:shrug: that's less than we pay Casa de Maryland to help illegal aliens

It's ok, they took it out of the schools budget, so it's all good.

$11 Million in change we can believe in.

That's just a couple more days off for all the state workers

its crazy-insane the amount of people they are expecting - news said "only 5 thousand tour buses registered". They are expecting 10 thousand. Where the hell do you park that many tour buses?

Not in Viriginia, the bridges are all closed :lol:

Why? It's in DC....

Those people are inviting chaos in their lives, so they get whatever comes to them. Who I really feel sorry for, are the workers that have jobs in the city and the officers, fire fighters, rescue, blah blah blah that have to be there working 12-16 hour shifts and prepared to stay Sunday until ???. The officers are having cots brought in and the base has opened up some areas for them to sleep, shower, shave, shiat, whatever but even with all that, they are not going to have 'enough' room for all. The mess in the city has been going on for weeks. It is my understanding that for security reasons, there will only be 3-ways into the city!

I am sure Maryland has officers working as well - at the metro stations - to deal with the heavy traffic, accidents, etc. etc. Betcha, Virginia is raking up a big bill too!

They will get the feds to reimburse them and just add it to the already insane debt this country is already in. :jameo:

Why? It's in DC....

Think again. Whistle stop tour (train) from Cecil Co to DC---follow the Amtrak line. Every road, bridge, intersection, train depot will be covered in law enforcement, National Guard, etc. Speech in Baltimore with 500,000+ people in attendance. More security, EMS, etc.

1 official inauguration ball in PG Co, many unofficial events/balls. Security and EMS at everyone one.

Over 500 MD law enforcement officers assigns to DC on the 20th. Over 250 MD ambulances in DC. and on and on and on. Every form of public safety personnel (including state and local) will be working 60+ hours over a 4 day period.

Traffic problems, backups, accidents, response for days.

Wake up folks; this isn't your great-great-grandfather's simple inauguration any more.

I know of one So Md. county who has 40 officers going into DC to work. They are in training this week for 3 days. :whistle: The other 2 counties are proably also sending officers too.

i hate to be the poor individual who has a 911 emergency (like a little old lady in southeast dc) that day and isn't even interested in the all that crap. Sheeit, dc 911 can't even get the address correct on a good day, imagine what tuesday will bring.

Yep, I heard that. Hope they can find a place to rest. I truly feel sorry for them, like already mentioned, about 60 plus hours of working, several on their feet, for 4 straight days!

EXACTLY - but it is more than that - where would they fly you? D.C.? Baltimore? Those hospitals could get booked fast with all the people expected. And say for instance, you were in a position to need to be flown out? So people stay safe!

No .. He stated in the general assembly that this time his plan is to layoff 500-1,000 state employees, but is hoping the feds will offer a bail out

In Wednesday's Independent, Miller said don't worry about money, we have Stoyer and Pelosi. So we will be getting lots and lots of pork.

He musta had one scotch too many in the back of his limo.

Just read an article in the Baltimore Sun that says Maryland is picking up 11 million of the tab for the inauguration.. WTH?Didn't vote for him so why is my tax money paying for his inauguration ceremony? Good ole MOM offering up our tax money again. He loves giving our money away, whether it's for illegal aliens or useless inauguration ceremonies............he just loves spending our tax money in stupid ways. Gotta love them tax and spend Democrats.

For the same reason other people's tax money was offered to pay for past inaugurations of presidents they didn't vote for.

DC named an Emergency zone..

The dems will call for an evacuation of the city on or about 25 Jan.. 5 days after the event actually happens....
