Obama barricades Lincoln Memorial unlike during 1995 “shutdown”

Posted by William A. Jacobson    Wednesday, October 2, 2013 at 8:49am

Barry-cades become symbol of Obama’s shutdown.

Morgen Richmond, of the former Verum Serum blog, has been doing great research on the closure of parks and monuments in Washington, D.C. by Obama and the Democrats, revealing rank hypocrisy and mean-spiritedness.

For example, The White House now claims that it needed to erect barricades at the WWII Memorial to keep out vistors, including a group of visiting WWII veterans, because parks service personnel know how to perform CPR.  (Seriously, that’s the claim.)

But Morgen demonstrated that the WWII memorial is open 24 hours a day, but only staffed part of the day, which means that for much of the time it’s open there are no parks service personnel there at all.  Such much for the bogus CPR defense.

"The public may visit the World War II Memorial 24 hours a day." Staffed from 9:30 am to 11:30 pm. http://web.archive.org/web/20121108195139/http://www.nps.gov/wwii/planyourvisit/hours.htm …

Why was the World War II Memorial barricaded?

@jaketapper but it's open even when not staffed and 911 still works so CPR excuse is nonsense

Obama and the Democrats also have shut the Lincoln Memorial, erecting more Barry-cades.

In a just world, Obama would be hated for this.

Just stay out of Washington, DC.  Cancel your hotel stays, let the restaurants sit empty, let the cabbies bitch because they have no fares.  Give Eleanor Holmes Norton something to keep her awake at night.

Before it's all over they will wish they hadn't done this! You just wait and see!

I'm most likely going to be in DC this weekend, and am tempted to get myself arrested by going to the Lincoln Memorial.

I think that this might just create some "negative optics" for the thug regime.

Probably not, but my liberals friends might not be so happy that Obama arrested me!  :patriot:

I'm sure the White House tours have reopened, haven't they? :woohoo:  It won't be long before Washington is shut down to everyone but the thieves in congress, guarded by Constitutionally illegal Homeland Security Police. :2gunz:
