So, there I was sitting on my porch quietly reading when...

[Pierre.Suave]

Around teh corner came this bus:



read about it here: http://www.bushlegacytour.com/bushlegacy

Apparently, this is a bus driving around the country to educate citizens on the REAL bush legacy.

It is cool, I am going to go track it down now and see what they have to say.

I would have had a better pic, but I had to run to the 3rd floor to get a camera, and then back down into the middle of the street (without looking) and take the pic.

1. How can they fit over 7,000 dead Americans in that bus?

The 3000+ from 9/11 and the 4000+ from Iraq

[Pierre.Suave]

2. That I dont know

I am going to go track it down and see what they have to say. I will bring the camera.

[NJmaverick]

3. Go get em! Ask that question, and let me know the answer

[ghostsofgiants]

5. Not to mention the 100,000+ dead Iraqis and who knows how many dead Afghans.

[NJmaverick]

6. There are only about a dozen or so rulers and leaders

that have more deaths to their name, than George Bush

[ghostsofgiants]

7. Mission accomplished.

[rurallib]

14. Don't forget the ~ 40,000 - 80,000 who die of lack of health care each year

Probably somewhere @half a million since Bushco was selected.

[Pierre.Suave]

19. It is so sad

isnt it...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

4. My dear jasonc!

What a compelling story!

I'm looking forward to hearing what they do have to say...

What a lucky shot this is!

:hi:

[Ava]

8. it was in Denver too

saw it on the way to the airport

[Pierre.Suave]

12. Cool

did you talk to them?

[Ava]

15. nope, was on my way to the airport.. didn't have time

looked like a neat bus though. there was also a "look into the faces of the aborted" bus/trailer in downtown denver one day. i saw it in passing on a taxi ride to the "AlObama" headquarters. i grabbed my camera to go back to try to get them to talk to me on film, but they had already packed up and left whenever i got there. i did get some footage of the "god hates fags" folks in town.. those nutjobs scare the hell out of me though, so i didn't talk to them at all.. just did some videoing and then got the hell out of there.

[Pierre.Suave]

17. Yeah, yikes

those people are crazy.

[Ava]

20. the phelps woman was there

i didn't see fred though. she was singing "god hates america.. land of the fags" instead of "god bless america"

NUTJOBS

[Pierre.Suave]

23. What a bunch of kooks

full of hate. I dont believe in jesus but I am sure thats not what the bible says... :eyes:

[Ava]

24. yeah... doesn't seem to me that they're preaching peace, love, compassion, and understanding

so much for 'love your enemy' eh?

[Pierre.Suave]

25. Certainly not

Crazy ass kooks...

[Pierre.Suave]

9. I went hunting for the bus but could not find it.

I did go downtown and see some of the RNC Brouhaha though.

Pics here:

The Silver shiny things on the Cops left are tear gas canisters...


This guy was protesting alone, later was joined by others, the police were keeping a clsoe eye on him


This guy actually carried his sign straight up to the police


The guy walking away in the suit is George Stephanopolous


Police preparing for Laura Bushs Arrival. (I was told it was Laura Bush)




Further preperations








An interesting car I saw.


Cops on Horseback


MSNBC Stage


I also saw Joe Scarborough today but declined to take his picture.

[Pierre.Suave]

13. By the way

shortly after the first pic was taken, the cops came over to tell me not to take their picture, but then a supervisor came over and said it was ok and they left me alone.

[Ava]

16. jeebus, stephanopolous looks tiny!

thanks for sharing the pics :hi:

[Pierre.Suave]

18. HE IS TINY!!!!

When I saw him I instantly thought of Micheal J Fox. I swear he might be 5'2" - 5'4"

:P

[Ava]

21. jeebus, he's shorter than i am

:rofl:

i'll tell who is insanely tall.. elad! dude towered over everyone at teh DU meetup :P

[Pierre.Suave]

22. I will have to remember that

if I ever get to a DU meetup Elad may be at...:P

[Pierre.Suave]

30. Ohhh those wily cops...

The local news just said Laura Bush was not here.

But Cindy McCain and Sarah Palin are here.

[Pierre.Suave]

31. Update this again...

it WAS Laura Bush, the news report was apparently wrong last night.

[sniffa]

34. Woot! Megaphone guy will be back this week

:woohoo:

[Pierre.Suave]

35. Who is Megaphone guy?

:shrug:

[sniffa]

38. 9-11 WAS AN INSIDE JOB!

Watch Hardball today and you'll find out who Megaphone Guy is.

[Pierre.Suave]

39. Oh

I never watch hardball thats why I had no clue who he was.

[stuntcat]

10. *WANT* to see them.

:puke:"The Bush Administration has engaged in a systematic effort to manipulate climate change science and mislead policymakers and the public about the dangers of global warming."

I hope everyone with new sweet little babies will remember in the next couple decades to tell their kid our president dropped the very big ball at the very time to do something.



I wanna see these people drive around Arlington!

[Pierre.Suave]

11. I will go hunting tomorrow as well

they are scheduled to be in St Paul through teh convention so I will have one more opportunity.

pics are above too!!!

[SalmonChantedEvening]

26. nevermind

:yoiks:

[Pierre.Suave]

27. The bus is

Anti-Bush

[SalmonChantedEvening]

28. EEEK?

Oops and every other word for FAIL!!!!! :rofl:

[Pierre.Suave]

29. LOL

you are not the first, and not the last, I am sure.

In fact, when I saw it, I thought the same thing. Then I went to the website they had on the side and saw that it was not pro-bush.

[Connonym]

32. Be careful of that bus -- I think one of the Bush legacies is

impending apocalypse. Be on the lookout for unexplained boils or locust.

[Pierre.Suave]

33. HAHA

I would it if were a pro-bush bus...

[flvegan]

36. They'll be here October 4th.

I'll have to try to track them down.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

37. Nice street!

I wish them luck in educating people. I'm not convinced that most want the education.

If you get a chance to hear them, post about it, ok? :hi:

[Pierre.Suave]

40. I am going to go looking again today.

I hope I can find them.
