At Group of 8 Meeting, Bush Rebuffs Germany on Cutting Emissions - New York Times

At Group of 8 Meeting, Bush Rebuffs Germany on Cutting Emissions - New York Times:

This G8 meeting in Germany had, apparently, the usual demonstrations, and the usual police intervention. But this year, they apparently decided to apply some well-considered satire....

"Demonstrators in clown makeup and pink and yellow wigs danced outside a steel fence surrounding the meeting site, clashing with the police, who used tear gas to disperse them."

I have to wonder if they were playing Smokey Robinson.
