    • SinisterBunni, on 07/09/2008, -5/+1I wish I could do a little "shattin'" of my own... He is a ***** Monster.
  • alapoet, on 07/08/2008, -10/+44The most appropriate name imaginable!
    • earnjam, on 07/09/2008, -5/+5Because like the plant, he's had a ton of sh*t shoved his way and he's doing his best to clean it up?
      • chevyorange, on 07/09/2008, -1/+1I doubt he's doing his best or he would have made the right call at least somewhere along the line on at least one issue.
      • sizzzzlerz, on 07/09/2008, -1/+1Dear god! What he's done for the last 7-1/2 years IS his best?
    • cdahlkvist, on 07/09/2008, -6/+2I think a more appropriate name would be "Stinky San Francisco Hippy Sewage Plant" except it probably smells better than the hippies.

      I'm surprised San Francisco even has a sewage plant. I figured all the stinky hippies just bottled their waste and made Jenkum.
    • spence448, on 07/09/2008, -1/+2I agree that it is appropriate but I'd be afraid that it would give raw sewage a bad name.
    • Eulipian, on 07/09/2008, -0/+1Not at all appropriate: sewage plants clean ***** up; Bush propagates ***** by the buckets whenever he opens his stinking pie hole.
  • neognostic, on 07/08/2008, -13/+87I don't think Bush is bright enough to be offended by the joke.
    • earnjam, on 07/09/2008, -11/+6That's hilarious. I've never heard anyone call him dumb before...
      • Nauru, on 07/09/2008, -4/+2"And I'd just like to say it's an honor to have such a fine establishment named after me..."
      • earnjam, on 07/09/2008, -0/+2I'm just saying. That joke is the village bicycle. Everyone's had a ride on it. Let's come up with something new.
    • Hypersapien, on 07/09/2008, -2/+6That's if he even knows about it. I'm sure his handlers are keeping it from him.
    • dk911, on 07/09/2008, -4/+1I think Bush is probably (but this is just a guess) smarter than you.
  • Surferess, on 07/08/2008, -10/+18Excellent idea. It should be called the "George W Bush sh*t stops here facility"!
  • Fangsinmybeard, on 07/08/2008, -16/+13I hope they treat the sewage as if it were radio active waste, because that is how toxic Bush's propaganda can be.
  • damian7, on 07/08/2008, -11/+104I thought this already existed, we just called it the Whitehouse
  • mikesbaker, on 07/09/2008, -41/+29FTA
    "This is why San Francisco is considered wacky," Dorinson said. "It makes me ashamed to be a San Franciscan if this is all they've got time to do."

    Right on the money there. This is how the democrats are wasting their time in SF? Expect a lot more time wasting ***** after Obama is elected.
    • mistermaster, on 07/09/2008, -10/+8It seems that Dorinson can't walk and chew gum at the same time, and assumes that such a restriction applies to everyone else.
    • glasnostic, on 07/09/2008, -8/+16time wasting *****? you seem to think this is a democrat only thing. what if i was to provide evidence that republicans do the same thing? would you retract your statement? doubt it..

      anyway.. .i'm off to get some freedom fries
      • stevetrojanman, on 07/09/2008, -2/+3If republicans did the same thing, it'd be just as repugnant...

        If you can, please provide the info of republicans creating a measure to name something after a democrat political leader as a mockery of that leader...

        I'd be just as quick to denounce it...it's childish, amateurish, and embarrassing
    • stevetrojanman, on 07/09/2008, -5/+17So true...

      I wonder if they'll bestow a new dump in the honor of the woman of 2006, Nancy Pelosi...

      Wow, she's really helped clean up this "*****" we're in...Sadly, they probably still idolize her there because she's willing to listen to the "voice of the people", which is loonier than most, up there in San Fran.
    • Verfel, on 07/09/2008, -6/+3The article holds no references to democrats being involved, perhaps you should try again to not fail so badly.
      • stevetrojanman, on 07/09/2008, -9/+4Uh huh...

        Forgot that San Fran has a lower than the norm liberal population and that it's obvious that a group of republicans would support this...

