Why Can't 'Eco-Conscious' Liberals Clean Up After Themselves
« on: January 22, 2009, 01:42:31 PM »
For decades, a consistent media theme has been that liberals are far more concerned about the environment than conservatives.

If such is the case, why did the folks attending Barack Obama's inauguration on Tuesday treat our nation's capital like a toilet?

Consider the picture to your right as well as the embedded video below while you formulate an answer:

I'm sure it's because Bush didn't provide enough trash cans. ::)

25 years ago we had Ronald Reagan, Johnny Cash and Bob Hope.  Now we have Obama, no hope and no cash.

Almost right. Security measures didn't allow for any trash receptacles.  What I don't understand, is where all the garbage came from. There were strict limits on what items could be brought into the area, so was all this crap furnished by Obama?  I still cannot fathom the stupidity necessary to throw away one of the plastic flags given out.  Wouldn't that be something a person would want to keep?

It's like I've always taught my kids when we go fishing.  If you're able to carry it in, you sure as hell can carry it back out.

Sportsmen and outdoorsmen (and women) are generally the most eco-conscous and clean people.  Like the title of the OP says, the greenie wienies can be counted on to trash their own neighborhood while wanting to clean up the planet.

Washington trash trucks hauled away at least 130 tons of garbage after the inauguration of President Obama, with more to go. National Park Service workers picked up almost 100 tons on the Mall and near the White House.
