George W. Bush Sewage Plant proposed in SF

[bluevoter4life]

Source: HuffPo

"Looking to honor the forty-third President of the United States of America, George W. Bush, the recently formed Presidential Memorial Commission of San Francisco is looking to change the name of the Oceanside Wastewater Treatment Facility. It seems the group would like to rename the SF Zoo adjacent facility to the 'George W Bush Sewage Plant,' SFist reports.

The grassroots movement is "proposing an ordinance initiative for the November 2008 San Francisco ballot"

F&*^*ing brilliant. Such a fitting tribute. He truly is a piece of shit.

[DemoTex]

1. Excellent idea!

[TheDebbieDee]

57. Are we SURE this isn't a late April Fool's Day gag?

Although, I can't think of a person more deserving of having a Sewage Treatment Facility named after him.

[jwirr]

78. This would make great gateposts for his library. nt

[stevietheman]

151. I believe this national attraction is dubbed "Mount Bushmore" :) n/t

n/t

[The Doctor.]

163. A sewage plant REMOVES sewage... that's being too nice to him.

[petgoat]

169. Agreed. The engineers who design and operate these facilities are doing a great service.

To denigrate their work by making a joke if it is not right.

I'd suggest instead a George Bush memorial toilet at Civic Center Plaza.

Or a monument to an empty cowboy hat.

[JDwho]

189. Good point

It just seems that Mr. Bush has a great deal in common with sewage. However, I now agree, I don't want to lessen the respect these engineers deserve. The memorial toilet is fitting. Not as funny, but fitting.

[NoodleyAppendage]

2. That is AWESOME! We need a campaign across the country to rename dumps and sewage plants! n/t

J

[Hawkeye-X]

6. And also take down Ronald Reagan Highways!

Tell the council who put them up to put up public toilet facilities and call them Ronald Reagan Shithouse - it's more appropriate than a highway.

(Btw, MY Ronald Reagan Highway is in POOR condition (I-25 from El Paso County to Pueblo County in Colorado) and they also need to tear down FotF signs as well)

[Doctor_J]

20. I can't believe the Big Government Interstate Highway System is

named after the drooling dunce hated anything done for the public good. As soon as hate radio has been unplugged we need to get busy wiping out every vestige of his memory

[LuckyLib]

104. Not to mention Reagan Airport in DC. Every time I make reservations, or even mention

the place, I call it "Washington National." Nancy was working overtime to get so many public places named after that idiot.

[mahatmakanejeeves]

156. It was Grover Norquist behind that.

I listen to aviation frequencies on my scanner, and it is **always** referred to as National Airport by air traffic control workers.

Our beloved ex-guv George Macaca Allen also thought that was a keen idea.

[rucognizant]

176. WHERE IS GROVER WHEN YOU NEED HIM?

I have to go to Fla. because my Mother is having surgery. ( unexpected trip)
I called the drug store to renew my thyroid replacement & blood pressure pills.
Next day when I picked them up; I COULDN'T have the BP, it was TOO SOON and I had too many pills left!
My need for the blood pressure pills began just about 7 1/2 years ago! Fancy that! My Mother was 10 years older than I before she had to take them!
Hooray for all those welfare Mothers with all those babies, being so well taken care of by our small Govt.!
Vote Dem. so our old ladies can get their meds when they need them! ( will my blood pressure go down?)

[JPettus]

162. Nah

It was that nimrod Norquist

[usaftmo]

177. Amen!

I'm from Arlington, and I call it National (like most locals). Currently I take care of airline tickets for military members, and when briefing them I call it Washington National.

I can't wait until either Clinton or Obama get elected; I see the following changes:
- dumping raygun's name from that airport
- a thorough investigation into enron, and the CA utility disaster
- going after crash-cart cheney for having stock/shares/whatever in halliburton while in office
- establishing a sweetheart deal for those affected by 9/11
-- similiar to the sweetheart deal that shrub gave the airline industry
- allowing access to the oil reserves (which should lower the price of gas at least $1 a gallon)
- bringing our military men and women home from the war for oil
- a full onslaught to get bin laden
- putting an end to the financial orgy that big oil is getting
- ending the tax cuts for the super-wealthy that shrub claims is so important
- most importantly, returning honor and dignity to the White House!

