Honestly, I think the Obama supporters had every right to be there. You can’t knock those kids just because they were demonstrating.

Have any of you held a “welcoming committee” for an opponent when they have come to your town? I’m sure many of you have, and you are commended for it.

I have had the opportunity to be a part of it this election cycle. In fact, I was part of a “welcoming committee” when former Pres. Bill Clinton spoke at a local college in support of Obama. We were a small group and we had every right to be there. We stood there with our plungers and held our signs. I was there and I was excercising my right to free speech. I think more people should’ve been there too. We conservatives don’t speak up enough.

I understand that the line to see Sarah Palin is the big news story for that town, but that is the biased media doing the reporting. I stood in a long line to see Sarah Palin recently, and it was energizing. Our stupid newspaper covered the story terribly, just as expected.

Although they may have the 1st amendment right to be there, their presence is not welcome. This is a McCain/Palin political campaign rally. By being there they are rude, insensitive, disruptive and obnoxious. How would they feel if 40-50 Conservatives showed up at an Obama rally and were disruptive. They would be ticked, and I imagine the thousands that are there at this rally are ticked. If you don’t like McCain/Palin or you’re so enthralled with Obama you can’t see straight, then go to his rallies. They are not invited nor welcome!

I’ll knock those lazy seditious un-American bums and traitors all I want to.

They should have been kept blocks away.