        Read between the lines...isn't that what you libs are always telling us conservatives to do? Don't be sheep to Faux news? Sound familiar?
      • Verfel, on 07/09/2008, -1/+6and why wouldn't some republicans support it? The country still shows a 30ish% approval rating for the pres which means that there must be some republicans out there who think this way. Try reading between those lines again, you seemed to have missed a few important ones...
      • PabloMac, on 07/09/2008, -1/+7Democrats are assumed to be behind this because the Republicans in the area were both away at the time.
      • stevetrojanman, on 07/09/2008, -5/+2@ Verfel's 2nd comment...

        The fact that you're attempting to argue that it's not a group of democrats that is the majority behind this operation shows that there is no use arguing with you because logic is absent...

        Just because the article doesn't "reference" democrats being involved doesn't mean that they aren't involved...there might be a few republicans that have signed on, but if you want to argue that republicans are the primary backers of this waste of time, then your ability to come to a logical conclusion is, at best, flawed.
      • Verfel, on 07/09/2008, -2/+2@ Steve

        boyo, you seem to be very politically bias so here's the deal. In my original comment I stated a fact, it may have been implied that liberals/democrats were behind it but it was never stated. The only political reference stated was that an opponent to the measure was a republican. To say that all republicans are against it solely because one did (and visa versa for democrats) merely shows that bias. You're attempting to hold to account the idea that logic is absent even though I, at no point in time, mentioned that democrats or republicans were or were not behind it and I never implied that either weren't involved. I was simply stating to Mike that his comment was incorrectly placed because it blamed democrats for wasting time when in truth democrats were never mentioned in the article. Then I insulted him for fun... alright, cheap blow, but an honest one.

        The point is, political bias is so rampant that should one immediately assume that the other party member is "behind something" without at least providing some evidence (I offered the contrary) then they deserve little credit for their opinion. I too can and have held myself accountable for not providing said evidence and if I can do it to myself, then so can everyone else.

        You immediately label me a liberal and believe me a democrat, by your wording, when in truth I'm an independent conservative swinger with an outspoken opinion about bias rhetoric. Please check yourself and come back when you're head is clearer, you obviously seem to be on some sort of high horse at the moment.
    • an0nymous, on 07/09/2008, -6/+10"Expect a lot more time wasting ***** after Obama is elected."
      Wait... did you just concede the election? So why do you, loyal Republican, think McCain will not be elected?
    • SFJoe, on 07/09/2008, -3/+4The total time I've spent on this issue, including signing the petition, reading about it and thinking about it (including this post) amounts to about five minutes. I'll spend another one minute on it when it comes time to vote. I know that for a Republican like Bush, six minutes of thought amounts to a huge output of brain power but it's really not that big a deal to the non-retarded amongst us.
  • thomashowell, on 07/09/2008, -11/+11I honestly think with all of the hell that George W had created for us, I think he is actually quite content with having a sewage plant dedicated in his honor. At least it will be used compared to the horrific lack of traffic through the library that he will eventually get in Texas, which will be filled with nothing, but useless crap and non current periodicals.
    • ISurfTooMuch, on 07/09/2008, -8/+3How can there be a library when I'm sure he'll shred all his presidential papers before he leaves office to get rid of the evidence?