[DFW]

179. Those of us who grew up there STILL call it "National Airport."

We never call it "Reagan."

[mahatmakanejeeves]

191. "We never call it 'Reagan.' "

No one who grew up here calls it Raygun, save for the TV anchorpeople, who no doubt have their orders.

I've felt for some time that if, for some reason, it should be renamed for someone more contemporary than George Washington, that person should be George Marshall. At least Marshall lived in Virginia.

I'm in Alexandria.

[rcsl1998]

125. If The Highways Are To Be Named After A Republican...

...then Dwight Eisenhower would be the only be the only legitimate namesake...

[Patchuli]

143. Or Abe Lincoln or Teddy Roosevelt

You know, real conservatives. Nowadays, the neo-cons would consider them to be socialist, tree-hugging hippies! There is NO "conserve" in neo-cons!

[ekwhite]

167. Absolutely

He was the one that built the interstate system, after all.

[Hawkeye-X]

3. I'd heartily endorse that idea.

[LeftCoast]

4. Thanks for posting this! Turns out a very close friend of mine is involved in this.

I didn't even know about it!

[jojo54]

5. Seems fitting, doesn't it? n/t

[stellanoir]

7. How appropriate.

[Ellen Forradalom]

8. You can't beat San Franciscans for political humor.

[femrap]

9. Oh this is just

music to my ears! I love it!

[liberal N proud]

10. Can't think of a better way to honor a turd

[Auggie]

11. That's one ordinance that just may pass too.

:rofl:

[xxqqqzme]

37. Finally a mandate he truly wins!

[boobooday]

12. It would be a real honor for him, I think

Given that he has never cleaned up a mess but only created them.

[bulloney]

142. There should be a huge sign at the final stage of the treatment that says MISSION ACCOMPLISHED

[Kierkegaard]

148. Actually

the sign should display at the beginning of the process, which then continues ad infinitum.

[mahatmakanejeeves]

157. Hahahahahahaha

.

[L0oniX]

13. Finally ...a place for all of Bush's bull shit.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

14. Perfect!

:rofl:

[DB1]

15. Very risky, I would not want a sewage plant destined to Fail.

[singingbiscuit]

17. Sewage plant operators need love too ...

And think of all the good sewage plants do, being part of a modern infrastructure, paid for by taxpayers' dollars, GW doesn't deserve such an honor.

On the other hand, maybe we should organize a flush-in on January 20, 2009, to celebrate this administration going down........

[wordpix]

96. how about a Flush Out Bush campaign?

:rofl:

[ngant17]

106. It might demoralize the utility workers in the plant

I mean, would you want your workplace named after a highly-unpopular president?

[LiberalFighter]

16. Will Bush provide samples for the plant?

[jmowreader]

87. Bush IS a sample for the plant!

[kineneb]

18. poetic justice! gotta love it. nt

[classysassy]

19. An outhouse

maybe Haley Barbour,will donate one of his outhouses.

[Plucketeer]

21. Sounds like the perfect place

to deposit his "Lie-brary" too!

[go west young man]

22. Best news all week!

[rateyes]

23. Excellent idea, but if they plan on treating all of Dubya's shit..

they'll have to have a major expansion of the facility.

[Greyskye]

24. They even have a theme song all picked out

Journey will get back together, and perform the only slightly altered classic:

"When the Shite, Goes Down, in the City,

And the waste goes to, the plant.

How I want to dump there,

In my city,

ohoh ohohoh ohoh"

etc. :evilgrin:

[Pastiche423]

85. That's beautiful

[dbonds]

25. I still prefer he not get his slimey name on anything.

But if he has to, sewage plant might be ideal. I don't want to see any GWB blvds in any towns. Bad enough I have to put up with Ronald Reagun blvd - I refuse to drive on that.

[Stinky The Clown]

26. OMFG ..... that is absolutely BRILLIANT!

The George W Bush Sewage Plant

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha

[rateyes]

27. Hey, they could even make that facility his final resting place...

Could put a marker over a sewage pipe that reads: "George W. Bush--He was one big ass turd."

[TheCowsCameHome]

28. Why do these people hate sewage?

Even sewage has feelings. Associating it with Bush's name is not right.

