They weren't at their workplace, you moron:
- Bush came to West Virginia on the nation's 228th birthday to honor the country's veterans and garner support for invading Iraq.
About 6,500 people packed into the Capitol's north courtyard to hear him.
As police rushed her out, Nicole Rank shouted that they were told they couldn't be there because they were wearing anti-Bush shirts.

The White House coordinated the president’s visit to the state Capitol. Organizers described it as a presidential visit, not a political rally. State and federal funds were used to pay for the presidential visit.
Dozens of people who attended Sunday’s event wore pro-Bush T-shirts and Bush-Cheney campaign buttons, some of which were sold on the Capitol grounds outside the security screening stations.
