London

2004

• September 14 -- Anti-War Play "Not Half as Scary as the Real Thing"
Brantley finds the vision of Bush provided by an anti-war play in London disturbing: "But an alarming, unyielding centeredness gradually reveals itself, suggesting that Mr. Bush has found in his born-again Christianity something akin to the divine right of kings."

 

November 21 -- Just Your Average Everyday Communists
Lizette Alvarez attempts to mainstream the anti-war protestors who greeted Bush in London: "...a broad cross-section of people turned up for the march, organized by the Stop the War Coalition, which also mobilized a mass protest in February. Grandmothers with canes, parents with children in strollers, high school students, women in business suits, as well as button-bedecked antiwar demonstrators gathered elbow to elbow in Trafalgar Square to voice their disapproval of Mr. Bush and his administration's foreign policies." Alvarez ignored the organizing presence of the far-left Socialist Workers Party.
