[Evergreen Emerald]

1. Awesome!

Were there lots of people protesting?

[proud2BlibKansan]

6. No only one

Security was very tight and they blocked off streets. The guy who made these signs is a rather dedicated activist. He was at our minutemen march and showed us his signs.

[Fridays Child]

13. If you see the sign maker, again, will you shake his hand for me?

[proud2BlibKansan]

14. You bet

I just called him to tell him how well his signs are being received here.

[Fridays Child]

17. Cool. K & R, by the way.

[live love laugh]

81. Please shake his hand for me too. Thanks for sharing these. n/t

[roguevalley]

37. tell him there's someone in alaska that loves him. :)

[proud2BlibKansan]

39. He is single

LOL

[Blue Fire]

67. And tell him I'm buying the beer!

:toast:

[FlowerPowerToday]

108. Wow!

Wow! Great job.

[DrDan]

2. wow - no doubt about their lack of support for these felons

[malaise]

3. Get thee to the greatest

IMPEACH!

[proud2BlibKansan]

8. Wow that's a record

and I was afraid this would be deleted. LOL

[malaise]

16. Well earned

:hi:

[tekisui]

4. Beautiful.

I hope he saw it, but doubt he did.

[proud2BlibKansan]

9. No he did see it; sorry should have included that in my OP

The first sign was held across the street from where his motorcade left the hotel's underground parking lot. He drove right past it. And you can tell it is definitely big enough for him to have seen it. :)

[tekisui]

10. Even more beautiful.

[Democrat 4 Ever]

18. Well, he might have seen it but unless the motorcade came to a

complete stop and gave Chucklenuts about five full minutes to sound out the words he probably didn't understand it. I bet he even moves his lips and furrows his brow while trying to hit the syllables. Of course, if Condi was with him she could help him with the hard words. Just a thought.

:evilgrin:

[Libby2]

24. Bwahahahaa

Great signs.

[krispos42]

94. She was probably too busy with her head in his lap

"Work wife" and all that...

[WolverineDG]

57. Yeah but

could he READ it????

:P

dg

[Selatius]

5. Sounds like he had a cool welcome by protesters. How many protesters were they estimating? n/t

[proud2BlibKansan]

11. One

He was just here 5 months ago and this time, they blocked off streets and access to his motorcade. Plus it was 9 in the morning on a weekday. They also kept changing the time and the details of his visit. The guy who made this sign was just a bit more determined than your average bush protester.

[The_Casual_Observer]

7. That was actually a pretty brave thing to do.

[NNN0LHI]

104. Yes it was n/t

[zorahopkins]

12. Outstanding!

What outstanding signs!!

I hope Bush HAD to see them.

[Jeanette in FL]

15. Has he been shipped to Gitmo yet?

Wow, those are pretty powerful signs. :hi:

[proud2BlibKansan]

19. You remember him? - he was in DC with us

The guy with the noose.

[Jeanette in FL]

25. He was the first one I thought of when I saw the posters

Yep, I remember him, I just didn't want to ask you if it was him. Good for him, he never gives up and gives all of us incentive.

Where has evl been, haven't seen him around in a while?

[proud2BlibKansan]

30. He's moving

I think this weekend.

[yorkiemommie1]

20. I wish he'd been in my city when * was here last week

if there were any protesters there was no mention of it.

Just pix of the idiot moron smiling.

Kudos to the KC protester!

[Sugar Smack]

21. Oh, NICE work!

:loveya:

[proud2BlibKansan]

22. Thanks

That's nice of you. :)

[notadmblnd]

23. Did bush see them?

[proud2BlibKansan]

31. yes he did

[shaniqua6392]

36. Excellent!!! n/t

[ThatsMyBarack]

26. Wheeee!!!!!

KC Freakin' Rules! :woohoo:

[Squatch]

27. I only wish the poster holder would stop beating around the bush

and get to the point, already.

[proud2BlibKansan]

38. Oh I know

He is so vague. LOL

[Sabriel]

64. Yes, not strongly worded enough

Not by a long shot.

