Thanx to Atrios for pointing this out to me-
ABQjournal: Obtaining Cheney Rally Ticket Requires Signing Bush Endorsement
excerpt["Some would-be spectators hoping to attend Vice President Dick Cheney's rally in Rio Rancho this weekend walked out of a Republican campaign office miffed and ticketless Thursday after getting this news:
Unless you sign an endorsement for President George W. Bush, you're not getting any passes.
The Albuquerque Bush-Cheney Victory office in charge of doling out the tickets to Saturday's event was requiring the endorsement forms from people it could not verify as supporters.
An endorsement form provided to the Journal by Random says: "I, (full name) ... do herby (sic) endorse George W. Bush for reelection of the United States." It later adds that, "In signing the above endorsement you are consenting to use and release of your name by Bush-Cheney as an endorser of President Bush."]
I shudder to think that as the people who's taxes pay this man's salary we need to sign a loyalty oath to hear his vision for the direction of our country. I, personally never sign anything without reading the fine print.