This shit has got to stop.


:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[Diclotican]

29. bluevoter4life

bluevoter4life

GENUINE elegant, to say that this President, are a shithead... And it is tons of comedies, on his neck at the same time

Go for it!!

Diclotican

ps

But I guess this "honour" would go right true this man and his "head" I guess...

[Baby Snooks]

30. Maybe they should change the name of SMU

The board of trustees of SMU apparently intends to proceed with the Bush Library regardless of how the Methodist Church feels - perhaps someone should change the name of SMU to something more befitting a university that would honor someone whom history will dishonor by noting him as one of the most despicable world leaders in the history of civilization along with his father whose policies as CIA director, vice-president and then president allowed for the path his son chose to take us down as a nation.

While the Republicans wave their flags, the world calls out for another Nuremberg and justice - with or without another Nuremberg, we will carry the shame just as the Germans did. Even those of us who were not good Germans.

[NBachers]

89. Shit Man U

They even get to keep the initials- it could either be Shit Man University, or Shit Man on U.

[MurrayDelph]

178. No, they just need to add a few more letters

SMU ==> SchMUck

[marmar]

31. How do I love San Francisco? Let me count the ways.....

:yourock:

[katty]

32. Wonderful attribution!! a PERFECT FIT!

[greiner3]

33. I'd move there just to vote 'YES.'

[balantz]

34. Perfect!

Let's hope this is just the beginning of more stabbing creativity aimed at the little shrub!

[Donnachaidh]

35. Any wastewater treatment plants near Kennebunkport?

I'd love to see ANY waste treatment facility near the *homestead* re-named for Poppy's spawn. Every state should have at least ONE Dubya treatment plant! :rofl:

[Auggie]

43. We could start a movement (no pun intended)

[swimmernsecretsea]

75. ROFLOL!

:rofl: :rofl:

[Hell Hath No Fury]

36. Ha! I am SOOOOO...

voting "yes" on that one! Heck, I'll help gather signatures! :D

[VP505]

38. That's great,

I wonder if their motto will be something like: Got shit, nobody handles it better than GWB Sewage Plant!

[madamesilverspurs]

77. How about

"Close Encounters of the Turd Kind"?

[DeSwiss]

39. If this sewer plant operates....

....at the same level of efficiency as its namesake, then everyone connected to this sewer system will experience a "surge" followed by a total backup of their drain systems. On a regular basis.

That is until the whole system totally collapses. And then everyone will be standing knee-deep in shit which will be deemed "great strides and progress" by the sewer plant. However, impeachment of the plant manager will still be deemed "off the table....."

K&R!!!
===============================================================
DeSwiss

[Andrushka]

130. Was thinking the same thing. Totally.

But wouldn't it be beautiful to see this in the newspapers:



"Former president George W. Bush raises a toast with recycled water from the sewerage treatment plant that bears his name he claimed was fit for humans to drink. Doctors say that the former leader will recover from an intense bout of gastroenteritis that came about after Bush's attendance at the plant's inauguration within the week."

[Olney Blue]

137. Brilliant! LOL.

[grahamhgreen]

40. THAT'S AN INSULT TO THE SEWAGE!

[Initech]

41. Fitting tribute considering they're both full of crap!

[argyl]

42. That's a hoot. From Wastewater Treatment plant to sewage plant.Why not just Shit Plant?

Really and literally rub the little prick's nose in it.

[bossy22]

44. WOW- for once he is doing the right thing

[damntexdem]

45. They shouldn't rename the entire plant --

just the part where the shit comes in.

;-)

[kimmylavin]

46. The "Offal Ordinance"!

Love it. :)

[Seabiscuit]

61. The "Offal Orifice Office"

[kimmylavin]

122. Love that!

:hi:

[enid602]

47. library

Why don't they just call it the George W. Bush Library?

[darue]

48. fitting? it would need to take in clean water and discharge shit to be fitting n/t

[ryanmuegge]

49. Well, we know what Bill-O's show is going to talk about tonight.

[2QT2BSTR8]

50. In Dallas, we have the GW Bush Turnpike.

Ole George gets me to work each day at $4.00 each way.

