Cheney charged $1,000 a plate for dinner, and $5K for a photo-op with supporters. The Vice President also exploited a recent Federal court decision, in the criminal case of U.S.A. v. Bursey to expand the use of euphemistically dubbed Free Speech Zones, to literally cage protesters at the event. <\/p>\n<p>Protesters were not allowed to approach the event at a hotel near the Portland Airport, but were directed by police to a muddy field at least 100 yards away, {where, after they assembled, they were enclosed behind an eight-foot-high chain-link fence topped with razor wire.} Will Seaman, of the Portland Peaceful Resource Coalition, said of the caged area, &#8220;It was completely inaccessible,&#8221; and a half-mile from the nearest public transit. . . <\/p>\n<p>[<a href=\"http:\/\/www.prorev.com\/\">Referrer<\/a>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A.
