Good morning All. :-) Here is another ( Small Town Soap Box ) from the Moby in the Morning radio show. Small Town Soap Box Maurice Hilliard Aired on: 21-Oct-13 Just Wondering, Did anyone besides me womeer how they got all those signs printed and distributed far and wide, including to all the national parks and cemetaries over seas only eight to then hours after the government shutdown? Take a look at this from someone who wanted to remain anonymous. I have worked in the government on and off for 40 years. During that time I became familiar with requisitions, biddings, awarding contracts etc. It is a time consuming process with bean-counters and penicl-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 tens of thousands saying this [park, facility, etc. with custom logos]closed due to government shutdown. There has not been a 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 to U.S. Mails or freight companies. This shutdown was orchestrated and planned well in advance at least 6-8 months ago. Millionss of tax dollars were appropriated and spent in this process. There is a paper trail a mile long leading directly to the White House. Maurice Hilliard
