And how much money is this govt putting forth, for such stupid barricading.

To me, this is just another poke in the eye, by Obama, to American Patriots (to put it lightly).

I hope they take them down again and keep taking them down and show this stupid POS admin that they won’t be stopped. He can shove his “barricades” up his hole, along with everything else he’s poked us with.

Why don’t they put a shroud over the Lincoln Memorial? And cut down those cherry trees while you’re at it.

Who is making this decision? Head meet platter: you’re fired.

Statement on the National WWII Memorial website:


Introduction
 
 
The National World War II Memorial was funded almost entirely by private contributions, as specified in Public Law 103-32. The campaign received more than $197 million in cash and pledges. Support came from hundreds of thousands of individual Americans, hundreds of corporations and foundations, veterans groups, dozens of civic, fraternal and professional organizations, states and one territory, and students in 1,200 schools across the country.

Donated and pledged funds were used to cover the total project costs of approximately $182 million. These costs include site selection and design, construction and sculpture, a National Park Service maintenance fee required by the Commemorative Works Act, groundbreaking and dedication ceremonies, fund raising, and the 11-year administrative costs of the project from its inception in 1993 through completion in 2004.

Remaining funds are held on deposit with the U.S. Treasury in a National WWII Memorial Trust Fund. The funds will be used by the American Battle Monuments Commission solely to benefit the World War II Memorial.

Don't you find it odd that there is "no money" to keep the Pearl Harbor memorial open, but there is plenty of money to pay Federal Forklift Jockeys?

I don’t know what’s echoing more loudly through the halls of Democrat government nowadays, the clicking heels of goose-stepping civil servants, or the rats’ favorite greeting, “Heil, Hitbama!”

Obama Hates WWII Vets

I just heard a good one on a quick news blurb on the radio. They said that the Park Service has decided to allow/exempt the WWII Veterans so they can access the memorial, as they have a First Amendment right to be there, even though it will still be closed to the rest of the people.

I kid you not. Can you believe that nonsense? I know I can. So the Veterans have a right to be there because of the First amendment but no one else can exercise the same right, while the Gov't is shutdown. Don't get me wrong, I fully support, as a veteran myself, for the WWII veteran's to be there but the idiocy of the Park Service to make a statement like that is beyond belief.

Send that photo around. It will be the twitter-heard-round-the-world.

Obama and his Democrat capons have miscalculated.

So these goons are “essential personnel”? Didn’t think so.

Please, please arrest WWII vets visiting a open air memorial. It will make Barry Hussein look like a fool.

Kristinn,

This is completely insane, as you know. The “parks” in question belong to the People, not the goobamint. Open public spaces to boot.

O’Bozo and his minions just want to share their frustration. If the spoiled children don’t get their toys, then no one else gets theirs either.
