We Are Change Activist Framed for Assaulting Handicapped Girl

Kurt Nimmo, Infowars - April 24, 2008

It was apparently not enough Gary Talis was attacked and punched by John Lovetro for making the mistake of asking the women of the Bush crime family a question about 9/11 truth and the illegal and immoral Iraq occupation.

Witness Dianne Lipson took this photo of John Lovetro, restrained after attacking We Are Change activist Gary “German” Talis.

Now, according to the neocon newspaper the New York Post, Talis was “arrested after he punched” the “wheelchair-bound girl whose parents had told him to shut up” for “heckling,” i.e., asking questions of the Bush women.

As Jason Bermas noted on the Alex Jones Show today, Gary Talis is non-violent and not likely to attack or yell obscenities at a girl with cerebral palsy confined to a wheelchair. But this is precisely what the New York Post and a gaggle of neocon blogs and websites claim:

They [Talis and We Are Change activists] had been in the audience to hear the Bushes talk about their children’s book, “Read All About It.”

“He began yelling about Iraq and Iran at Jenna Bush. She was waving at the crowd. I told the guy, ‘What are you doing? Shut up. This is about a child and books,’ ” said John Lovetro. “He was unperturbed. I said, ‘Get out of here! You’re being a moron!’ ”

The next thing he knew, Talis was allegedly punching Maureen - a fan of the first lady since meeting her in 2004.

“I heard my daughter hysterical yelling, ‘He’s hitting me!’ ” said Wendy Lovetro.