[2QT2BSTR8]

51. In Dallas, we have the GW Bush Turnpike.

Ole George gets me to work each day at $4.00 each way.

[ToolTex]

107. Welcome to DU, Too Cute

[navarth]

154. I feel bad for you

Every time I visit Dallas, it makes me nauseous to pass by that freeway. It must suck to drive it every day.

Other than that Dallas ain't so bad. Cheers pardner.

[Gamey]

52. How about renaming mental hospitals and prisons also?

Any other ideas?

[Ilsa]

139. Oh, the usual: Remedial Education Centers, County dumping grounds, brush sites, juvie halls, etc

[Ilsa]

140. Personal Bankruptcy Courts. nt

[LynneSin]

53. Where did they dump all that nuclear waste in Nevada

I think that's a fitting name too

[Hulk]

54. Fantastic!!!

Everytime I hear about reagan Int'l Airport in DC and I fly in to Houston's George Bush Int'l Airport, I want to vomit.

This idea would be so fitting!! I'm all for it. I also want the Iraq Occupation to be renamed and consistently referred to as bush's war....we all know what that means.

[DebbieCDC]

101. Amazing isn't it

They renamed National Airport in DC for Ray-guns -- the man who busted the air traffic controllers' union (PATCO). I lived in DC for 20 plus years and always have and always will refer to the airport by its rightful name.

[bikebloke]

55. Poor sewage

To be tarnished with that name.

[JohnWxy]

56. FANTASTIC IDEA!!!! a sewage treatment plant needs a supply of shit and W is a rich supply of that.

[medeak]

58. posted this yesterday

and everyone thought it was an April fool's joke

[Turbineguy]

59. In my view working at

a wastewater treatment plant is an honorable and needed profession. To name such a facility after Bush is an insult to sewage workers everywhere.

A more appropriate use of Bush's name is to attach it to an email spammer or a pink-sheets stock pump-'n-dump operation. Perhaps change the name of the so-called "Maggot Mile" in Boca Raton to "Bush Mile"

How about the George W Bush No-tell Motel? George W Bush Fine Used Cars (No Money Down)?

On the other hand, isn't there a pissior in Paris named after him?

[singingbiscuit]

83. That's what I'm sayin!!!!!

SEE #17 ... does anyone ever read this, or are we all just posting aimlessly?

[Seabiscuit]

60. Will it divert its effluent resources from the Pacific to the Atlantic

the way Bush diverted our military resources from Afghanistan to Iraq?

[Sanity Claws]

62. HaHa. But is this an April Fool's Joke?

I'm afraid so. Here's a link to the website. http://www.presidentialmemorial.org/

63. maybe

to inagurate the damn thing Bushbaby could flush himself down the toilet,

65. Isn't that name redundant? "George W. Bush Plant" should suffice

:hurts:

[BrklynLiberal]

81. You are right!!

[trusty elf]

66. This made my day!

May a thousand turds blossom!

[AntiFascist]

67. That would be an insult to sewage treatment. n/t

[cboy4]

73. Damn you for beating me to that!!

:cry:

lol

[Ganja Ninja]

68. This is an insult to turds everywhere. n/t

[jimlup]

69. Totally!

It is an insult to sh$& to name a sewage planet after this coward. SF should be ashamed.

[AllyCat]

70. Oh that is rich! Please oh please oh please do it! n/t

[swimmernsecretsea]

71. Oh My God! This is hilarious! Remember when people were doing this?

http://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2005/03/21/17287171.php

Police in Germany are hunting pranksters who have been sticking
miniature flag portraits of US President George W. Bush into piles of
dog poo in public parks. Josef Oettl, parks administrator for Bayreuth,
said: "This has been going on for about a year now, and there must be
2,000 to 3,000 piles of excrement that have been claimed during that
time."

The series of incidents was originally thought to be some sort of
protest against the US-led invasion ofIraq. And then when it continued
it was thought to be a protest against President George W. Bush's
campaign for re-election. But it is still going on and the police say
they are completely baffled as to who is to blame. "We have sent out
extra patrols to try to catch whoever is doing this in the act," said
police spokesman Reiner Kuechler. "But frankly, we don't know what we
would do if we caught them red handed." Legal experts say there is no
law against using feces as a flag stand and the federal legal experts
say there is no law against using feces as a flag stand and the federal
constitution is vague on the issue.