[madokie]

28. awesome

what a pick me up that was/is for me

[MissDeeds]

29. K & R n/t

:kick:

[AzDar]

32. A True Patriot.

Well-played!:thumbsup:

[candymarl]

33. I don't get it

This person was much too subtle for me. Why didn't they express what they really felt?

[CoffeeCat]

34. What's so sad about this entire thread...

...is the way that our toddler-President is totally insulated from reality.

They changed the times of his arrival/departure and have to hide when Bush
will be around--because they know how deeply he is hated.

I'd like to know why this happens. Does Bush demand this? Does he demand
that he not see any of this...as a "fuck you" to the rest of us?

Or are his handlers shielding Junior from this? Do his handlers realize that
he'll come unglued when he sees this stuff, so they try to keep him even
keel?

Geez. All Presidents know that a certain contingent of the US population can't
stand them.

Why is it necessary to go to these extreme measures--to ensure that it's all
hidden from him????

Kudos to the brave man with the signs. It's just fabulous that someone actually
DID something and attempted to burst the bubble.

I'm totally impressed!

[Skittles]

35. you've read stories about how his handlers are afraid to tell him bad news

well, it's logical they're afraid to let the little bastard SEE bad news too

[proud2BlibKansan]

41. Thanks

I met him for lunch earlier today and showed him what DUers were saying about his signs. He was very pleased. :hi:

[Jeanette in FL]

51. Please tell him I said Hi

Hi David :hi: from Jeanette in Florida.

David, Have I told you lately how much you kick ass. Thanks for doing what you are doing.

Proud, has he ever gotten a computer yet? Last time I saw him, he didn't have one.

[proud2BlibKansan]

52. You know I took David with me

to Camp Casey last summer. He so deserved to go down there and be a part of that movement. He is so dedicated.

[Jeanette in FL]

54. But, has he gotten a computer yet?

LOL, when he told me that he didn't have a computer, I couldn't believe it. He had so much passion without being plugged in to DU or any other movement. That is passion. He didn't need the input of others to do the right thing.

How cool that you took him to Camp Casey, he must of loved it. What sign did he take down there?

[proud2BlibKansan]

56. No computer yet

LOL!

[Jeanette in FL]

58. That is too funny

I finally broke down and got myself a cell phone. I think I was the last person in America to get one. I did need it for the business. But I freakin hate it. It is like taking care of a kid. I always forget to charge it, I forget where I left it. I won't answer it if I am driving or in the supermarket etc.

But I could never live without my computer. I don't know how he does it.

[Jeanette in FL]

49. Your post is 100% true

The boy in the bubble. Can't let the little master see that the masses hate him and his policies.

I remember a time when there would always be hecklers in the audience and our elected leaders would have to deal with it, a time when America was "free". You could really learn of a person's integrity on how they handled it.

Not here, not now.

[greyghost]

83. I was a security spr. at two different upscale DC hotels over a 15...

year period. I worked with State Dept. and SS personnel literally hundreds of times.

Guarding Bush is a fucking nightmare for them. The more universally hated the principal is, the harder the detail. There are going to be some VERY HAPPY campers when this fucker goes back to Crawford for good.

I'm sure that they're simply taking the safest quickest route from point A to B.

[democrank]

40. It`s a beautiful day in the neighborhood.

~PEACE~

[colorado_ufo]

42. Exxxxcelllent!

[immoderate]

[Faygo Kid]

45. They were too kind to him.

50. Your approval means a lot!!

:hug:

[BobTheSubgenius]

91. You can tell your signmaker....

...that some Canadians are pretty pleased with him, too.

Thanks!

[Kurovski]

48. "When you care enough to send the very best".

As streamlined and clear a greeting card as ever I've seen.

[libodem]

53. the SOB

needs a conscience to care what the signs say or what anybody thinks. I don't think you can guilt trip a sociopath.

[Warren DeMontague]

55. *

:kick:

[postulater]

59. That speaks for me

An American Patriot!

[scarface2004]

[grateful581]

65. what a appropriate welcome

The treasonous fool should get this kind of welcome everywhere he goes

[Omaha Steve]

66. From a DUer that has welcomed GW and Rove in Omaha

K&R!

