ST. LOUIS - Under the Gateway to the West, the St. Louis arch, Barack Obama addressed an estimated 100,000 people in the “red” Show Me State just 17 days before the general election - his biggest rally to date in the United States.

LOL! No bias in the media, is there?

It does look like some of the pictures were manipulated using the camera lense.

[My Favorite Headache]

The funny thing about the picture is most are white people. So much for the racist thing!

I got a call to go to this rally and I have not lived in St.Louis or that state for 4 years. Why they would call me when I was registered as a republican there is beyond me.

It is a damn shame that we live in a time where one has verify news and photos for oneself.

It was stated that the line is the shadow of the arch.

Wanna bet that the bulk of that crowd is not from ‘red’ Missouri but from ‘blue’ Illinois

Wanna bet a lot of them shouldn't be voting to begin with?

[Joiseydude]

It's still my contention that the entire crowd could have been confined to the west side of I-70.

Can we agree that the red line at the very bottom of this picture represents 70?

If the stage and entire crowd were to the west of 70 how would you be able to get the view of the "interior" of the brown building to the right that you see in this picture?

No, that is not so....

I forget that outstretched arms, Nazi hand salute style, would be an effort to take photos. I wonder if in the back of the Obamamaster's mind there is a thought of receiving an exalting salute.

100,000 people. Beam me up Scotty!

[GVnana]

Why wasn’t it just as big a story when Sarah Palin drew 70,000 in Florida???

GOOD POINT!!! Much more difficult to draw 70,000 in The Villages than 100,000 in inner city St. Louis!

Must have paid those union members quite a bit to be bussed there on a Saturday.

Count on it! You can also bet the black churches had a hand in it. Here in Arkansas they even bussed people to vote on a SUNDAY (after church which was ILLEGAL) to beat Jay Dickey because he voted to IMPEACH Clinton.

The liberals are going to have a cow (or riots) when Obama gets his butt stomped.

“...It was stated that the line is the shadow of the arch....”

Yes, I see the shadow, but the line of faces on the near side of the shadow seem too uniform to be natural.

[Islander7]

“...I forget that outstretched arms, Nazi hand salute style, ...”

Those are people holding up cameras for a picture. No Nazi salutes........yet.

[Lady Heron]

That picture of the crowd and the one in 63 need to be put side be side there is a huge difference in them.

[Joiseydude]

It was stated that the line is the shadow of the arch.

This is what could have cast it's shadow acroos the crowd...

...where is located here....

[kcvl]

WOW, all the people ACORN got unaffordable Mortgages for all in one place

Exactly! They know if Obama gets elected they will get MORE OF YOUR MONEY TOO!!!

[birddog]

Yeah - we here in St. Louis are pigs. Stay in California. We don’t want you here in fly over country.

Think before you type - you are offending 2 million people who live in the St. Louis area, a lot of them conservatives. All cities have problems, but there are a lot of good people here.