[Hell Hath No Fury]

98. I did that here in SF!

Though it was somewhat hard to find a lot of good poop to work with -- we have pooper scooper laws here and folks are pretty good about picking it up. :P

[swimmernsecretsea]

103. High Five, Hell Hath No Fury! Thanks for doing that!

I heard about that, but never saw one myself. You're quite correct; everyone here is really good about cleaning up after their pets. I love my fellow SF neighbors!

[Hell Hath No Fury]

119. My pleasure!

:hi: Really, is was my pleasure to walk the streets of SF putting little flags with GW on them into poo.

[KamaAina]

72. I'm down with this, under one condition...

...that they quadruple the capacity of the plant before naming it for **.

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

74. but won't sewage everywhere think that such a designation

gives them ALL a bad name?

[cboy4]

76. How about the George W. Bush Pieces of Shit treatment

plant?

Or something like that?

Either way....

[bagrman]

79. Too f ** king funny.

[BrklynLiberal]

80. "F&*^*ing brilliant. Such a fitting tribute. He truly is a piece of shit."

Could not agree with you more....

[Shoelace]

82. sadly, as dimwitted as he is, he would take it as a compliment

[NoFederales]

84. Fine; the first of many such "honors"..................? nt

NoFederales

[GoddessOfGuinness]

86. What do they propose?

Spraying the shit with Glade before sending it on its way downstream?

I wouldn't trust anything named after that lying sack of shit.

[trusty elf]

92. Something like this perhaps?

[GoddessOfGuinness]

112. You know something?

I'd pay money to see that! :rofl:

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

88. They should name a garbage scow after him - the SS Chimpy

or maybe the monkey exhibit at the San Francisco Zoo. Or maybe a hog rendering plant.

[NBachers]

97. A Movement to Wipe Out Effluent Republicans

For now, he is the Seat of the Government.

But maybe we should hire him to be the new Tidy-Bowl Man after he evacuates as pResident.

It's the kind of relaxative position he needs.

That could eliminate one soft position at the new Bush Library.

A new job for the White House Plumbers.

Maybe they can create a stool for Constipated Rice.

I hope nobody creates a blockage to s-crap this proposal.

Don't waste time! Let's all donate, so they'll be flush with money. Take the plunge now.

Clog this site with hits: http://www.presidentialmemorial.org/

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

109. "Constipated Rice" lol

[Grateful for Hope]

90. This is perfect! n.t

[bdamomma]

91. very appropriate.

[wizstars]

93. Isn't this an insult to sewage plants??? n/t

[debunkthelies]

94. Awesome

Could also be nicknamed 'Turd Blossom Recycling' :rofl:

[man4allcats]

95. Ain't that some shit?!

At last! - a Bush memorial I can wholeheartedly support. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[YDogg]

99. Story seems like BS

I mean, check out the grassroots organizations' site:
http://www.presidentialmemorial.org/

[Connonym]

100. yeah, it seems pretty prankish

but wtf it's still hilarious to think about

[YDogg]

102. I concur

:-)

[Hell Hath No Fury]

118. Trust me...

this will take flight here. :D There appears to be a couple of Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence involved, so that means they mean business.

[shain from kane]

105. What's the exact address? I'm tired of the Chimp flinging it.. I'm tossing some his way by Fed-Ex.

[mountainvue]

108. I'd get behind that. n/t

[racaulk]

110. Love it!!!

:rofl:

[Kurovski]

111. Let's hope it becomes a trend.

I'm all about honoring presidents.

[steimy]

113. GW Legacy

Just think if this ballot is successful when I visit San
Francisco I can flush the toilet and say Here's one for you,
GW!  With GWs’ approval ratings already in the crapper such an
enticing opportunity could lead to a domestic and
international tourist boom for San Francisco.  I would have to
get a photo of the sign, and I am sure some enterprising
street vendors could sell trinket bush turds. :rofl: 

[NBachers]

124. You're Right

It would be way more popular than the Larry Craig Memorial Toilet Stall in the Minneapolis Airport.

