Protesters Corner Jeb Bush in Pa.

[dogday]

PITTSBURGH -- Protesters greeted Florida Gov. Jeb Bush on his way to a campaign event for a Pennsylvania senator, and he briefly took refuge in a subway station supply closet to avoid the anti-Republican demonstrators.

The president's brother encountered protesters on their way to join a demonstration outside the exclusive Duquesne Club, where Sen. Rick Santorum, a Republican, was holding a fundraiser Friday.

Officers used stun guns to subdue two protesters, saying they disobeyed orders to disperse, said Bob Grove, a Port Authority spokesman.

"It was a very tense situation. They were very close to the governor and shouting on top of him," Grove said.

Bush was not injured.

Duquesne Club well! I certainly wasn't able to be a member, first becaue I'm a female, and second I don't have anywhere near enough money or social status. I did attend an event there once, via invitation from our Corporate Bank. It's very Old Money, mahogany panneling and all!
