These men who stormed ashore at Normanday, Iwo Jima, and Saipan did it again this time in Washington DC.
The Obama administration has closed down the memorial on the excuse of the government reduction. The White House could change this at any time but today barricades and yellow plastic ribbon greated veterans from Mississippi and Iowa. These men were part of an honor flight. This may be their one and only visit to this memorial erected in their honor. A congressman contacted the White House for an intervention but the petulant boy president was having a snit fit. No help was forthcoming.
So enter a GOP congressman who called for a voice vote; should we blast the barricade? The vote was overwhelmingly in favor of civil disobedience. The barricades were disassembled, the tape was broken, and freedom was restored to a small part of DC. Armed security stood by helpless in the presence of heros.
A spokeswoman for the park police told reporters that the police will get control and this won't happen again. Fuck her and her horse.