[progressoid]

114. I made a donation this morning!

[gimberly]

116. I bet this is just the tip of the shitberg. Our culture will trash Bush for decades.

[santamargarita]

117. They should name a turd after each member of his staff!

K&R

[leQ]

120. what a gay idea. (eom)

[DissedByBush]

121. I want to laugh

But I feel sorry for the people who would have to work in a place called that.

[nichomachus]

123. We need a different tactic

As others have pointed out, sewage treatment plants actually benefit the community, despite their unsavory activities.

It would be better if we turned "Bush" into a dirty or unsavory word. Some suggestions:


Shit = "Man, I really have to take a Bush."
Hurl = "Aw, that asshole Henry got drunk and Bushed all over the back seat of my car."
Idiot = "How was my blind date? The guy turned out to be a total Bush."
Screwed = "Jeez, that used car dealer really Bushed me."
FUBAR = "Aw, this thing is so Bushed up now, we'll never fix it."

[Ilsa]

147. Those are quite excellent! nt

[caseycoon]

126. Could not be more

PURRFECT!
:rofl:

[pinto]

127. Ya gotta love it. n/t

[laylah]

128. How very appropriate. nm

[Zambero]

129. It's still too good for him!

Perhaps the incoming untreated sewage pipe would be the better namesake.

[dana_b]

131. I love my city. n/t

[olddad56]

132. why not just name it the George Bush Library.

[Vogon_Glory]

133. Excellent Idea!

Excellent idea. The George W. Bush administration is the most corrupt, arrogant, and lawless administration in living memory. I think that renaming the sewage plant is an excellent memorial.

Of course if San Franciscans rename the plant, the right wingie-dingies will howl. But they'll bay and howl anyway. Since they'll howl anyway, I hope you'll give them a real reason to howl.

After all, hung for sheep, hung for goat.

[windbreeze]

134. Now this is one, I actually wish I could vote for...n/t

[Mike Nelson]

135. Oh,

I hope this comes to pass!

[DesertRat]

136. A very fitting tribute

[tangierumors]

138. this is the real deal

Greetings all from the City by the Bay!

A word to you from one of the founding members of the Presidential Memorial Commission of San Francisco: a few of my buddies have been talking over the past month or so about how to duly honor a president who has inflicted so much shit on our great nation (as well as the world at large) in such a short time frame(Iraq, Katrina, torture, etc) so we arrived at this.

We are a group of patriotic citizens who are using our first amendment rights to make our voices heard, since Madame Speaker, our congressional representative representing this great city, has concluded that impeachment is "off the table." What's left then is to take matters in our own hands and engage in some good-humored political mockery.

While the timing of the site launch was somewhat unfortunate due it being right around April Fools, the members of the SF Presidential Commission would like to underscore that this is indeed real.

Beginning sometime in the next couple of weeks we will kick off our signature gathering drive. By our estimations based on consultations with the City's elections department, upwards of around 7500 signatures are required to qualify the proposed initiative ordinance for the ballot. No easy task, but certainly doable.

Setting all humor aside, we'd like to ask for your support. Please go to www.presidentialmemorial.org and click on the "join the grassroots movement" link for more information on how you can help be a part of history. (There's also some nifty promotional goodies for sale through a link to Cafe Press, with the proceeds offsetting the costs associated with this effort.)

Have you been to 450 Golden Gate on Thursdays at noon by any chance? I would love to see someone post some pictures from tommorow here and get a little more fund raising going for Shirley Golub.



Let's Show Pelosi Herself A New Direction, Out The Door, And Make Impeachment Actually Happen Inbox
The Pen <[e-mail]> to me
show details 12:41 pm (4 hours ago)


Are you as tired of hearing that meaningless "New Direction" slogan
as we are, where all it's been is the same old caving in. Until just
a couple weeks ago we could have sworn we had traded a rubber stamp
Congress for a rubber spine one, and even there they could cave again
on telecom immunity any day without our incessant pressure. And
what's made just a little difference was the huge primary challenge
win in MD by Donna Edwards. If we do the same thing in San Francisco
on June 3rd, as Shirley Golub is doing, impeachment is on, for real.

We can show Nancy Pelosi herself a "New Direction" . . . OUT the
door, by doing all we can to support Shirley Golub now.

