Storming the Barricades in Washington

I have worked in both the military, and companies dealing with the government and military on and off for 60 years. During that time I became quite familiar with requisitions, bidding, awarding contracts etc. I had to write many of those bids. It is a time consuming process with bean-counters and pencil-necked bureaucrats every step of the way. The simplest request takes months not days or hours.

In less than 8 hours of the shutdown, miraculously, professionally printed 3X4 foot signs appeared all over the country in the tens of thousands saying-"this [park, facility, etc. with custom logos] closed due to government shutdown". There has not been a government shutdown in 17 years. These signs were designed, specifications were determined, signs were then requisitioned, bids were posted and vetted, government contracts were awarded. The materials were then ordered and the signs manufactured then distributed U.S. Mails or freight companies.

This shutdown was orchestrated and planned well in advance at least 6-8 month ago. Millions of tax dollars were appropriated and spent in this process. There is a paper trail a mile long leading directly to the White House.

People do not realize just what we are dealing with!

And the truth shall set you free! Nicely done, SmittyOne. It's a plague...the most devious, divisive, and out of control administration to have stolen 2 elections. And the press continues to give them free reign. Wih a drip, drip, drip, they are eroding away the constitution, and the American way of life.

Thanks to desktop computers and computerized sign printers, you can produce these things in minutes, not days or months. You all are just a bunch of crazy conspiracy nuts. You can't prove your assertions.

Go back into your mountain hideouts with your guns and ammunition and wait for the Russian or Arab invasion.
