Reason #8,247 to Hate George W. Bush
Wednesday, August 23, 2006It's not like I really need another reason, there, are, lots. Even a song.
But yesterday Mr. President, you pissed me off and managed to prove you don't give a rat's ass about normal people. Instead of letting good people get home to their friends and families after work, you forced them to sit idle on Twin Cities highways so you could hobnob with rich people.
Now, no my way home I have this neat little sign that tells me how long a good chunk of my trip is going to take. Usually it varies from 9-13 minutes under normal traffic. Last night, it was over FOUR TIMES the the normal and, well, looked something like this:
Yeah, that bad.
So yeah, Mr. President, while I'm sure you have no concept of traffic anymore since you've been chauffered around most of your life, it REALLY sucks. I think you're just lucky for Minnesota Nice (well, that and your highly trained Secret Service bodyguards) or you probably would have been the vicitm of some serious road rage. Or at least a stern finger shaking.
While I'm sure your oil buddies love the profit of all us poor commuters wasting $3 a gallon gass waiting for your motorcade, at least have the courtesy next time you visit of not leaving town until AFTER rush hour.
Thanks,
Chief Slacker