There are lots of other things we could be doing to work for real
progressive policy change, but nothing would have MORE impact than
demonstrating that the Speaker of the House herself can be seriously
challenged for not doing her job.

We are doing conventional things and non-conventional things. The
most important conventional things we need to do right now are
mailings, to get to as many people as possible with the Shirley
Golub's "I'm On The Table" message. And she really is, on all the
issues we are fighting for, ending the horrid indefensible occupation
of Iraq, instituting real national health care for all our citizens,
ending NAFTA and rebalancing our trade policy to protect American
jobs, and most urgently impeaching the president and vice president
before they can do any more damage.

We can do lots of email for practically nothing. But not everybody
has email and we certainly don't have the email addresses for every
voter in San Francisco, which is where the critical battleground is
right now. Thanks to your valiant help, Shirley is running multiple
ads daily on MSNBC in her district, the Air America radio affiliate,
and last weekend placed a prominent display ad in the San Franciso
Chronicle. But we still need to do traditional mailings to win.

It's going to take about $30,000 to get this mailing out over the
next week or so. But if each of our participants just kicked in a
dollar we would raise far more than that. So anything you can do to
help will make a real difference, knowing that we have candidate who
is not afraid to put it on the line and proclaim her stands, where
the incumbent, Pelosi, just mouths worn out and worthless slogans.

If you can donate $100 to help show Nancy Pelosi the door and what
direction it's in, Shirley will send you one of the new "IMPEACH
BOTH!!!" baseball caps, so you can proudly proclaim your position on
what Congress should have done long ago. And if you can be an angel
and donate $1000 to get this mailing off the ground, you get a custom
embroidered "I'm On The Table" baseball style satin award jacket.

At the same time, just based on our last alert, we have been hearing
from people from all other the country excited about the theatrical
impeachment passion play that Shirley is helping to make happen.
Think of it like "An Inconvenient Truth". Think of the dramatic
impact that movie has made on worldwide policy thinking, inspiring
and mobilizing people to take action where before they were
dreadfully uninformed.

Here we have a play cowritten by Bruce Fein, one of the premier
impeachment scholars, together with some gifted dramatists. And if
you have ever heard Mr. Fein speak at forum on the urgency of
impeachment, you know that everyone needs to hear what he has to say
about the mortal threat to our democracy posed by NOT acting to
impeach this president and vice president now. Few people have had
that opportunity, and you can't get most people to sit still for a
lecture. But with this play we can have Mr. Fein as a character
educating and inspiring people to speak out every night, while we
pick apart all the specious White House excuses for their
Constitutional offenses witness by witness, in the most dramatic way
possible.

It get's better than that. Every person who will attend this play in
San Francisco we can recruit on the spot to volunteer for the
campaign, they can take home house signs with them, and every dollar
we spend advertising the play will double as campaign advertising.
The synergistic possibilities are breathtaking, not to mention the
media attention phenomenon we can create by making the production the
hit we know it will be. Unconventionial? Yes. But it could amazing
and we have to go for it. We already have a top notch director in
place, so if you would like to make a donation to help mount this
production, please use this link.

And especially if you are in another city and want to work on your
own productions, to make this inspiring impeachment play the national
media phenomenon it is destined to be, please email us too because we
will be releasing the final locked script to all comers this week.

We beat back a corporate financed challenge to Dennis Kucinich for
his own congressional seat with your help, against all odds. Now we
can win a primary challenge in San Francisco, and in doing so change
the course of American political history forever.

to be ours, and forward this alert as widely as possible.

171. I Joined Up - See You at Zeitgeist!

Thanks for your post. Now we know it's for a fool, but it's not an April Fool.

[Patchuli]

141. I kept looking for an indication that this came from

the Onion! I would love this! What a fitting tribute!

:rofl:

[marias23]

144. I want a T-shirt

They will make a fortune just selling T-shirts.

George W. Bush
Sewage
Plant

I mean on disrespect to the many who have died or suffered because of this disgraceful impostor. I don't think he will ever pay for his evil in any formal way.
(Nancy Pelosi has demonstrated this.)

This poetic tribute would be a beautiful thing - one that you will never see in his library.