      All that will be there will be an empty building. Hmm, I had wondered why SMU accepted this thing, but maybe it was just a ploy to get a building constructed at no cost to them. Not a bad scam, if I do say so myself. Get the library, which will be mostly empty, wait about a month for everyone to lose interest, then throw out the coloring book. After that, put the building to other uses.
    • AgainstObama, on 07/09/2008, -3/+11How dramatic.
      • mmmmmbiscuits, on 07/09/2008, -2/+5Are you new here? :-) Digg is filled with thousands of preening, prissy drama queens.
    • forcedfx, on 07/09/2008, -5/+4Got something against coloring books?
  • Ronian12, on 07/09/2008, -20/+1PLEEAASE bump this, that is hilarious!!!
    • mhender, on 07/09/2008, -1/+6I wish I could bump this.
      If there were only some sort of feature that would let me vote for this article, and as it obtains more votes from users, it could be placed in some sort of 'featured' or 'most votes' area of the website.
      • misguidedmonkey, on 07/09/2008, -3/+1Ignore that biatch. He's Farking insane.
  • brstilson, on 07/09/2008, -11/+77That name is inappropriate. Sewage plants actually treat sewage and clean up the mess. A public restroom named after the President would be more in order I think.
    • mytruckhasdents, on 07/09/2008, -4/+18...Even better- we could just rename Detroit...
    • Jeremyz0r, on 07/09/2008, -3/+1But, buttttt... There will always be *****/messes at the G.W.B. Sewage plant.
      It'll cover everything up with filters.
    • biznatch11, on 07/09/2008, -0/+6I'm going to rename my butt the George W. Bush sewage production plant.
      • CSharpSauce, on 07/09/2008, -0/+1I will donate $5 to you paypal account for a picture of that tatooed on your ass (please keep the imagry in the picture to a bare minimum)
  • specialK16, on 07/09/2008, -7/+4When you see it.....
  • OC73, on 07/09/2008, -27/+18What's really pathetic is these same loons would probably name City Hall after Saddam Hussein.
  • Halligan, on 07/09/2008, -13/+16I agree with Brstilson - Sewage plants actually treat the waste to minimize damage. Something like a landfill would be more appropriate.
    • Anthop, on 07/10/2008, -0/+3Ditto. Sewage plants are actually important for preserving our environment and being useful and competent and other stuff that Bush is not. Frankly, I'm afraid we'd be doing a huge disservice to sewage plants everywhere by naming one of them after the President.
  • mistermaster, on 07/09/2008, -7/+3"The plant that they're seeking to rename really offers extraordinary environmental benefits. Without it, raw sewage and storm water would flow into the bay and the oceans and the streets."

    From what I understand, the people opposing this say that it's too good for Bush?
  • zacharytelschow, on 07/09/2008, -24/+22Really? These people have nothing better to do and we have nothing better to do than to read about it? Buried, what a waste of space.
  • IphtashuFitz, on 07/09/2008, -8/+4Sorry, but I wouldn't trust the GWB sewage treatment plant with my *****. He's done such a lousy job that I'd be afraid that simply naming the facility after him would cause it to fail & let raw sewage run straight through it so it could pollute the environment.
  • culbeda, on 07/09/2008, -6/+13This is an affront to sewage treatment plants everywhere!
  • rdtreefrog, on 07/09/2008, -11/+6I know its fun to Bush bash, but if you are an American, you need to ask yourself -- did you do anything to stop him from being elected TWICE, did you vote for him, or worse did you not vote at all? If either of the latter choices, you share the fault.

    And btw, same applies if you let McSame get elected.
    • stevetrojanman, on 07/09/2008, -7/+7Or Blowbama for that matter...

      See...two can play the whiny partisan game...
    • nurse007, on 07/09/2008, -0/+2Hi rdtreefrog...I agree with you 100%. I didn't vote for him either time..he's such a moron. The second time, he won illegally. Votes didn't matter. Florida was a scam. Gr8 name...McSame..I'll have to remember that. Comment by trojanman "blowbama"...seems to have a one track mind. I'd rather discuss how we can improve a gov't of and by the people. We certainly don't have it now. If you're not part of the process, you are part of the problem.
      • stevetrojanman, on 07/09/2008, -2/+2So, wait...

        The anti-McCain poster calls him a name and it's commended...
        The anti-Obama poster calls him a name and it's obvious that he has a one-track mind...

        Sounds like I'm not the one with the one-track mind...
  • LtD4n, on 07/09/2008, -2/+8Bush: This place got a pool?
    Ty Webb: Pool and a pond... Pond be good for you.
  • hexydes, on 07/09/2008, -17/+22What a bunch of petty and immature people. This is what five-year-old children do in kindergarten. Grow up. If you disagree with someone, use words to start an intelligent discussion about how you feel, not your local "city power" to do what amounts to calling someone a name in public.

