42. Anyone find it ironic that the first Black American President
would draw such a crowd in front of that court house in the background? Think Dred Scott case, 1846.

as not only a non-issue for most voters, but might be driving McInsane's numbers down, and yet they are continuing with this desperate tactic.

MSNBC cut Obama off after 5 minutes, saying they were having trouble with the signal.

27. 100,000 Anti-American Socialists in St. Louis for Obama
http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2008/10/18/141155/28/22/634588

<snip>
Per Ben Smith, a large crowd of 100,000 communist sympathizers and child molesters has assembled in a very anti-American part of America, St. Louis, to see Socialist Senator Barack Obama deliver another diatribe against hard-working billionaires and "real Americans."

The media was alerted and is currently interrogating the 100,000 strong crowd for anti-American sentiment. A list is being compiled and will be handed over to Michelle Bachman later this evening.

These anti-American socialists have gathered under the St. Louis arch to celebrate the end of American exceptionalism and freedom as we know it. Their exuberant cries and whoops of joy foretold the coming American welfare state, in which poor people live in fancy houses and drive big cars, while hard-working rich white people are forced to live on the street in ragged clothes.

No word yet on how these unpatriotic psuedo-Americans were able to find their way to the park to hear Senator Obama, but rumors abound that some arrived via communist means of transportation, like buses, and still others are reported to have come on the wheels of bikes, the known means of transport of atheists and gays.

Great report

was because of the free concert.

free concert let alone draw a crowd of this size.

41. What is GD P ?
I have never been there.

And are you suggesting that we should scan every other forum before posting something here? I only use this one.

Perhaps you should start your own website? Have you ever considered that?
