Why was McCain standing in front of a giant picture of Hilton Hotel during his speech last night?

[KittyWampus]

What IS that building. Look at how much green lawn there is.

Was McCain getting ready to shout "STAY OFF MY LAWN"?

Was he TRYING to help people photoshop his sorry ass last night by being in front of green once again?

Was there a slide show during his speech? At least it'd keep people more awake.

Jesus, it looks like the opening shots from the 70's tv show Dynasty.

:wtf:

1. It's Walter Reed Middle School in California

:rofl:

Repukes are such idiots.

5. From many camera shots, he was standing in front of nothing ...

It would appear that not all cameras were set to work with a chroma key wall. Ooops.

[KittyWampus]

6. that's just incompetent

[Fridays Child]

7. And their reason for choosing that backdrop?

:shrug:

[cynatnite]

10. Some idiot was supposed to get a pic of Walter Reed Hospital...

instead they got one of Walter Reed Middle School.

[grannie4peace]

2. maybe he thought it was the hanoi hilton

[MiniMe]

3. It's the Walter Reed Middle School

Some dumb flunky was probably told to get an image of Walter Reed. Epic Fail.

[KittyWampus]

8. they must not have had any budget for set design.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

15. This is way too funny!!! Someone just posted a separate thread on this! Walter Reed MIDDLE SCHOOL!!!

9. Speaking of 80s nighttime soaps, a bit of music used in his video

sounded nearly exactly like the Dallas theme.

[Boz]

11. They used the dallas theme for the reagan retro, it was a slow version, but it was it

[KittyWampus]

14. now you're just yanking my chain... I should have watched

[Boz]

16. Nope I reported it then to, it was the theme with a narrative

I dont think they realized it, because of the slow pace of it. Funnier if they did.

[global1]

12. Was It Paris Hilton?.....nt

[Claire Beth]

13. just one of his 7 homes

[jberryhill]

17. Oh, I thought it was a retirement home /nt

[KittyWampus]

18. there should be some more mockery

[jberryhill]

22. I didn't mean it as mockery - that's what I thought it was...

I feel badly for John McCain to a large extent.

[slackmaster]

19. I was wondering about that - It looks a lot like the old main building of my high school

A 1920s vintage California school building.

[cynatnite]

20. They confused that Walter Reed with this one...

[lynnertic]

23. the middle school is much prettier. boy that sky looks muggy. n/t

[Barack_America]

21. He gave his speech standing in front of a middle school?

How apropos.

:rofl:
