Bush and the free speech zones

So President Bush doesn't read the newspapers (he has very smart people to tell him what he needs to know) and he doesn't see any protestors either - they are all herded into "free speech zones" far from his route when he comes to town. And no media are allowed in those zones. It's good to be the king.
