We can dispense with the Moynihan's demogogic term "benign". The U.S. government policies are in the nature of malign with respect to many cities.
CB ^^^^^ George Bush to Visit Cobo Center Tuesday He Will be Addressing the Detroit Economic Club Gather at the Ponchatrain Hotel at 10:00 a.m. Jefferson at Washington Blvd., Downtown Demonstrate Against the Policies of War, Racism and Benign Neglect of the Cities Save and Strengthen Social Security! Bring the Troops Home Now! Money for Jobs, Health Care, Education, Housing, Transportation, Not War! Impeach Bush and Cheney for War Crimes! ----------------------------------------------------------- I would like to suggest that we begin our Bush protest NO LATER than 10 a.m. on Tuesday, Feb 8. If you go to the Detroit Economic Club web site at http://www.econclub.org/FirstPage.asp <http://www.econclub.org/FirstPage.asp> , you will see that the doors to Bush's luncheon open at 10 AM and no admittance is allowed after 11:15 AM. The location of the luncheon is not mentioned on the DEC web site. Do we know for sure that it will be held at Cobo Hall? If it is, the Cobo Hall entrance on Washington Blvd. at E. Jefferson is a construction nightmare right now, so I'd suggest we meet in front of the Pontchartrain Hotel if at all possible. I think that will probably be the closest we'll be able to get. What do you folks think? Patricia Lay-Dorsey **************************** Are you aware that George W. Bush is coming to speak to the Detroit Economic Club at Cobo Hall at noon on Tuesday, February 8? I learned about it on Mark Dilley's blog at http://arborupdate.com/index.php?id=624 <http://arborupdate.com/index.php?id=624> He writes: "George W. Bush is scheduled to address the Detroit Economic Club on Tuesday, February 8 at Cobo at noon. On the DEC website Bush is described as follows: 2004 Time Magazine Person of the Year, leader and voice of the global war on terror, steward of the American Republic at home and promoter of freedom and democracy around the globe."?
