Question of the Day

by AltHippo @ 9:40 am. Filed under Uncategorized

The Washington Post quotes an onlooker anticipating the demolition of the Wilson Bridge:

“I want to see it blow up,” said Brian Beavers, 30, a tow truck driver who has rescued many a stranded vehicle on the old span. “No offense, but that thing needs to come down.”

Here’s the question: The religious extremists, xenophobes, and plutocrats who make up W’s base will one day want to name something after him, perhaps even within the District. What would be an appropriate monument to W’s time in office?

Extra credit: what will people say in anticipation of blowing it up?