    You wonder why wars start; it's because people like this run around acting like a bunch of damned children.
    • stevetrojanman, on 07/09/2008, -11/+14Welcome to the mindset of the liberal...
      • KainHighwind, on 07/09/2008, -4/+8Your response should be the only comment on this thread. Genius.
    • Jeremyz0r, on 07/09/2008, -8/+4On the contrary, hypocrite.
      • hexydes, on 07/09/2008, -5/+6On the contrary? So you're saying that what intelligent and mature people should do IS go around and call people names and insult them?

        And hypocrite? I recommend you go to your local book depository and find yourself a dictionary.
      • Jeremyz0r, on 07/09/2008, -2/+1I'm fully aware of the definition to that word, seems your 'high and mighty' come back gets the immature diggers to back you. You seem to be only capable of demeaning other's intelligence, your words are petty. Actions speak louder the words, obviously you're in this article because of it.

        I have multiple bases to call your a hypocrite, you contradict yourself and you're insulting others. (Don't call them names no, just make sure they look retarded.) I'm waiting for the reply "It's constructive criticism", however, that's just a shield of *****.
        -
        You're an ass.
    • publiclurker, on 07/09/2008, -5/+5No, wars start because war mongering, draft dogging deserters are put in charge of anything more important than a crapper.
    • gigamugged, on 07/09/2008, -5/+3Petty and immature seems like the perfect tribute to the world's most petty and immature president, don't you think?
    • Blydchyld, on 07/09/2008, -2/+2How many wars did this cause?

      How many wars did Bush cause?
  • xsecretfiles, on 07/09/2008, -1/+15Do it, See if he cares
  • sonar1, on 07/09/2008, -9/+6bush(it) happens...
  • Rotzooi, on 07/09/2008, -14/+10Sewage plant or not, I'm looking forward to the day I can piss on this guy's grave. Literally. It's not much, and too late, but it'll make me feel good - in more than one way, even.
    • stevetrojanman, on 07/09/2008, -6/+10It's an honor to share my status as a human with you...

      /sarcasm
  • ColorBlind, on 07/09/2008, -7/+5I can honestly say I did not vote for the idiot. High five for everyone who did....
  • sonar1, on 07/09/2008, -9/+1im moving to sf, i want george w bush to clean up my *****
  • seraph582, on 07/09/2008, -5/+23***** that - name it the "RIAA/MPAA Sewage Treatment Facility," since it's a pipedream to think that any of the candidates running now are going to be any better.
    • Jeremyz0r, on 07/09/2008, -5/+5Obama will have us out of Iraq in 16 months.
      McCain (if he remembers) within 100 years.

      That is to say if McCain doesn't move us to Iran.
      • keymanjim2, on 07/09/2008, -3/+5Welcome misinformed liberal. Tin foil hats are to the left. Please don't breed.
      • DaDrake, on 07/09/2008, -1/+4McCain said our presence will be there for that long... and historically, he is right. Obviously, we still have bases in Japan and Germany while we don't interfere with any of their governments (in fact, when they closed one base in Germany near Lubek ... the local government petition the US to not move; fact is, small communities are dependent on US soldiers wasting their money at the Kinos over there).
      • Jeremyz0r, on 07/09/2008, -0/+2@keymanjim2: Are you retarded? Try paying attention to the candidates and listening to their plans. Weather it's true or not, one of them has a better 'plan' over all.
  • MrFurious2k, on 07/09/2008, -9/+18Don't they have some better use for their time? Perhaps they could find another cause to protest.
    • hexydes, on 07/09/2008, -1/+7No, because it's much easier to point fingers, find fault, and call names, than it is to actually try and do the things necessary to make the world a better place.
  • biogears, on 07/09/2008, -11/+18This story appeals to the Juvenile Geeky Left. They will ultimately have to grow up.
    • Jeremyz0r, on 07/09/2008, -5/+3Then consider me a Juvenile Geek, where can I sign? I have a legit name!!
      (Does it matter that I live in N.Y.?)
    • jimb0, on 07/09/2008, -6/+5It's not juvenile, it's rather appropriate IMO. I hope it happens.
  • Aero347, on 07/09/2008, -8/+8OC73 sorry to say that 75% of Americans feel we shouldn't be in there in the first place. The CIA even confirms that the US is at an even higher risk for a terrorist attack since the start of this presidency. So yeah, I think we feel like he's left alot of ***** for us to clean up that we didn't want made in the first place.
    • DaDrake, on 07/09/2008, -5/+2Terrorism is caused by NGOs and UNs spreading liberal ideas that they, a traditional culture, disagrees with. The US military activity in that region has been minimal and both muslim and arab nations dislike the USA (USA involvement with arab nations has been nearly nill). The fact is, the UN and NGOs are determined to fund abortions, gay rights, no fault divorces, and other "liberal" philosophies to traditional countries; you may agree with these (I think how they treat women and gays are horrible sometimes) but you MUST expect a reaction when the overwhelming majority opposes such actions.

