Coleen Rowley: Criminalizing of Dissent: What Would Thomas Jefferson Do?

2008-11-15-RNCRiotpoliceupclose.JPG



If you haven't seen the just released film '
Terrorizing Dissent', please take two minutes to at least watch the trailer. The juxtaposition of McCain's phoney speech-making inside the Republican National Convention with the violent reality that was unfolding outside is quite eye-opening, isn't it? (The fact that TV and other main stream media only carried what went on inside the RNC and not outside contributed to creating the public approval 'bump' for the Republican ticket -- certainly not unexpected following such televised extravagant displays but which was critical in 2008 for McCain-Palin to have any chance after Bush's eight disastrous years.)
