency. I will be joining the peaceful protests that will be marking his visit. My reasons are many but I can keep them simple. My opposition to his war in Iraq, his part in the decimation of international law such as Guantanamo Bay and elsewhere, his blinkered support for Israels policies of oppression in Palestine such as land-grabbing, attacks on refugee camps, demolition of family homes etc., his disastrous foreign policy that is stirring up greater divisions, danger and hatred in the world, his disregard for international efforts to counteract global warming and a poor broader environmental policy, his efforts to undermine and further dampen the capabilities of the UN, his gung-ho postering and lack of intellectual judgement, his disasterous economic policy with the resulting weaker dollar and insane budget deficit and it's implications for his own citizens and others. I could go on.....
My problem is if I am to make a banner I want to express my solidarity with America, millions of its citizens and the many many great things that come from the US while being firm in my revulsion towards bush and his neo-con administration. 'America Yes - Bush No' just doesn't cut it.
I'm short on suggestions (my dissertation is sapping all my energy) so any suggestions to what my banner can say are welcome.
the funnier the better

--------------------------------funny that, when clinton visited he was broadly welcomed recieving a warm reception wherever he went. the Bush visit is seeing one of the largest security operations in the history of the state. with cross country protests organised.
