* Joe Moore Turned Away @ White House Gate

The Idiot Didn't Follow Protocol
by Leora Falk

Joe Moore, an alderman from Chicago, was rebuffed at the White House Gates earlier today as he tried to present President Bush with letters and referendums from towns, cities and states speaking out against the war in Iraq and asking that Bush bring the troops home now. . . . More

* Joe Moore in Washington - Again

Joe Moore has invaded Washington D.C. and is shooting off his big fat mouth about the war. Again. When he should be in Chicago, more specifically in Rogers Park. Instead of dealing with the war on drugs in the 49th ward, Joe's blowing smoke for the national media to see.

From what I hear, Joe is blathering about the occupation in Iraq and what it costs in money. Joe Moore said that the people of Chicago have spent over 2/3 of Chicago's annual city budget on occupying Iraq.

Yet, back in Chicago, other Alderman are actually studying the bloated, over-the-top 2008 city budget.

BLOGNOTES: Really Joe? I thought 2/3's of our budget covered expenses in Chicago? Like your salary to be a Alderman of the 49th ward. Not to be a stooge for the DFA. . . . . More

Craig has spent his blogging efforts tracking Moore in D.C. today. He has begun reciting his mantra of 49th Ward, 49th Ward, 49th Ward and he has slipped into a deep trance having said it so many times that he now thinks the 49th Ward is an island, unreachable and untouchable from the outside world. Really Joe, how dare an Alderman of Chicago have a thought about an issue bigger than his own Ward. All of those state legislators and town councilmen are wrong, wrong, wrong! Chris Adams should clone himself and run in every single one of their districts. There is no reason in the world to believe that any person who is not part of the federal government should have the nerve to make any comment at all about a federal issue.

Even more ridiculous is the idea that the plan to present the petitions was a disaster because George Bush had a lower level staffer not accept the petitions for security reasons. PICTURE IT: It would have made for great media coverage to show Moore and all the others with him at the White House walking to a post . . office . . mailbox and then (this is the really great part) they actually put the petitions in the mailbox ADDRESSED TO GEORGE W. BUSH PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!!!!! WOW!! That would have driven the point home really deep and hard. Thanks for the help on this one Craig! If only you could have been there to divert the disaster. Bush probably thinks those 150 million people are lovin' the war over there almost as much as they are lovin' McDonalds. Okay now Craig, I am going to snap my fingers and you will be back in the heart of the 49th Ward and you will not remember anything that has happened.
