    Bus Driver Flips Off Bush

    Bus Driver Flips Off Bush: Lucky To Only Lose Job







    A 43 year old school bus driver was fired after an investigation concluded that the bus driver gave President Bush the finger as Bush's motorcade was passing by the school bus.

    This is another case of someone being lucky that they choose to do something to piss off this administration BEFORE Bush signed the Military Commissions Act, which would have allowed him to torture this bus driver for the rest of his life for flicking him off.

    “The complaint came from Congressman Dave Reichert, who was traveling with Bush in June to a Medina fundraiser. The motorcade passed several school buses on a freeway ramp and students waved at the president, who waved back. Bush was enjoying himself until the bus driver's finger gesture caught his eye, according to the King County Journal.
    I think "detaining" and torturing this bastard would have sent a great message to the kids. Disagree with your President and you will be tortured! That would send a clear message.”

    When you think about it, these kids will probably be serving in Iraq 10 years from now, so they really do need to have it ingrained into their head that you cannot dissent from the Commander in Chief. That would just end with them getting a court marshal (followed by torture).

    Of course the bus driver's union has filed a grievance. Unions = communism = Nazism = Hitler. So next time you see a union member give them the old "Sieg Heil" arm gesture: they will get what you mean, epically if they are Jewish, but I don't think there is a lawyers or accountants union, so maybe that isn't a problem.

    If we keep Republicans in power, I promise that we can help to rid the country of Unions and return to the good old days of the 1930s!

    Have you written this yourself, or is there a link, Boon Mee?

    Sounds like some sort of joke to me.
    Did the guy really lose his job for this?

    I gave Bush the finger!
    I' ll make sure my childern tell their children and so on.

    I was in Panama last december when Bush visited t. The motorcade went by under my room window, on it's way to the presidential palace a few blocks down. I watched the meeting on tv and ran downstairs when he left the palace. 1 minute later they drove by again, a narrow street, so narrow I could have touched the limo without leaving the sidewalk.

    I gave him the finger while filming the motorcade, he just had to see me as I was the only one at that intersection. The SWAT team following him were pointing fingers at Panameans and telling them to shut up. He wasn't welcome according to the hotel staff, taxi drivers and friends I made there. They all had the same nickname for him: "Focking Boosh"

    I'll never forget the way Bush looked up at the buildings while walking towards the palace, he seemed nervous and on the lookout for snipers, constamtly looking up and around. Dad must've warned him, "Remember the 3000 civilians I killed there back in '89?"

    Hehe, the yanks are imposing their censorship when they visit abroad now as well?

    No chance when Reagan visited Berlin - the city was on fire just to show the cowboy he wasn't welcome.

    Flipping off Bush? Good.

    Losing your job? Not so much.

    Just goes to show GWB has fans everywhere who think he's number 1.

    The story I read also said it was a woman as pointed out by surasak.

    if read carefully, i think most will conclude as i have that ol' boonie's been duped....again.

    the article takes aim at bush and his policies with irony and sarcasm....but it was all lost on boonie who unwittingly posted it in hopes that it was true.

    keep up the good work boonie!

    While this was a very "redneck" way to express his opinion. I can't imagine this being illegal, no matter how far you stretched the law. As for losing his job, I suppose that puts the lie to the idea that one can still express an opinion in this country. It used to be a very different place.

    ^ there is nothing better than a Nazi Germany in 1933 or a florishing Islamic state like Iran in the 80s

    Them: 1
    Us: 0

    I think the justification used for the firing was 'because it was in front of the children.'

    Ok, I could buy that...except it's a line of BS.
