1. Why not just build a giant WALL around Crawford
and the nearby farms?

10. odds are something like that will be done eventually
The lid is coming off all the election fraud, the bogus war on drugs prison-stuffing and black budget funding scam, false flag terrorist attacks, and the whole nine yards.

So, physical security goes up. Bushler, his successors, and corporate masters will just put up walls, fly in helicopters between the various mini-fortresses, etc. Patrol the walls of the "gated communities" with stormtroopers, snipers in towers, etc. Bushler and his successors have little to be concerned about regarding public opinion. These things work, and they've very little to be concerned about as far as being "under siege."

And as far as protests/demonstrations or even riots (not that I'd ever endorse such a thing) go, they don't do much more than present an easy and particularly convenient target for military attacks on "dissidents." This fact is already readily observable from the military assaults on WTO/FTAA demonstrations and the demonstrations at the 2004 RNC Convention.

2. Oh right, you'll need to insulate his castle...
That's not going to work for long, the lawyers and marshalls will tear the castle down.

4. It won't matter
*bush is still going to have to live with himself and the evil he has thrust upon us. He can't get far enough away from his own mind, no matter how much he drinks, smokes, eats, exercises and denies. He will suffer under the weight of 100,000's of deaths and the suffering of millions. He will be remembered as the one who sold America to the highest bidder. No rest for the wicked, no rest...

5. Burn down th' mission
You tell me there’s an angel in your tree
Did he say he’d come to call on me
For things are getting desperate in our home
Living in the parish of the restless folks I know

Everybody now bring your family down to the riverside
Look to the east to see where the fat stock hide
Behind four walls of stone the rich man sleeps
It’s time we put the flame torch to their keep

Burn down the mission
If we’re gonna stay alive
Watch the black smoke fly to heaven
See the red flame light the sky

Burn down the mission
Burn it down to stay alive
It’s our only chance of living
Take all you need to live inside

Deep in the woods the squirrels are out today
My wife cried when they came to take me away
But what more could I do just to keep her warm
Than burn burn burn burn down the mission walls

7. If some of you could only see...
Edited on Wed Aug-24-05 08:07 AM by theHandpuppet
... the run-down homes and horrid streets in Crawford, the ones just outside Bush's sprawling photo-op estate, you'd think you'd been transported back to the 13th Century with the blatant division of rich and poor, the landed and the peasantry. So hell, why doesn't the peasantry just build a moat around Castle Bush and volunteer to keep the cauldrons full of hot oil to dump on the heads of any outsiders.

I always thought this country -- and some areas more than others -- was still stuck in what I call a "plantation mentality", but in this case it's more of a feudal mentality. That's why we're still stuck with the Electoral College which I fear won't go away anytime soon.

Newsdesk:

Whoa Nellie...Hold off a bit..

Don't go allocating those precious local funds for parking obstruction/enforcement near the PigFarm just yet.

Local funds are going to shrink like plastic in the oven as soon as the money-laden visitors depart, and once the Coward of Crawfrod leaves office, he will probably dump the pigfarm anyway.(It's a SET..like in the movies..and when the show gets cancelled, they always strike the set.... Well, except for "Psycho", but I digress..) of course the Country Store Shrine could be moved there, and maybe a few locals would drive out to see it, but I think the parking issues will solve themselves soon..

Of course the use of MY tax dollars (via federal highway funds) would be a silly waste of money too.. My federal dollars that I willingly give to the poorfolks of the country would best be spent actually paving some of those roads..

All that dust can't be too healthy for y'all.. (There I go again, caring about people who don't share my views)
