The Obama administration is adding more barricades at the World War Two Memorial in Washington, D.C. this morning, according to reporters on the scene.
The reinforcements are being put in place apparently to prevent a repeat of yesterday when WWII veterans aided by several Republican Congressmen pushed aside barricades to visit their memorial.
Buzzfeed got no response from the White House last night when queried about the administration closing the memorial to veterans.
A report last night claimed that the Park Service would arrest veterans who attempt to visit the WWII Memorial.
No, it was a series of domino responses just because so-so is friends with so-so, even though almost none of them had anything to do with any serious action. Think about it. How did a whole war spring out of a Slav Austro-Hungarian national assassin shooting an Austrian archduke? How did Germany become the big bad guy from that? Because they all made agreements that they would back certain nations if they wanted to retaliate. It was just a big domino effect of retaliation. Austria, Russia, Germany, France, England. Yes, it was ridiculous and completely pointless. “The First World War was a tragic and unnecessary conflict.” - John Keegan, English author in “The First World War”
Allons enfants de la Patrie,
Le jour de gloire est arrive !
Contre nous de la tyrannie,
L’etendard sanglant est leve ! (bis)
Entendez-vous dans les campagnes
Mugir ces feroces soldats ?
Ils viennent jusque dans nos bras
Egorger nos fils et nos compagnes !
Aux armes, mes citoyens !
Formez vos bataillons !
Marchons ! marchons !
Qu’un sang impur
Abreuve nos sillons !
We only need the light bulb because of government created darkness.
Well Mr. Federal Gov. Who the hell owns these places sure isn’t Obama...