      The fact is, the dictators in the middle-east are the most liberal. The UN activity opposed the US action for democracy because, as one Danish person said, it will undermine all the "progress" we made there (as in, tolerance for certain groups). The fact is, the Iraq government (as predicted) because more conservative (they enacted sharia law).
  • timponester, on 07/09/2008, -8/+1I think it fits quite nicely since he has been telling the american public nothing but sh&*y lies since he got into office!

    • hexydes, on 07/09/2008, -2/+4You definitely need to get out more...
  • drunkturkey, on 07/09/2008, -1/+8Bad idea. What comes out of those plants is basically drinkable water - so, in reality, this would probably be an honor for the man.
  • augustwest30, on 07/09/2008, -3/+10That would be too generous. Sewage treatment plants actually clean up messes.
  • merlin5, on 07/09/2008, -11/+6A clever pollster can spin 75% of Americans to say they feel anything he wants to. An out of context quote from the CIA doesn't make anything true. We are witnessing one of the greatest achievements of our time...a democratic and free Iraq. And there has not been a terrorist attack on American interests since Bush became president.
    The only ***** I see is what the lefties are spewing.
    • gigamugged, on 07/09/2008, -3/+7A democratic and free Iraq just asked us to set a timetable for pulling out our troops, and Bush just said no. Your definition of democracy is somewhat suspect. As for not being attacked, you do remember this event that happened on September 11th, right? Six months into one of the most corrupt and incompetent presidencies in history? Or did you not consider Bush's first term to be legitimate due to the vote fraud?
      • merlin5, on 07/09/2008, -6/+3slurrrrrrp goes the koolaid. Clinton was the most corrupt and incompetant President (laughing all the way to the bank)
        First term not legitimate? What a sore loser.
      • hyperglitter, on 07/09/2008, -1/+3slurrrrrp goes the avoiding the rest of the comment (what does that even mean?). Hey guys my blatant contradiction was revealed and I feel so bad about being dumb enough to say that 9/11 didn't happen that I'm going to change the subject to another president!! Yeah!!! Are you that deluded into hating liberals? Do you blame 9/11 on them too?
  • evo8ftw, on 07/09/2008, -11/+8Seriously how old are these people ? I don't care if you like him or not at least be mature enough to respect the office he holds.
    • publiclurker, on 07/09/2008, -6/+5if anybody respected the office, they wouldn't have put this piece of filth into it.
      • Greengoo, on 07/09/2008, -4/+7The problem here is that, like him or not, enough people in this country voted for him to put him there. You want to trace the source of the problem? Talk to the religious right.
      • evo8ftw, on 07/09/2008, -5/+4Yeah the religious right is the problem! Good Call! We should probably just start euthanasing them like the Jews?

        Is there really a problem? Guess what as much as you want Iraq to be Vietnam it isn't. I know you all find joy in being hippies but seriously its the 21st centruy..
      • evo8ftw, on 07/09/2008, -4/+2huh???????????????????????????????????
  • nick1971, on 07/09/2008, -4/+5It might even help him. With all that fertilizer floating arround his brain might grow from its current status of a lonely uni-cellular organism to something more complex.