[swimmernsecretsea]

68. I owe your signmaker friend a pint.

Cheers to you. Thanks.

[Octafish]

[proud2BlibKansan]

He lives on a busy street. Here is the sign he had in his yard for the holidays:

[lonestarnot]

107. Right on!

I hope his street is VERY busy! :loveya: him!

[OneSelf]

74. He deserves nothing less

Scumbag son of a bitch!

[Mira]

75. THANK YOU - to the sign maker. How fabulous Bush got to see them.

I speak from the experience of waving my signs a mile or so away in the zone that protects his tender ass from us who are out there. In my town, and in Washington.

But once...
I still barely believe it...
I made it to a street corner and his motorcade came by and he was in a limousine and I was able to give him my finger about 4 feet from his face.

Better than Christmas.

[toadzilla]

76. sweet!

[mirrera]

77. Now that makes me proud to be an American...

I really needed that.

[From The Left]

78. BEAUTIFUL!

My sentiments exactly! Fuck you, George Bush!

[nadinbrzezinski]

79. GREAT

[Irishonly]

80. Thank you

Those are great!

[TexasObserver]

82. I'm Texas Observer and I approved this message!!

nice

[1776Forever]

84. God Bless the Sign Maker for he or she will inherit the kingdom of Heaven ....

Any bets on what Bush is going to inherit - except for some land in South America???????????????
:evilgrin:

[AlaskaMaddie2008]

85. Goshy I feel sooo sorry for him ~

...:nopity:

[sandyd921]

86. LOL! After my own heart!

n/t

[Robeson]

87. Love the signs. Doubt if he cares. To him, we're just disgruntled...

...slaves on his plantation.

[rosetta627]

88. I'm SO proud

Thank you to all those who made and held the signs.

[ordinaryaveragegirl]

89. HUGE K&R!

Now that's telling it like it is! :applause: :applause: :applause:

[Andrea]

90. FANTASTIC!!!

[Nicole Lambeth]

92. HAHAHA...

Oh my god, can I shake that person's hand? So simple, so to-the-point, so very, very kick ass! I'm going to be laughing about those pictures for days...

[windbreeze]

93. Hat's off and a humble thank you to the sign painter

for expressing what we all feel....wb

[f the letter]

95. thank you people holding signs! n/t

[Rex]

96. Wow. Two pictures that sume it all up. 8 years in two cards.

Bravo.

[robbedvoter]

97. But how do you REALLY feel?

[asdjrocky]

98. KC Rocks!

:yourock:

[GOPBasher]

99. LOL! Nice! n/t

[mwb970]

100. Every American with a brain agrees with these sentiments.

bush is universally despised by everyone whose opinion matters. His "legacy" will consist of being held in increasing contempt by the public as evidence of his illegal and un-American behavior continues to come out in the years after his long-awaited, blessed departure.

Time seems to be slowing down as his term finally draws to a close. Maybe it will stop completely on 1/19/09 and we'll all live forever.

[lisainmilo]

101. Great!

Hoping he finally gets impeached someday!

[Honeycombe8]

102. How very mature. I'm sure the leaders of the nation really pay attention to signs like that. nt

[Girlieman]

103. K&R

[peacetalksforall]

105. In case this hasn't been mentioned. Hallmark is based in KC and "When you care enough

to send the very best" is their slogan in commercials. Some ceo's at headquarters would probably put their hands to their head in a scream if they knew this was out on the internet. Clever guy. At least Hallmark doesn't make war weapons and sells good americana that has humor, is warm and fuzzy, old fashioned, sincere and they produce some good uplifting tv movies.

[proud2BlibKansan]

111. The Halls are longtime republicans

and have supported bush to the hilt. Mrs Hall gave him $25,000 in 2004.

I grew up with the Hall kids and they were a nice family once upon a time. Of course I don't feel that way anymore. Anyone who would support this monster of a president gets zero respect from me.

[malaise]

109. WOW!

32,304 views. Bush is really loved here :rofl:

[seabeyond]

110. wow..... by the damn you.... i had chills. this one demonstrator knows

what he is talking about. good for him
