Archives bars folks for clothes featuring Constitution

The ironies of BushAmerica never cease to astonish!

According to IndyMedia (the website the FBI raided in 2004 for having the "wrong" views), the National Archives in Washington, D.C., has banned visitors for wearing clothes featuring articles of the Constitution that deal with impeachment. Yes, you read it right: The building where the original copies of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights are on permanent display is banning folks for wearing clothes that feature the Constitution!

Another irony is that the Bill of Rights displayed there is the same Bill of Rights that (ostensibly anyway) protects free speech. So people are being denied free speech at the place that contains the document that's supposed to protect free speech.

The people denied entry included about 80 members of an "impeachment march" that began a month ago in Boston. There would have been more except some of the members had already been jailed for daring to protest the Guantanamo Bay death camp.

So now the Bush regime is using the National Archives for political purposes by barring people from entering because they have part of the Constitution on their shirt? That's yet another irony, because he's violating the Constitution he swore to uphold, which itself is impeachable!

The little idiot is really on a roll, isn't he?
