They should keep them where they are, weld the doors open, and leave them as a monument to the bureaucracy.

This is the quintessence of elitism:
Help others who won’t help themselves, Liberally helping yourselves to the money of the productive to buy self-cleaning units at enormous expense to be SURE you don’t actually have to roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty.
The opposite of true humanitarianism, posing as the real deal.

Fairgrounds and special events around the country get by with porta-potties that have biodegrading chemicals and can’t cost more than a few thousand dollars.
Hey Seattle, check out Thomas Register for some cheaper resources.

They have photos up of each $89k terlet.
You can make out some of the graffiti. No phone numbers though.

Bet it is as cold as granite, though; and for the price, it ought to be granite.

The bums taking over the little park next to Pikes Place Market were the lowlight of our otherwise generally enjoyable trip to Seattle last Summer.

Hate to say this, but wonder if there are also a lot of illegals up there.
The further south you go down here, the messier things get. You should see even the Walmart down by the border, clothes on the floor, every art paint has been opened and ‘tried out’ on the shelf background. It’s unreal.
Gas stations keep their restroom doors locked.

Seattle lefties & government officials WOULD NOT LISTEN. They have more of our $ to burn than sense... and absolutely NO ability to see the long term consequences of their actions. Besides, they always receive big brownie points from the local media for “trying to help.”

The Privacy Doors! They appear to have worked too well!!
If they were in Central Park, Spitzer could have saved the room rental for his tryst:-)

You are so right about good olde, angry, vicious Michelle!
Imagine how wretched she along with Obama will be if they get their hands on the Presidency! MAY GOD BE WITH US AND SAVE US FROM A HORRIBLE NIGHTMARE!:-P
We should take up a collection and buy one of these toilets, giving it to Hussein to flush his campaign down the drain:-)

Being a leftist means that you can never, ever be held accountable for your mistakes.
One’s intentions of “helping the poor” or “saving the children” protect you from any consequences.
