t r u t h o u t | One Mother's Stand By William Rivers Pitt
Thursday 11 August 2005 10:18 AM
The police have brought in a health inspector. Maybe they think campers are pooping on private property. Not happening. Everyone goes to the Peace House.

I know someone has that photo of the steaming pile with Bush's face on it. I am waiting on it to show up with a headline on the post:
Health INspector finds health violations in Crawford...large steaming pile of shit
or some other such...people here are very funny and creative.

11. Any excuse - next they will try to smear her as "crazy" |
|
I have no doubt that insanity and/or "the hysterical woman" canard will be brought out against her soon. Maybe they'll forcer her to take medication for her "mental condition".
If she was male it would be the old "we found child porn on the hard drive" trick ...

40. hasn't there been mention of him walking on mats at rallies? I recall |
|
something about this during the campaign, we talked about it too - as if he didn't want his feet to touch dirt... but I guess he does get out and get dirty doing his ranchhand work...

Jimmy Breslin wrote a column about this in Newsday last year, I think. How the path to the 9/11 memorial site (on Long Island) had to be covered with carpet because his (W's) feet were not to touch the dirt. (I believe that W was there for the opening of the site.) Un-fuckin'-believable.

The health inspectors are poking around in every tent, backed up by the sherriff and a deputy. They are surrounded by clicking cameras.

19. Will, they're using the excuse of the health inspectors to illegally |
|
search those areas.
You can demand the sheriff's leave, they have no right and no search warrant.
In fact, I know in California, you don't even have to allow the health inspectors in.

24. I wonder from which jurisdiction this "health inspector" hails? |
|
It has to be county or state. I don't think Texas has a state health inspector corps. So, this must be from the county. What county is involved? Does anyone know?

|
minds and who are full of fury are watching this unfold??? How many will see this latest stunt and say, that's it! I'm going down there! Or contribute money or talent to help.
The current online audience has got to be HUGE - plus we've got people following Cindy from all areas of expertise who can just jump in and help if they see the need.
The actions by these 'authorities' in Crawford are just a microcosm of bushco's constant flubs on the world stage.

35. If they really want to inspect something, try the feed lot off Highway 54 |
|
...in the Texas panhandle. I've travel that road numerous times, and man, talk about the stench! You can smell it several miles before and after passing it. There must be 10,000s of head of cattle all crammed into a patch of land that hasn't seen grass for who knows how long because of the cramped, filthy conditions. Why aren't these inspectors inspecting that monument to corporate endeavors?
I know, I know why, but I wanted to ask anyway...

38. They're looking for code violations |
|
at least, IMHO. Then they'll start fining them and adding to the fine. They're going to try and get them to go away by hitting them in the wallet.

it's only my opinion. I have no doubt we'll be able to cover the fines. One thing to watch out for is the PR spin from the Bush Estate.
If they go this route with code violations and fines, first that CANNOT become the story. The Bush people are going to try to distract with this. They are going to talk about 'mounting fines' being paid for by the 'out of the mainstream left' supporting her. Also, they will point ALL fingers at Cindy and her supporters. The old, "Well, it's up to them whether they want to continue breaking the law or not."
Warning: Watch the framing and stay on message. That's what this is about.

I am destroyed. Cindy and the other families of the fallen just had their press conference. By the end, all were weeping. All denounced the war, Bush, and demanded the troops be brought home. It ended with these families just holding each other, surrounded by flowers and cameras, to the side of the Arlington West cemetery that has been erected here.
We will get our footage of this up as soon as we can.
