George W. Bush will speak at a fundraiser at the Chicago Hilton & Towers at 720 South Michigan Avenue on Friday, 6 JAN 2006. Please recommend, and please inform all Chicagoland residents of this protest. Although I am not a member of the organization who authored the announcement copied in the extended body, I support this protest, and I plan to attend it. I hope to see everyone there. Do we have any sign suggestions?

We have just learned that George W. Bush will be speaking at the Chicago Hilton & Towers, 720 S. Michigan Avenue, on Friday, January 6th. Some of us are planning on protesting there beginning @ 11 AM, but are providing the full info we have so that people can plan whatever creative protests they choose.
In typically cowardly fashion, Bush will be speaking once again before a hand-picked audience -- only members of the elite Economic Club of Chicago and selected guests will be allowed the "privilege" of paying $125 to hear W in the Hilton's International Ballroom.
Members of the Club are being told to show up at 10 am, presumably for security clearance. Doors of the Ballroom open at 11 am, with a luncheon at noon.
We are suggesting that people . . .
