Bush Goes to Meet with VFW, And Screws The Locals

Writing by Marq on Friday, 24 of August , 2007 at 9:34 am

You know this would make me so mad that my head would shoot off my neck and kill something. Here is the deal, the “president” went to Kansas City to give a “Speach” to the VFW anual meeting. Our president is so super seacret about his movments, because most Americans can not stand him, that his forward team does not publisize ANYTHING, including the path of his car before it happens. This is what you get when you have a president that fears his own people. Well get this shit. So the city of KC towed away ever car along the path, in the middle of the night, without warning. The cars were parked in front of the homes of the owners. Thwy were towed away under the cover of darkness so that the path for Bush would be cleared…. but get this, the owners of the car were fined $38 for parking on a road declaired (After 12pm) an emergency right of way, and further had to pay $145 to get the car out of the lot!

Way to go dumb ass, now even more people hate you, and this time it is personal.

Local ABC News

Towed and ticketed, several people on the Country Club Plaza are griping about President Bush’s visit to the metro.

The president’s motorcade made many in the metro smile Wednesday, as he was seen breakfasting with dignitaries and made a speech at the VFW convention.

Bill Cary was not among them, but it had nothing to do with politics.

“What angered me was the fact that I didn’t have any notice,” said Cary.

He is angry because at midnight Wednesday morning, the city towed his car because it was parked in front of his Plaza apartment on Roanoke Parkway. The problem was that the president’s motorcade used Roanoke Parkway. As a result, so for security reasons, police made it an emergency no-parking zone and towed several cars overnight – including Bill’s.

“I thought it was stolen,” said Cary.

Wednesday morning, on his way to work, Cary said, he and several other unaware neighbors were forced to pay $145 to retrieve their cars from tow lots.

Adding insult to injury, Cary got a $38 ticket for parking in a no-parking zone.

“We park here everyday,” Cary said. “It would have been easy to put up a notice saying you have 24 hours to remove your vehicle… We had no notice at all. My car was ticketed right after midnight and towed minutes after the ticket was written.”

The city did not return our phone calls seeking comment, Cary said he is hoping in the spirit of the presidential visit the city will offer pardons for parking offenders.

“I would like to have the city reimburse people the towing expense and waive the ticket,” he said.

Again, the city did not return our phone calls therefore it is unclear how many cars were towed.

Category: Life in Bushs America, Republicans Hate Americans

Today the “President” Once Again Said He will Hold the Troops Hostage.

The frustration of the boy king is becoming apparent to everyone. Today in a speech at the VFW George Bush stringed so many mistruths together in one sentence it was almost hard to wrap your mind around it. For instance he said, “It's now been 64 days since I have requested that Congress pass emergency funding for these troops. We don't have all of them there”, What he is not telling you is his last request for Iraq war funding was made to a Republican-led Congress and it took them 119 days to comply. The Democrats acted twice as quickly as the Republicans ever did. He went on to say, “…the Democrat leadership in Congress has spent the past 64 days pushing legislation that would undercut our troops, just as we're beginning to make progress in Baghdad.” This is also nothing more than spin, what the Democrats have done is to fully comply with his war funding request giving him every penny he asked for him. Bush is not happy with is that the Democrats have said that they understand what the American people want and this will be the last request Bush sees. The Democratic message is clear “You have about a year to finish the job because the will of the American people is all but gone.” In short Bush is panicking because he sees the gig is up, in chaos he could steal, and the Democrats have chosen to end the chaos.

As I said in the beginning of this post, President Bush is holding the troops hostage. You need to look no further than the following statement made by him today, “Some of our forces now deployed in Afghanistan and Iraq may need to be extended, because other units are not ready to take their places. In a letter to Congress, the Army Chief of Staff, Pete Shoemaker, recently warned, 'Without approval of the supplemental funds in April, we will be forced to take increasingly draconian measures, which will impact Army readiness and impose hardships on our soldiers and their families.'" This is a slap in the face to the troops, today in the news it was reported that over 15,000 troops will have their current tours of duty extended. Also reported today National Guard troops in three states to the tune of 13,000 troops have received notice that they will be shipped to Iraq, in direct violation of agreements made between the states and the Department of Defense that state National Guard troops will not be deployed more than once every five years. One unit that received letters today have been stateside less than two years. So how can the president say that if the Democrats don't fully comply with this failed policy that somehow the troops will be redeployed or extended when in fact that is exactly what is happening and they have all the money they need. Bush is using the troops and their families as hostages to keep the war in Iraq going so he and his buddies at Halliburton can keep bilking money from the war zone.
