This is an event made for a counter protest.

Will Barry hang glide into the stadium...how about a parachute drop, a cannon shoot, or rising from below the stage (for that messiah effect). Here's Lurch via boat to recreate Vietnam:

Obama will be making this acceptance speech on the anniversary of Martin Luther King's "I Had a Dream" speech.

Probably shouldn't highlight the part about "not on the basis of the color of his skin but on the content of his character" because if it truly were about character Obambi wouldn't be the nominee. He doesn't have a record, has very malleable "convictions" and his cast of characters (Rezko, Wright, Ayers, et al) is all that we have to judge him on.

I've read a couple of accounts recently where the Dalai Bama wasn't packing them in like he was earlier in the year. Fortune magazine pointedly mentioned that in a recent article.

Rush reported on this one that the major Drive-Bys must have missed:



Empty Seats for Messiah Speech

This could explain the comment that appeared here on FR a few days ago stating that the word was out that the Dem’s would give out $200 vouchers to any homeless people who could get to Denver for the convention.

Can we get the CIA to seed the clouds, like conspiracists say they did over Woodstock?

Bet Terry McAuliffe suggested this one. Obama will be in the football stadium looking at a bunch of empty seats while Hillary lumbers onto the podium to accept the Party’s nomination in the Pepsi Center in place of her AWOL opponent.

That's what I keep wondering...and if Barry is not the nominee? Does Clinton Inc. already have the convention venues in their plans?

Rush reported on an article written by Donald Sutherland that refers to a new conspiracy theory led by the Punk for just this purpose--giving the nomination to Mrs. Clinton. However, I heard on Fox that Uncle Ted bargained his endorsement to get Caroline on that VP committee...apparently, she now wants to be involved in politics. This stadium idea was hers.

I’m as opposed to this guy as anyone, but our side looks like a bunch of bigoted yokels when we harp on the name. For pete’s sake, he didn’t name himself (unlike the Nation of Islam jokers). When I hear this stuff coming from conservatives, I almost sympathize with Obama. It’s when I hear about his POLICIES that I want to deport him to Cuba.

I stil think this will end up another Dem fiasco.(don’t know why, but I do) We are supposed to be electing a President, not a rock star.

The Dems will mess this event up. Caroline Kennedy needs to stay out of the limelight. She is looking a fool.

People won't see the empty seats, the media will see to it.....

From last week's show:

RUSH: We're going to go back to the archives, ladies and gentlemen. The Democrat National Convention, as you know, is coming up. In case you haven't heard, no fried food for delegates at the Democrat National Convention. The food is going to have to be color coordinated so that it's pleasing to look at. No fried food whatsoever at any official function at the Democrat National Convention. It is the weirdest of the extreme wacko left on parade. As you know, there are a bunch of protest groups out there called Recreate 68, a number of others. They also have, much as New York had in 1992, in Denver, they've got a little bit of a problem about what to do with the homeless during the Democrat National Convention.

(playing of homeless update theme song)

...Now, they got 4,000 homeless people in Denver. Did you know this? You never hear about the homeless in Denver. You hear about them in San Francisco. You hear about them in New York. I never hear about the homeless in Denver. They got 4,000 of them out there, and Denver has promised to make these nearly 4,000 homeless people comfortable during the Democrat National Convention in August. They have enlisted private donations for extra hours at local shelters. They want private donations to go out and buy flat-screen TVs to install at the homeless shelters, and they want those flat-screen TVs turned to cable news in the evening so that the homeless will watch the Democrat convention. They want to sweep 'em off the street.

Now, not even New York thought of this. Back in 1992 they just came around, picked 'em up like a bunch of vagrants, put 'em in paddy wagons, took 'em way down near Wall Street and said, "Okay, gang, it's up to you to walk back." This was at Madison Square Garden. It took them two weeks to get back up there, but they swept the homeless from the area at Madison Square Garden. We sent Lo Bianco with a video camera out there trying to find the homeless, and they were nowhere to be found. Denver, let me give you some advice here. You're dealing with the homeless, and you're dealing with Democrats, and you don't want them seen, right? You don't want the homeless seen anywhere near your convention. This is crazy. The homeless are your voters. The homeless are people that you turn to. They're living a life of misery, and they are the people that you think make up the country. They're suffering from the Bush administration policies and all of this. So you want to get them out of the way. No, don't get 'em out of the way. Give 'em some walking-around money. If you're going to get 'em some flat screens, go out and get 'em some cigarettes, buy them some adult beverages so they can watch television, a little popcorn, and while you're at it, put some voter registration cards in the homeless shelters while they are watching your convention. In fact, make registering to vote a requirement to get into the homeless shelter. The Democrats are losing touch. They used to be smarter than this.

