Peoria Illinoisan

The Journal Star is reporting that President Bush will be making a stop in Peoria:
“While details of the visit have yet to be released, Bush will visit Caterpillar Inc. and make a couple of other stops, the Journal Star has learned.”

Where will he be visiting and what will his message be? While at Caterpillar, will he be showing off his environmental record by discussing the new low emission diesels or will he jump up into a big Cat tractor to show his power and strength, while touting his plans for Iraq?

Where do you think the “couple of other stops” will be? I’m guessing a school might be a logical stop. Maybe he’ll use Whittier as an example of how well the educational system has been during his administration. Mr. Hinton would like that.

How about immigration? That’s always a hot topic. He can explain his stance while eating lunch at one of our fine Mexican restaurants or after he attends one of the all Spanish masses at the Cathedral.

Coffee shops are always popular stops for visiting politicians to show that they can relate to the common folk. If he wants police protection, I suggest he visit the BP Amoco on Western.

Will Ray show him the school plans for Glen Oak or will he focus on getting that trail we so desperately need? (”You know, George, if you get rid of earmarks, I may not be able to secure the funds needed for this trail.”)

Where ever he ends up, whatever he says, like him or not, it is guaranteed to be a fun filled day for Peorians.
