3. So Thursday is going to be when things get hot

It looks like he holes up at Buckingham Palace on Tuesday/Wednesday, then scurries off with Blair to the boondocks on Friday. Thursday, when he supposedly tours London, is the only time he's scheduled to stick his nose out in public.

I'll mark my calendar . . .

4. "Bush* tours London?"

Now that should be a really interesting tour!

5. I would not be shocked if that turned out to be bogus

If they switch things around to try to evade the protests, I wouldn't be the least surprised.

7. get graphic too!

Why are we doing this? Well, this is how George W. Bush deals with protestors:

"As president, Bush has widened his restrictions on demonstrations against his policies. Anti-Bush protesters are now relegated to what are euphemistically called Free Speech Zones. These areas are cordoned off as far as a mile away from the president and the main thoroughfares, so that Bush cannot see the demonstrators, or their signs of protest, nor hear their chants. The free speech enclosures are only for those who disagree with the administration's current policies. Those citizens who carry pro-Bush signs are allowed to line the street where the president's motorcade passes."

8. That visit with the families of British Iraq victims. . .

. . .should provide for some awkward moments. Bush is up shit creek if any of this departs from the script.

9. This could be dangerous...

Could set fund raising back a few days behind schedule.
