Trampled Mall needs repairs
Washington Times ^ | 01.25.09 | Timothy Warren (Contact)

Posted on 01/25/2009 7:06:03 PM PST by Perdogg

The estimated 1.8 million people who attended Tuesday's inauguration reduced the Mall to a barren wasteland, and it will likely require some major work from the National Park Service.

associated press This photograph by Sen. Patrick J. Leahy, Vermont Democrat, captures the scope of the historic inauguration, which attracted an estimated 1.8 million people. Much of the grassy part of the Mall is now off-limits to the public for several months, giving the grass a chance to regrow.

The National Park Service, which is in charge of maintaining the area, already has a maintenance team and a natural-resources staff inspecting the Mall to find the areas most damaged by attendees in order to cordon them off.

One of the biggest problems in our nation is the presence of trash cultures and the simultaneous denial of their existence. There is a white trash culture and there is a black trash culture. Its okay to talk about the white trash, but we must not mention the other one even when we are surrounded by clear evidence of its presence.

They remember what a disgrace Chicago’s Cabrini Greens housing project was.

Curtis Cooper was an adorable 3-year-old toddler who loved to ride his tricycle. But Curtis had the misfortune to live in Chicago's criminally neglected Cabrini Green housing complex. This hellhole of safety violations was "managed" by Obama's longtime crony, Cullen J. Davis. And so poor Curtis Cooper was crushed to death when an iron gate fell on top of him on June 28, 2008.

Obama is up to his neck in the sewer of Chicago's public housing scandals, along with his mentor, convicted felon Tony Rezko, Allison Davis (Cullen's father), who's Obama's former law firm boss, and Valerie Jarrett, Obama's senior advisor. The Boston Globe reported that, as state senator, Obama directed millions of dollars of public funds to these cronies for them to improve public housing. Instead, they pocketed the money, kicked some back to Obama's campaign, and ignored the public housing in their care, sometimes to the point of outright abandonment.

Nothing to see here...move along now...

“After 12 Baby Mamas and a thousand attempts at a rap career...” LOL!

I can’t believe that guy could keep a straight face through all of that. The out-takes must’ve been hilarious.

What I’d like to know is How can nearly 2 million liberals get into Washington DC in sub freezing temps in 1 day when 200,000 liberals couldn’t get out of New Orleans at 90 degrees with four days notice?
