sktea's Journal: Bush rally requires 'loyalty oath'

Story's a little old, but: the Associated Press reports that people attending a Bush/Cheney rally in New Mexico were required to sign a "loyalty oath," giving their names, addresses, telephone numbers, email addresses and proclaiming their intention to vote for President Bush come November. Folks who asked were told the information was for "Secret Service stuff," and folks who didn't want to sign were denied admission. How long until the RNC -- I mean, the United States government (is there a difference?) - denies permits for any public gathering that isn't explicitly Republican?
