Secret service orders photographer to delete pictures

Bush, the conquering hero, enters the arena to receive the adulation of the mobs, but is instead booed. It was like a flashback to Gladiator:



And it seems one of the scribes, I mean, reporters covering the event incurred the displeasure of one of the boy-emperor's Praetorian Guards:

9NEWS NOW photographer Greg Guise was rolling when an officer approached Mark Butler. Butler said the officer demanded he delete any pictures that showed the security checkpoints set up to screen fans for the visit by President George Bush.

"It's kind of like not being in America," Butler said. Butler said he was not interested in the security but in the part of the stadium you could see beyond the gate.

Yeah -- kind of like. But then, "America" no longer refers to the people, culture, and heritage of freedom and self-government that made America what it once was. In the multicultural Empire, loyalty to "America" is supposed to mean obedience to the central government, and absolute reverence for the Commodus-in-Chief.
