Various crowds were swarming the LA Times building downtown when I arrived-- the Green Party crowd was surprisingly large, and ticked off because Peter Camejo, their candidate, had attempted to enter the building to join the debate, but had been turned away by the LA Times people. It had been reported yesterday that Joe Davis threatened to boycott the one and only debate he has agreed to if the Green Party candidate participated. Crybaby.
Anyway, people were shouting and thrusting signs in front of t.v. reporters. RonDog was there in the eGray hooker get up and Outraged was in his Superman suit with a great sign of Bill Simon opening his shirt to reveal the big "S".
At the last Freep I was at, a few union men showed up an hour into our little protest to stand around with printed Davis signs. This time, men and women from a few different unions made quite a showing with the printed signs, bullhorns, and the NIGHTMARISH chant: "FOUR MORE YEARS!" One union lady nut was screeching "Davis creates jobs!" Yeah, if your union pays him enough.
The chicken guy was there and got a lot of attention from the media. (I was interviewed by La Opinion so for those of you who read the Spanish language paper, keep your eyes out for that.)
After the protest most people dispersed to go watch the debate. We went to a hotel down the block and watched it on t.v. with some Green Party people.
Want my honest opinion of how Bill Simon did? Actually, he surprised me. HE KICKED JOE DAVIS' @SS! The one hour debate, moderated by Hal Fishman, showcased what a snake Joe Davis is, gave Simon the opportunity to ask straight out: "Hey Joe, ever raise money for your campaign in the governor's office, which is totally illegal?" to which Joe WOULD NOT answer yes or no, but skirted and snaked all over the place and looked like CRAP doing it.
THAT'S RIGHT: Simon also looked WAY BETTER.
He really blew me away. I've met him briefly before and heard him speak and thought he was nice and sincere, but the gloves came off in this debate and he verbally punched Joe Davis in his heavily made up face several times.
I couldn't believe my eyes.......for a second there, I thought I had picked up the Daily News by mistake.
THANK YOU, Mediaqueen!!!

On Saturday, October 5, the eGray Hooker, Steve the Chickenman, and a cast of dozens appeared to freep the hapless Governor Gray Davis and Hillary Clinton in their union-sponsored appearance at the Century Plaza Hotel in Century City.
Freepers were joined by a wonderfully high-energy bunch of San Diego students for the ultimate freep experience!more
