And now the feds have put up cones to keep people out of scenic overlooks on Mount Rushmore.

“The joke becomes life...eh?”

Yes, and how much does it cost to hire police to throw people out?

Here’s another outrageous story, and I wonder how much it costs to throw this elderly couple, and others, out of their temp. homes.

“I had to be sure and get his walker and his scooter that he has to go in,” Spencer said. “We’re not hurt in any way except it might cost me if I have to go buy more pants.”

The Lake Mead properties are considered vacation homes; one of the lease requirements to own a plot is people must have an alternative residence.

Regardless, the Spencers said it’s their property and they should be allowed in, shutdown or not.”

They have a lease, a rental agreement. They PAY for the right to access the property. Unless the lease is canceled for cause, I see a lawsuit here.

Yup. The federal government is broke thanks to those mean-spirited Republicans and their rich pals. We can’t afford to do nothing about nothing, which is why we’ve got these helicopters, voluntarily donated by George Soros along with the gas and pilots, just to hold this drop cloth all day over Mt. Rushmore. He could have donated the money to help pay off some of the national debt, but that wouldn’t be fair, because if he did that, the currency would stop devaluing, and he’s got a major short position on FOREX, which he also owns.

Barricades weren’t there about 7:30 PM Saturday night. Wife and I drove around DC and Mt. Vernon. Seems the people of America decided to do something about them.

I hope to do a column entitled: Obama’s War to Keep Americans from America, Or “Obama’s War to Keep America from Americans”. Think I’ll go with the second titled.

It will be why this black racial communist hates our country and will do anything to bring her to her knees in submission to the new Red Order.

"One day we’re gonna look back at the Obama Administration as a horrific abberation in this nation’s history, one that finally caused the people of the United States to rise up and reassert the Founding Father’s values.

Do you think any of us will be alive to see that? I think it will take a few generations for that to happen. I feel things are going downhill too fast to see anything positive happening in my lifetime.

Sure makes sense.

I didn’t know how it worked. So they have a lease to access? They sure do have a lawsuit, and they are not the only ones that have been kicked out of their homems.

Yes, this is, according to all public info available to the low info voters, all the Republicans’ doing.

That is even more of an overreach. If someone won’t leave their own residence, will they send in a SWAT team to kill them to save money? Sarcasm, I hope.

“Do you think any of us will be alive to see that? “

What you may see isn’t what you technically want. Young people are being won over by the Libertarian spiel.

In short, “You will stay out of my bedroom and not worry about my procreation or religious habits? Ok then, I can get behind fiscal conservatism.”

And they like their guns, too.

You have it all wrong;

Most excellent! Let me know where I can read your writing!

We must keep the pressure on, shining the light on the cockroaches, shades of the rise of the Third Reich.