This is a New York Times story today: "Such accommodations will not be offered to the dozens of groups planning to protest the convention, who have complained that they are being forced to protest from fenced enclosures -- 'freedom cages,' they call them -- well out of earshot of the convention site. Tom Mestnik, a member of The Recreate 68 Alliance--" Stop and think of that. If you want to Recreate 68 at a Democrat National Convention, what do you want to recreate? Mayhem, riots, general anarchy. And so Denver and the Democrats are going to put 'em behind a fence, a freedom fence, freedom cage. And this member of the Recreate 68 Alliance, "an umbrella group organizing the protesters, said, 'We'll be like zoo animals. We're going to be hundreds of feet away from the delegates. They won't be able to see us or hear us. It's really creating Boston and New York all over again.' The American Civil Liberties Union helped file a lawsuit on the behalf of more than a dozen groups, arguing that their First Amendment rights are being violated by the restrictions," that Denver and the Democrats are putting on them. "Glenn Spagnuolo, a spokesman for The Recreate 68 Alliance, said the planned site was obscured by news media tents, which will be placed between the protesters'--" everything's falling apart here. You know, this is (interruption) well, that's a good question. H.R. wants to know how they're going to tell the homeless apart from the protesters. The protesters will be behind cages. The homeless will be in shelters watching television, eating fried food. The fried food will be at the homeless shelters, not inside the convention hall.

But this disappoints me. A fence never stopped anybody in Chicago. All these restraints never stopped anybody in Chicago. Jump the fence, Glenn, for crying out loud. You guys aren't worth your name, Recreate 68, if you're just going to sit there as a bunch of docile little puppies and agree to be absconded and placed behind a cage. You guys are not the protesters I always thought you were. Well, they might be too old to jump. I hadn't thought of that, too old to jump. Don't go in the fence in the first place, then. Or if you go in there, go in with some wire cutters so you don't have to jump the fence. These protesters are letting me down. These people, nothing would stop them, and now they're becoming a bunch of conformists. The media, and Democrats want 'em in cages? And they're going to go inside cages and complain about being treated like animals? You know, what was shaping up to be a riotous -- in a humorous way, of course -- Democrat National Convention is going to be a giant bore fest. I mean, for crying out loud, why don't you guys at least go talk to Bill Ayers in Chicago, get some tips here, maybe a couple bombs somewhere. Well, it may sound a bit much, but to agree to be imprisoned as a protester in a cage? And to have Democrats put protesters in cages? I don't know. I think the protesters have to bring their own food. I don't think the Democrats are going to give them food. They gave the media food, but they aren't going to give the protesters food. Now, this is a bad sign. This is disappointing.

Dear Hillary,

Please gut this sickly looking puke, like a fish. Work your magic, baby.

There will not be an empty seat. In fact, they'll be selling for $1,500 on EBay.

The media shenanigans will come when they claim it's all to see Obama, and not the major rock stars they trot out to warm up the crowd.

I'm guessing they'll have the likes of Springsteen, Coldplay, Puff Daddy, and various movie stars trotting on and off the stage for a few hours.

You know, it could be that the MSM and the Obama campaign are going to overexpose him. Maybe many people will get sick of him before the election.

I think it is beginning to happen.

Perhaps Puff Daddy will lead the crowd with his new chant—Obama or die!

Shhhh... doesn't fit the narrative. Everyone KNOWS that Obama fills up every venue he appears at.

I tell ya, going to be hard to hide 20-30,000 empty seats (or more). Lots of tight shots, with a proper mix of diversity in the background, of course.

I commented on an earlier thread that Obama supporters marched in our local 4th of July parade. I was heartened by the fact that they received just as many cheers as the town garbage trucks. And this is an urban, mostly black, location in the south. Gotta be a stronghold for him.

Barring a major problem, McCain will win the election. And, I wouldn't be surprised if it was a landslide. Only way Obama wins is if the election was in February. Too bad for him, he peaked too early.
