old smokies

no more burning bushes on top of old smokey, earth day be damned.

an air national guard hanger outside of knoxville was the nearest tennessee sanctuary from possible hail in the smokies where the current presidential flame cared to scorch the earth today.

soon after passing more environmentally damaging legislation full of doublespeak, he cancelled his earth day celebration/speech at the great smokey mountains "because of possible hail and thunderstorms."

it's a mountain range for god's sake. wouldn't any sensible person expect there to be a threat of rainy weather in the vicinity of a mountain range?

why schedule the trip in the first place? they obviously never intended to attend, that presidential gang of cronies.

it was all planned for looks. they promoted the speech to be held in a location where the threat of stormy weather is almost always a given conclusion.

then they simply waited till the last possible moment and cancelled as planned.

supposedly, there's a popular saying in d.c., "what goes around, comes around."

it's not nice to fool with mother nature, gang of george.
