SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - A San Francisco-based group is offering a plan to name a sewage treatment plant after President Bush -- calling it a tribute to the outgoing chief executive and the "mess" he'll leave behind.

The Presidential Memorial Commission of San Francisco wants to rename the Oceanside Water Pollution Control Plant the George W.
Bush Sewage Plant. Supporters are hoping to put the issue on the
November ballot. They say they've turned in more than 10,000
signatures to San Francisco election officials.

Opponents think the plan reeks. The city's Republican Party
chairman has promised a fight if the measure makes the ballot.

A call to White House press officials was not returned.

Well San Franciso-could it be they are ticked because he does not support their gay marriages? If they want to talk messes, why don’t they look at the staggering number of AIDS cases, drug abuse and homelessness in that area. Now that is one STINKING mess.
