The self-reflexivity is mind-boggling
In Denver, a 61-year old librarian was cited for trespassing the "open to the public" McCain town hall meeting. Confused? Why should you be? See, she was holding a sign that read, and I quote in full, "McCain=Bush". That's it. McCain's security forces called in the Denver PD to escort Carol Kreck off the premises, and thereby cemented his equivalence to Smirky, or at least his lack of tolerance for dissent.
Irony? Self-fulfilling idiocy? You make the call . . .

Nope. Not Bush, Reagan. What Reagan's people would do is they would allow the protesters in, then visibly eject them/arrest them after they made their point/noise to show that: 1) America is a free country (then the candidate would say something dismissive about them) and 2) portray the candidate as a "decent, honorable man" who was being bullied by, as your pal O'Reilly would call them, "leftist loonies."
Ah, but Ms. Kreck wasn't inside the hall; she was standing on the sidewalk outside. As in most ways, Smirky has gone far beyond "The Great Doddering Jerk" (that's what they call RR, isn't it?), so neither of your two events even get to occur . . .
