Is this finally being posted here? It was at crazy godlikeproductions.com hours ago. As soon as Bongo left the workers got back on their buses and left. None of them would say who hired them for their one hours work.

In these troubled times, it’s easy to find 400 people willing to work a few hours for a photo op. The matching tee shirts and white pants were a nice touch.

The local Fox station asked BP why the workers left after Obummer's visit. BP stated that it probably got too hot to work anymore.
I had to turn off the TV and go walk outside for a while because I try not to throw objects and kick things in the house.

If it would have been SEIU, they would have beaten a clean pelican.

unbelievable... Another one of Obama’s magic traveling shows. Everywhere he goes, he buses in his clapper clowns. Now BP is helping Zero out with his charades.

OMG... Did you see the clip of Carville speaking in what looked like either preachers robes or graduation robes with sunglasses on...

The problem I have with this is the left is trying to only BLAME BP, you cannot tell me that Obama-Osama didn’t know about it.

They looked like a bunch of former ACORN workers to me.

This is just crap.
