Protests In Kennebunkport: “Bush Is Fiddling While The World Burns”...

[kpete]

President Bush came to his parent's century-old summer home on the Maine coast for a little relaxation and some family time this weekend. He did get that, along with a reminder that his
Iraq policy is unpopular with some people.

Several hundred anti-war demonstrators gathered Saturday to march on the road toward Walker's Point. The stone-and-shingle compound on a craggy promontory is owned by former President Bush and his wife, Barbara, and named after his mother's family.

6. I saw a WaPo series of headlines yesterday

something like:

Chris Shays urges withdrawal from Iraq
Nancy Pelosi urges action on global warming
President vacations in Maine

:eyes:

8. Your post pretty much tells the whole story.

Shame, ain't it?

Once upon a time, Presidents did the urging on the world scene...and celebrity vacations made headlines.

12. I wanted to do a screen cap later but didn't

find that exact sequence.....

It was a beautiful sequence...

But I am sure there will be plenty more..
neither the war Eyeraaak (in nasal Bush twang) nor Glob. Warming are going anywhere any time soon...:-/

And I am sure there are many vacations to come for the preznit in the two years to come :eyes:
he needs a break from all that hard work-those farts aren't going to create themselves...:puke:

7. Can't we muster up some more Rs for this post as the MSM

is ignoring the story?

These protestors have gone to the trouble to organize and spend an otherwise beautiful day of their lives showing the *cos that we are not at all content with their leadership.
