Obama barricades Lincoln Memorial unlike during 1995 “shutdown”
Legal Insurrection ^ | October 2, 2013 | William A. Jacobson

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://t.co/9NSCphRYD4

— Morgen (@morgenr) October 2, 2013

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

We need cartoons depicting Obama and Valerie Jarrett holding weapons and trying to keep American veterans out of their memorial.

Its an open memorial for crying out loud. It was designed that way, for people to walk through. No admittance process required.

I walked through it last year and didn’t see any Park Police anywhere. Securing it is ludicrous and an affront to ALL veterans.

Of course the pRes_ _ent did.

Lincoln was documented and freed slaves.

Obama is undocumented and has made slaves of Americans.

Rand Paul should go there with the press in tow and proclaim “Hussein Obama, tear down these barrycades!”

This news will never see the light of day on any of the libstream channels or websites. And the Dems know this. Hence their brazen middle finger to everyone else. When your dad is the referee/principal/chief of police, you can pretty much get away with anything.

Community agitators, not drama queens.

Good question.

People may want to go look at that statue of Chairman Mao they put there...

It would be a LEAD story if the MSM could find a way to implicate and blame Reopublicans. Then it would get saturation coverage.

Well, this is typical Obama---word has it that the WH has sent orders down through the various agencies, especially those that deal closely with the general public each day like the NPS, to close these things down and make the shutdown as painful as possible to score political points. It's the same thing they did when the sequester first went into effect.

Another example are government websites like the Library of Congress search engine---it went down even though it cost more to do it than to leave it up. What point was that except to annoy users?

..this is what you get when a narcissistic 12 yr old gets power. It’s his way to display his hatred for anything to do with America’s greatness. Whenever he is challenged, or he is questioned or shown to be incompetent, he lashes out as most narcissistic persons do.....I JUST HOPE MORE ORGANIZATIONS WALK AROUND THE “CLOSED” DC MONUMENTS...THEY DON’T BELONG TO HIM, THE BELONG TO US!
