Exhibit slamming eight years under Bush begins US tour -Bush Legacy Bus unveiled today in Washington

Exhibit slamming eight years under Bush begins US tour
Tue Jun 24, 4:37 PM ET


WASHINGTON (AFP) - An exhibition slamming the legacy of US President George W. Bush was unveiled Tuesday in Washington in a 45-foot (15 meters) long, 28-ton bus parked just steps from the White House.

Emblazoned on the side of the bio-diesel powered bus are the words "The Bush Legacy," and bullet points to highlight, in the words of organizer Americans United for Change, "how eight years of failed conservative policies" under Bush have damaged the United States.

snip...
Interactive exhibits on the walls of the bus call for reflection on what the group has deemed the "worst policy failures" of the Bush administration, such as a collapsed healthcare system, the "endless Iraq war," record fuel prices, or the handling of Hurricane Katrina in 2005.

At the far end of the bus stands a petrol pump, with "Bush Cheney Oil" on top.

I love the fact that they are taking it right to Chimperor's residence. You know how upset he gets when he has to see people who despise his administration making a public spectacle of themselves. How wonderful!

5. I'm happy that this Bush Legacy Bus is parked outside the W.H.
But, it's really too little, too late. The damage has all been done. I also resent the weak sisters in the House and Senate (both parties) that allowed bush/cheney and the rest of the criminals to get away with all the damage they did to our country and the loss of so many precious lives...for what????
