President George W. Bush is scheduled to be the guest of honor April 25 at a fund-raiser for State Sen. David Cappiello at the Kent home of former Secretary of State Dr. Henry Kissinger and his wife, Nancy.

Can we have a protest or something?

or is he in prison already?
he and Cappiello are thicker than thieves.. oh wait..

maybe that's a bad analogy, more like reality?

just saw COW is having a protest April 25 in Kent ....?? (0.00 / 0)
as seen on Orient Lodge :
On April 25th, President Bush will attend a fundraiser at Henry Kissinger's house in Kent. CT Opposes the War is organizing a protest. 9 AM to 1 PM at 50 Henderson Road, Kent.

it's not on their website yet so I didn't want to post in the calendar. Can anyone confirm?

I would love confirmation too, (0.00 / 0)
Because if it's true it would be a truly unique opportunity for the NW Corner. Protesting Bush at Kissinger's house? It doesn't get much better than that.
Cornwall Iraq Moratorium is IN.

it does sound like a unique opportunity.. (0.00 / 0)
I'm just not sure anyone's going to be able to secure a permit for a protest in that area, or anywhere nearby.

I've not gotten any emails or seen anything on the CCAG or COW's website.. just the front page post on MLN and the mention on OrientLodge.

but yea, it would be a must do event (for me anyhow)

it's happening (0.00 / 0)
The message on the front page was from COW's e-mail.  You can contact them to RSVP or for more info.

I can't imagine they're going to deny a permit for protest everywhere in the town, so something is going to happen.

CT to Get Two War Criminals for the Price of One
by lao hong han [Subscribe]

Sun Apr 20, 2008 at 01:31:46 PM PDT

Reports are just starting to come in at the Iraq Moratorium website on Moratorium Day #8, just two days ago. The folks in rural Cornwall, CT are still polishing their report on their Third Friday program which was addressed by a Republican State Senator, but they wanted me to pull the collective DKos coattail to another bit of news.

It appears that President George W. Bush will be holding a fundraiser in Kent, CT, the posher town to Cornwall's immediate south on this coming Friday. "Kent? I never heard of Kent. Why Kent?" I hear you ask. Because Kent is the home of the Bush bash's host, none other than Henry Kissinger!

So if you are a lurking Republican, by all means don't settle for the thousand buck tab to get in the door. For a mere ten large, you can get your photo taken with two generations of war criminals, world class war criminals I think you'd have to call them. And it all goes to help some bozo named David Cappiello, who is trying to win back CT 05 from the Democrats, in the person or first term Representative Chris Murphy.

lao hong han's diary :: ::
Of course, some folks from the Iraq Moratorium: Cornwall Edition, as they call themselves, will be outside to protest.  As, they expect, will many others mobilized by CT Opposes the War, a statewide umbrella group, and by word of blog (for instance, the splendid My Left Nutmeg).

And you too, they hope, if you are a resident of Connecticut or, presumably, a neighboring state.

Where you want to be is at 50 Henderson Road in Kent, starting at 9AM and staying until 1 PM or so. The hour may well have been chosen to limit the number of protesters.

Try and make it.
