White House Bans Signs & Banners at Friday Health Care Event

White House Bans Signs & Banners at Friday Health Care Event:

Barack Obama will speak “on the urgent need for Health reform” at an event on Friday morning at George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia in the Patriot Center, a basketball arena seating about 10,000.

The event is apparently open to all, ensuring that opponents of the plan will be there. But the White House announcement on Facebook reads:

Just as a heads up, no signs or banners are permitted, and those who come are encouraged to limit personal items and not bring bags or purses.

What a courteous “heads up.” Not satisfied to push a bill the public opposes, and threaten to use unconstitutional means to do so, the White House now helpfully informs us our First Amendment rights are null and void."
