Ya got yer swing votes...

...and ya got yer sway votes...

via Wampum

Depending on what side of the fence people are on, crowd control was at an all-time high or low at the Wachovia Arena in Wilkes-Barre Township during President Bush's visit Friday.

A 27-year-old registered Republican and member of the U.S. Army, along with three other people around him, was forced to leave the arena before getting inside.

The Wyoming Valley man, who did not want to be identified by name because of his loyalty to his service members, is being deployed to Iraq in two weeks. His Army service and status were verified.

He explained that he was attending the event in hopes of finding the right candidate to vote for on Nov. 2.

"I thought seeing Bush would be enough to sway my opinion one way or the other. After today, it definitely has swayed," he said.
His crime? Standing too near a suspected Democrat.

Finding out their Commander-in-Chief has no regard for the Constitution they've sworn to defend just might sway a few more GI votes in the next few days.
