Congressman Mark Amodei from Nevada there to help move barricades
I saw some plastic ones at another location. Just sayin'.
That would be premeditated and well planned priorities.
He spent much effort and precious funds planning the shutdown
Off with his head!!
POLICE HAVE CLOSED THE FRONT OF THE MEMORIAL **HOWEVER, THEY OPENED THE BACK OF THE MEMORIAL TO ALLOW ONLY THE WWII VETERANS TO ENTER**
**********
What about the families of those who served in WWII who want to visit the memorial to honor the service and sacrifice of their loved ones?
I can’t imagine any other country in the world closing off a war memorial. This is despicable.
Pretty Boy OBayMe has Benghazi blood on his hands as well.
Barry was afraid it would look bad to be dragging off elderly vets, but he didn’t want them to be seen entering through the front.
*******
I believe you have stated the administration’s “strategy” perfectly right.
Have you all noticed that the barrycades are all painted black? Scary rifle black! Previously, in America, barricades were their natural galvanized metal pipe color. Now, someone has wasted our good money on painting those barrycades black. Very strange.
You know, that is a really good point.
Yeah I don’t get it. It’s an open-air memorial. It shouldn’t be closed to ANYONE.
But I’m not there, so it’s not my call.
Thanks Congressman!
When THE people resort to civil disobedience you know its a corrupt regime.
Nice, but how about the House do their real jobs and follow regular order:
1) pass “clean” CRs for Defense, State, and Interior, as they always do
2) pass the rest without 0bamacare
3) leave DC
Apparently there’s some tension about the barricades. The person who runs the 2MBiker site is begging people to be satisfied with the police letting the Vets in the back (this day is about them not the bikers he says)...but even on the FB page there’s strong disagreement with that and it seems some people are moving the barricades anyway. The site owner is saying people are “defying orders”...not sure anyone is in a position to order anyone else with this but there it is.
I hadn’t noticed. Weird.
Headline: "Obama Barrycades DC War Monument, Makes WW2 Veterans Enter Through Out-of-Sight Rear Entrance"
Swine
Leni
Is there live stream of this on going event so that “We The People” can bear witness?
Not that I know of. If you find one, post it. I’ll watch!
Grab the barf bags folks.
Politico weighs in:
http://www.politico.com/story/2013/10/government-shutdown-wwii-memorial-97875.html
And I quote: ‘“It was really disturbing to see congressmen out here grandstanding, using this as a political device when it was in fact Congress — the House — that was responsible for the shutdown,” said Dave Smith, a furloughed EPA employee who was visiting the memorial Friday.’
Uh....Dave you freaking genius. The memorial was officially CLOSED on Friday. WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU DOING VISITING IT AND THEN COMPLAINING ABOUT THE GRANDSTANDING THAT LET YOU IN THE DAMN THING????
My goodness these lying swine.
It would seem that the DNC has issued its orders and Politico can only find spectators who HATE the political grandstanding.
QUERY Would the Vets have gotten in from the Honor Flights WITHOUT the clout exercised by elected officials who are REPRESENTATIVES? Just asking...
Sorry no luck, best I could do was from the Washington monument looking the other way and a spider filled view of the Jefferson Memorial.
If a Republican president ever tried to close down an open air memorial, the media would ridicule them for their stupidity.
