Bush* requests twice as many police officers at his inauguration...

[West Coast Democrat]

this year, compared to last time.

(according to ABC News, just heard on the radio)

[AndyP]

1. He's going to need every single one

[ogradda]

2. freaking little chickenshit

eom

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

3. Can't imagine why he'd think that was necessary.

After all, the whole country loves him; he has a Man Date. Nobody is going to show up to protest or anything like that because he's so incredibly popular. Maybe all those police officers will be needed just to keep people from being knocked over by the adoring crowds, stampeding to try to catch a glimpse of this great hero.

:puke:

9. LOL!

4. Kinda like when Castro fell...if you looked at the online pics

the first three rows were empty and Castro was addressing his own party...it begs the question..if these guys are so beloved and have such a mandate why must they be protected in the presence of their own party?

5. Is he giving them stormtrooper outfits too?

Bush has no idea how pissed off we are. He's in for a big surprise.

[West Coast Democrat]

11. I'll bet Bush* stays in one of those bullet-proof "pope mobiles"....

for the rest of his presidency.

[pagerbear]

6. ...but won't offer a cent to pay for them.

[cubsfan forever]

7. If he thought 2000

was bad, with the eggs and so forth, imagine what may happen this time...And my guess is that he will once again chicken out and not face the REAL will of the people.

8. Dictators are like that.....

10. What is the point of a full blown inaugural for a re election.

The conventions are a horrid waste of money, but can be argued to be necessary. An inaugural for a first time president makes sense, but for a sitting president, NOT.

It's a tradition that can easily move to the trashcan of history. A simple ceremony in the Capitol rotunda is more than sufficient.

12. What else are you going to do with taxpayer dollars...

FEED THE POOR????

[dogtag]

16. Sorry, I lost my head there for a minute.

I have now slapped myself upside the head. No more silly ideas, for today at least.

[liberalmuse]

13. And I say to Shrub, 'Don't flatter yourself.'

I wonder how many food testers the littlest emperor has now. LOL!

[in_cog_ni_to]

19. He's looking more and more like Saddam, isn't he? n/t

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

21. Which raises this question:

When will we start to see (mandatory) enormous posters of weecowboy in all public places?

[Lefta Dissenter]

14. will there be webcams

for us to watch the real story online? We all know that the word on our tv's will be that bush is receiving a lovely reception by his adoring fans.

[UL_Approved]

15. Boy, I'll bet that will be fun

I wonder if he's seen "Black Hawk Down"?

[hollywood926]

17. He's going to need them just for ME....

I'm 5' 6", 135 pounds, and full of rage!

:mad:

[in_cog_ni_to]

18. And the chickenshit little Hitler probably

won't even get out of his car.

[annabanana]

20. How much is he paying the "cheering throngs?"

Will they check people's T-shirts along the Parade Route (aka "the walk of no shame at all")

[LonesomeOne]

22. What Did You Expect?

Especially when people here are saying to bury the eggs now so they'll be ready in January?

I ran across this page http://www.turnyourbackonbush.org/ and think this is a MUCH better idea, since you can't be arrested and disappeared for it.
