Im really hoping MSM has this all over the talk shows tomorrow.
I think we should all do the best we can to push this story in any manner we can...
This is bad and I believe many of the common sensed republicans (?) will be shitting all over themselves tomorrow..
Well, Im hoping...and unfortunately I am usually wrong....But lets admit it...This is bad for them...

The @MoStateFair celebrates Missouri and our people. I condemn the actions disrespectful to POTUS the other night. We are better than this.

(13,390 posts)and I think he's the first state government official to speak out. I'm sure Jay Nixon will say something. I'm anxious to see if the republican legislators from that area are going to have anything to say.
It really is an appalling incident. I hope that superintendent is relieved of his duties.
edit: Claire McCaskill has also condemned it.

(15,682 posts)you were suggesting we push the story in support of the clown face. I've read some things here on DU lately, that have been equally disrespectful - actually, even more so. It just makes me sad. It feels like our party is breaking apart.

(8,515 posts)Either its trolls who have been paid invaders coming from heavily funded areas or
its people who are going after our POTUS because of the Drone and Spying issues...
I personally think when its over and done... Obama will explain exactly why he took the position he he did on the two issues... Hes not a freaking bankster, child murderer, or a McCarthy like spy...He does not deserve the shit he is getting around here...

That's really all that needs to be said about the nightmare crap-hole that is central Missouri.

It is very common to have decoys that will attract a bull's attention helping to keep them away from a potentially injured cowboy or bullfighter.
It doesn't lessen the impact or make it less despicable, in essence it is having the president gored in effigy, but in the interest of accuracy I feel the need to point this out.
