EAT THE RICH: CHENEY AND HASTERT FOR DINNER

WHO: Vice-Emperor
Dick Cheney, House Speaker Denny Hasterd.
WHAT: Fat Cat Fundraising Dinner at the NIU Convocation Center
Poor Slobs’ Protest Rally and March from Central Park
WHEN: Saturday, September 18, 2004, 4PM
WHERE: Dekalb, Illinois.
PRICE: Dinner: $150; Speech: FREE.

Last month we showed the GOP elite that their plans for global and domestic domination are not
welcome in New York. Now two central architects of this disgusting plot dare dine on prairie soil.
The only two men to have an advance review of Patriot Act II , an oil warrior and a drug warrior, will
gorge themselves in an orgy of ill-gotten Profit and sacrificed Lives.

For all those who cannot afford the tab and cannot stomach the guests of DIShonor, there will be
a protest rally and march at 4pm starting from Central Park, NIU. The Northern Coalition for Peace and Justice
as well as groups from the
Confederation of Northern Illinois Peace Groups will be in attendance.
Autonomous calls for action include a Noise Bloc (bring drums, etc.) and a Diversity of Tactics.

Let’s show that native sons or not, these religious fundamentalist, class war Republicans are not
welcome in ILLINOIS and that they are not welcome in NORTH AMERICA.

Note: There is currently no permit to march. There is no permit for the NIU Convocation Center since
the Secret Service will exercise control over the premises.
