The Bush Legacy Bus Tour Coming To Canton

  • Author: Kyle Kutuchief

A group called "Americans United for Change" is sponsoring a Bush Legacy Bus Tour across America, which will be stopping in Columbus today and Canton tomorrow. The bus is a mobile museum which focuses on the failures and missed opportunities of the current administration. Topics for bus exhibits include: Iraq War, the Economy, Health Care, the Environment, Workers, Katrina, Education, and Progressive Vision.

The first stop of the tour was in Dayton, Ohio to draw attention to John Boehner (the tannest man in Congress) and his support of tax cuts for oil companies while Americans pay record prices at the pump. From there, the bus went to Louisville, Kentucky to visit the state of Senator Mitch McConnell. Columbus is the third stop and the focus will be Senator George Voinovich. The goal of the visit is to…

…hold Sen. George Voinovich accountable for voting in support of this President's failed policies 90 percent of the time, according to Congressional Quarterly. The bus will then be opened to the public where Ohioans will be given the chance to reflect on the Administration's tragically inept response to Hurricane Katrina, the mismanaged and endless war in Iraq, 'trickle-down' economic policies that favored the wealthiest Americans and more.

Saturday, the bus will visit Canton, Ohio. I don't have details on the time or location. I have a call in to an event organizer and will post those details if I can get them. I'm guessing they are going to pay Kirk Schuring a visit.

This bus tour is interesting on many levels. First, it highlights a clear strategy by the left to not let the country forget the past 8 years. The second strategy is to make sure that the Republican Congress that helped the President advance his agenda gets their share of credit for where we find ourselves as a country. I'll try to catch the bus on Saturday if I can and report back next week.

    Will this have an entranceway with a big red banner and yellow hammer and sickle? Will there be a big photograph of bill clinton and tom sawyer signing NAFTA and GATT into law? Will it be driven by Christian Serbians whom bill clinton allowed to be thrown out of their country by moslems?

    I am shocked they can afford fuel since the price doubled since the Democrats took over Congress.

    Pathetic. Why are Democrats always more concerned with legacies than with doing their job. 8 years ago we had an administration all worked up with legacy instead of responding to embassy bombings and the Cole bombing. Maybe someday they will realize that legacies are better left to history.

    For years, incurious George and his band of merry nation-wreckers have been talking about Bush's presidential library.

    For years, Bush stooges in the media have bloviated endlessly, speculating foolishly and prematurely about what his "legacy" would be…..would it be his most excellent adventure in Iraq,…what would it be?

    The Bush Legacy Bus, apparently, lays out the reality-based "legacy" so that real-time-revisionists won't have the final say.

    Great idea.

    I just got done listening to Obama at the "unity" love fest.
    Kind of reminded me of a Huey Long legacy festival.
