Bush, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, and Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld arrived in Salt Lake City to address the annual Legionnaires Convention in the Salt Palace. Rallies in favor of President Bush’s foreign policy and the war in Iraq fought for attention with anti-war and anti-Bush protests and immigration rallies.
