Oklahoma is protesting Bush tomorrow-Stillwater
The pResident is speaking at Oklahoma State's commencement tomorrow morning at 10am. Pray that history repeats - Nixon spoke at OSU graduation months before he resigned.

On campus, 8am-12Noon, Corner of Athletic Avenue and Hester (SW of Stadium).
Check out the website at oklahomans for democracy

Bring Signs (organizers request "G" rating)
Water
Dress for weather - Very good chance of rain. Laminate your sign if possible

BE THERE!!!

OSU students, working with various organizations, have done a FANTASTIC job putting this together. The "free speech zone" they negotiated with campus administration, police and secret service is quite close to where he'll be speaking (if you can call it speaking). We hear that folks from all over the region (Texas, Kansas, etc.) will be here to help us out. Let's support them by showing up in large numbers.

3. Have Fun
I live about three hours south of Stillwater and I wish I could make it but have fun. I read that the university granted the organizers a very good location to protest where it is very visible and close to the most of the parking areas.

5. Yes
OSU was really great. The location is very close to the stadium. When ESPN was here for Gameday, this is where they set up. Very visible, roomy, etc.

We have our signs and we'll be there!
