Plans to Paint Golden Gate
Bridge Green In 2010 – CoverUps.com 

One of California's most beloved landmarks is alledgedly about to have a facelift of epic proportions. For the past twenty years, a small interest group has been fighting to make change in the city of San Fransisco. But many say this time they have gone too far. A  few rogue newspapers out of the bay claim that this group has finally won the fight and in 2010, the Golden Gate Bridge will be painted green.

Quotes the Friscian Press of one Malcom Trout, "We've have been fighting for this one for years and now we can finally celebrate. This is a big step in bringing awareness to our cause."

Coverups.com did some digging. The group's pamphlet that is handed out every Wednesday all of the city states that their cause is apparently to strengthen environmental regulations on corporations as well as force the public to become more environmentally aware. Hence the color choice of green. Other things they have faught for or fighting for the past two decades are the down-sizing of trash cans to force people to recycle, mandatory weekly beach clean up's in schools, and the banning of; six-packs of soda, styrofoam, Hummers, minivans, SUVS, cell phones, spray paint, smoking, coal, and the list goes on and on.

Previous attemps to change the color failed partly in the specific color, not because of the presevation of history. City council members would refuse to put it on any ballot because they did not like a prior choice of white because "it would not stand out from the fog." 

A skeptic would wonder how a small faction could get something so absurd past most of public who would shut it down. After many hours of digging, CoverUps.com found that is was hidden amongst another proposition that was on the November 7th ballot. When many voters found out what they had passed, many were infuriated and took to the streets.

"I cannot believe these commie wackos!" said one Chris Abrams. "I thought I was voting for a simple tax increase!"

The sad truth is that he was, to help pay for painting of the bridge.
