    Obama drew a crowd of 100,000 in St. Louis today, his largest ever in the US by far. The edge of that crowd must be half a mile away!

    And New York has more people than St Louis. Just a little.

    100,000 people that hate America?

    In a red state?

    Seems to be the case.

    Wish I had been there. I've had many a beer, listened to lots of good music, and watch some incredible fireworks shows under the Gateway Arch. It's a great place to enjoy the Fourth of July!

    You think the Fourth of July is still going to be allowed? I mean, maybe we shouldn't be taking sides. [​IMG]

    Oilfield, your country is going to be so much better with an Obama presidency you're going to elevate your appreciation of your country.

    He meant to say you will be directed "...to elevate your appreciation of your country."

    More like 2,000 people went to see Obama and 98,000 went to see the back of someone else's head. Must suck to be way back in the back.

    I didn't know there were so many socialists in St. Louis. Or people who support terrorists.

    100,000? He got 250,000 in Berlin - maybe a million.

    His support must be slipping.

    Meh. The crowd wasn't that impressive.

    What was impressive was Obama feeding them all with a single can of sardines and a pack of saltines.

    ooops. I didn't mean to add the $ sign. [​IMG]

    See ...... I was balancing my checkbook as well and just.....

    I just edited the post. Does it make sense now? I was shocked no one had picked that low hanging fruit.
