Will Bush's limo get egged as he's leaving the White House?
I remember the egg post that started this website and was just wondering...

Will Bush get egged on the way out like he did on the way in?

1. I was in England when Tony Blair left #10 Downing Street for the last time
The news reports showed relatives of soldiers who had died in Iraq standing on the street jeering him.

3. Depending on how cold it is in Washington that day, ( I wouldn't want
anyone to get injured), wouldn't it be great if everyone in sight of the helicopter mooned him as he left?

4. Long Distance Egg Delivery System?


http://eport.cgc.maricopa.edu/published/w/ea/weaver/collection/40/10/upload.c-weaver-40n10.doc

LDEDS Specifics
• Use some mechanical means of launching the egg. Compressed gases, solid fuel rocket engines, and/or and gaseous or liquid ignition system are not allowed.
• The egg may (must?) be packaged within some container, but it must take less than 2 minutes to pack or unpack the egg.
• The launch system must be free standing, movable, weigh no more than 100 N, and not damage a grass field in any way.
• The egg/container must be launched at least 45 degrees above the horizon.
• Safety should be your #1 concern throughout construction and testing. Be sure to read, understand and follow all warnings and instructions for all tools, equipment and materials you use. Proper eye protection and ventilation are a must. Never handle moving parts while still moving. Always unplug all electrical systems/equipment before working on them.
• The LDEDS will be tested on the grass field to the West of the SLB.
• Each team will launch their egg/container. Once at rest, the final spot will be marked and the egg will be inspected for damage. If there is no visible damage, the marked spot will remain and the next team will launch. If there is visible damage, the marker will be removed and the next team will launch.
• After the first round, teams will move their LDEDS to the site of their marker and launch the same egg again. If the egg broke the first time, a new egg will be supplied and the team will launch from the original starting line. Once at rest, the final spot will be marked and the egg will be inspected for damage. If there is no visible damage, the marked spot will remain and the next team will launch. If there is visible damage, the marker will be removed and the next team will launch.
• After the second round, teams will move their LDEDS to the site of their 2nd marker and launch the same egg again. If the egg broke on the second launch, a new egg will be supplied and the team will launch from the same location as the 2nd launch. Once at rest, the final spot will be marked and the egg will be inspected for damage. If there is no visible damage, the marked spot will remain and the next team will launch. If there is visible damage, the marker will be removed and the next team will launch.
• The winning team is the one whose final marker is furthest downfield. Displacement in a Westerly direction is all that ultimately counts.

10. Hey another Nixon moment!
That would be great! Then we could have that shot of the Bushies flying off in a helicopter to their well deserved ignominy.

How about unfurling a huge banner across the street from the White HOuse that says "Good Riddance!"

12. So somebody should emulate the ending of the movie "Dick"
And make him a BIG "GOOD-BYE" sign.

13. Well, after the Bushes denied the Obamas the use of Blair House
I doubt the Obamas will let the Bushes stay one more night at the White House or at any other government owned building.

8. Hopefully he will see the millions of people celebrating Obama's arrival to the W.H.
He's still to stupid to realize that respect is something that is earned, not forced or taken.

11. he should be forced to drive off in a shoe float
And to think he will be paid by us long after he leaves after what he has done.

I guess it bothers just as much as what that admin did as it does on how as a country we allowed it and not one of our reps was able to get enough of the house or senate to hear our voices , gather and stop them.

Also , hats off to our wonderful media who not only ramped up and promoted and sold the war but continued for 8 years to support the propaganda. FREAKS! Yet people still watch their shows , bought campaign ad time on them and buy the products of their sponsors.

His limo will be pelted with flip-flop or regular shoes if it's warm enough.

Maybe everybody can stuff their pockets with an old shoe and toss them at his motorcade at it passes them.

15. That was the day I learned of the nascent Democratic Underground!
Inauguration Day, 2001, watching CSPAN, and someone in the crowd was holding up a sign that said DEMOCRATIC UNDERGROUND. I rushed to the web and have been here ever since. :patriot:

21. Ohhh, I've got plenty of that
in our front yard. I won't be there, but am happy to send some to anyone who will be! Our golden doodle puts out loafs like a horse! It is, of course, frozen, and I'll be happy to pack it in dry ice. Thaw it out the night before in a secure, smell-proof area. That way, you'll get maximum splat-n-stink effect!
