Please...please done’t tell me that’s a giant Mexican Flag hanging inside the hanger under your line:

“From there it was across a short field and into the hanger they had all set up. “

please

Yes, thanks for the post. Nice to get and independent view instead of the nonsense from the msm.

“We were there pretty early so we staked out a spot on the front left in front of the press tables”

So you were staked out by the liars club. Hahaha

I was hoping for a close up of that gal with dark hair, brown blouse who was riding on some guys shoulders who had to be removed.

I do have a shot of that person if you want it. I took about 10 time that many shots. 5 or 6 hundred.

Here’s a video of the second group of protesters being removed:

The first group, the hippy lesbian chicks, weren’t as fun, they walked out yelling about “my body my rights” but didn’t have to be manhandled or anything.

About 18 seconds in on that video you can see me. I was wearing a red shirt and have a diagonal shoulder strap of my camera bag and the camera in my right hand. They walk out right behind me.

“America First”, I like that slogan.

Of course in my time it was “America, Love It or Leave It” and “America Right or Wrong, still My Country”.

Sorry for being so politically incorrect. Hope I didn’t offend anybody.

Look at the blond woman on the left.

Watch her in all the other pictures.

She doesn't look very happy.

Who is she?

Look at photos 30, 33, 34, 37 and others that follow. There is a young woman wearing a read blazer behind and to the left (from our perspective) of Senator McCain that bears a striking resemblance to Chelsea Clinton. And I do apologize to the young woman for pointing this out.

It would be fun to post this on the internet of evidence that Chelsea is supporting McCain/Palin.

Great report you two!

I’ve heard a rumor that they may even be coming to Washington state in a couple of weeks. Maybe I can go see them too? Would be fun.

No? dang. Medved said something about it on his show last week. I wish they would.

Washington’s only down by 2 points lately. Astonishing as it might seem... A McCain Palin trip with a couple of stops in Washington, say, Bellevue and Spokane (which they could do in one day) ~might~ give them enough inertia to flip the state. Miracles do happen. :-)

There’s a lot of libs in King county, but not so many elsewhere, and many of them don’t vote anyway because they don’t think they have to.

Rossi is going to bump the R turnout, and I think he’s going to win by a decent margin. Decent enough that King county won’t be able to manufacture enough votes to steal it this time. The Rossi effect is a little imponderable. Could it be that there will be Rossi coattails for McCain this time? Maybe so. We’ll see.

A visit could really have a huge effect, I think.
