That's how Rush 'Barry the Magic Negro' Limbaugh will lead the charge. Yet we ask why intelligent beings from beyond our solar system never drop by, never call, never write...

And guess what? When Joe Biden speaks to them tomorrow - they will cheer and give Biden a standing ovation. And guess what again? Last time I checked, Biden was... get ready for it. White!

they were booing Obamacare. d'oh
And Rep. Joe was just trying to liven up the House that day,
the way they do in the UK parliament. It's quite the latest
fad apparently, to shout and fart like this in public, especially
if CSPAN is there, makes being a politician much more fun
these days or so we've heard.
Anyway the NAACP folks were just pretending to boo at Romney.
(They did give him a signal of their secret support, via standing ovation
at the end.
But it must otherwise be kept hush-hush, their true support for Romney.
The majority of them don't want anyone to know they secretly
won't vote for Obama. Most are fearful something terrible will happen if
they confess, we guess.)