[sofa king]

145. A statue would be nice, too.

[diane in sf]

152. Beautiful, but you overlooked the pigeon contribution...

[diva77]

168. "Major compost operations have ended!"

:spray:

[Festivito]

183. Perhaps Rodham's the STinker?

He could sit over the entry pipes condemnplating his years of affluent, er, effort to mechanical toots and grunts with his flight suit around his ankles.

It would get more tourist traffic than his library.

[Thor_MN]

149. Wouldn't it just start spweing red ink?

[diane in sf]

150. I'll proudly vote yes on this issue and the plant should be festooned with George's

actual achievements, which are really shit.

[whistle]

153. Great idea, I'll sign that petition, we have a garbage dump here in Orlando

...that could be named "The George W. Bush Trash Heap". There are several raw sewage holding ponds which could be renamed "Dick Cheney Cesspool", the "Condi Rice Swamp" and the "Donald Rumsfeld Septic Drain Field" :yoiks:

[goforit]

155. Absolutely brilliant!!!!....Bets are 85% will vote for the honor!!!

[JackDragna]

158. I am completely against this.

After all, sewage treatment plants serve a useful purpose, even if they are full of shit.

[Sabien]

159. that's frickin' funny n/t

[pinto]

160. kick

:kick:

[D23MIURG23]

161. Beautiful. n/t

[Lugnut]

164. Perfect!

K&R

[Pachamama]

165. The only problem is that its a "Sewage Treatment Plant" - Anything George W. Bush has touched turns

to Sh*t, so naming a plant with his name isn't appropriate...but I truly think this is funny if they were to do this...

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

166. It should just be called the Bush Treatment Plant (Bush=Sewage)

In dictionaries of the future, under the entry for the word "bush" you will find the definition: excrement, sewage, waste, shit, such as "Johnny wipe your feet when you come inside, you accidentally stepped in some of Fido's bush".

[njdemocrat106]

170. Love it!

This is the kind of stuff I like seeing on DU. Instead of bickering about Hillary and Barack, we should remember that Bush and his cabal are still capable of inflicting damage on this nation and the world. What a fitting tribute to the turd-in-chief.

I've never been to San Francisco (or California), but I've always wanted to go, and the building and dedicating of the Bush Sewage Treatment Plant might expedite my plans of visiting.

:thumbsup:, San Francisco!

[Haole Girl]

172. How apropos. nt

[Warren DeMontague]

173. Ahhh, San Francisco.

:loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya:

[doc03]

174. Sounds like a great idea, he should have some

landfills named after him too. How about a GWB Adult Book Store adjacent to the GWB library.

[sonias]

175. Brilliant!

I wholeheartedly approve of this movement. Oh please let it win!

:rofl:

[jcla]

180. If it does what Bush does...

It will breakdown and sewage will flow on the American People, especially the poor and disadvantaged, and on Iraq.

[RoccoR5955]

181. A fitting tribute to the WORST PRESIDENT EVER!!! n/t

[samsingh]

182. shrub is sewage

[ooglymoogly]

184. Ummmm That should read ; The G W Boooosh Shit Repository

Management Corp. "and we apologize in advance for all the stinky leaks and gross mismanagement and the arrogance of our shit".

[Pappy]

185. Everytime I think of a big tank of crap, I think of Bush so this is a great idea!

[Zynx]

186. Maybe I'm over thinking it, but doesn't this imply he purifies the shit out? Perhaps rename the

sewer system after him or a landfill.

[ooglymoogly]

187. Or how bout' The GWBoooosh Library and shit repository.

Where all the papers and Emails that have not disappeared will reside. They will be useful as toilet paper.

[JDwho]

188. Absolutely hilarious

That's what he's been feeding us for eight years, so it's very apropos. lol. Good for them...hope they can do it.

[Orsino]

190. Terrible idea.

Now, if there were a kind of plant that manufactures sewage or fails to treat it, piling it up instead for our children and grandchildren to deal with, that would be something to name after *.

[lebkuchen]

192. How can I contribute?

aside from the most obvious ways.

[Catherine Vincent]

193. Kick for the movement!

Bowel movements, that is.

:kick:

[olddad56]

194. "I got to take a big Bush"

[Vidar]

195. Lovely idea.
