THANK YOU COLUMBUS!!!

Anyone have a count on the number of out of state busses that were on campus? I would bet there are more than one or two.

sometimes....life can be pretty sweet!

Dateline Columbus, Ohio

Today obelezebub and his dark angel played to a crowd of tens of lukewarm supporters and other assorted nuts.

Another view, this one taken by a non-state media photographer (from the Breitbart site). I wonder how many of the people on the floor are media/staff/police?

[Gaffer]

Where were the Greek Columns and the Togas for the Emporer and Empress? They couldn’t find any unused circus tent for Michelle the Mooch?

[Texas Eagle]

Not to worry. The people will be photoshopped in like a fake birth certificate at a later date.

[zwerni]

They shouldn’t have scheduled the job fair on the same day.

Take the time and go here for an excellent video:

They’ll have to start busing around the Occupy Wall Street crowd to fill the venues.

[2111USMC]

OMG! They couldn't find enough drooling commie kids at OSU to fill an auditorium for the Great One?

Doesn't look good for Barry Soetoro.

All those seats are empty because everybody was working that day, having acquired jobs under Obama's robust job recovery programs and the booming economy!

I hope this isn't really necessary, but... [/sarc]

[SampleMan]

I’ve seen other photos showing a well lit stadium, where the empty seating was clear.

I wonder which AP hack decided to darken the background on this photo before releasing it.

Notice how photo is cropped so as to not show the Wookie’s WIDE LOAD posterior?

[Artcore]

Looks like these young people who voted for Obama when they were Freshmen and Sophomores (and who opted not to join the maggot infested OWS crowd) are out looking for jobs.

Obama is a POS!

[mikrofon]

On the plus side, the empty seats served to enhance the God-like reverb of His majestic voice....

[DeFault User]

If they had opened with the comedy styling of Joe Biden, the crowd would have been much larger and in a better mood.

Perhaps some Virginians (or others) may remember this remark from an early-November 2008 campaign visit to Virginia, when Obama said:

'If you’ll stand with me, then I know that we can win Virginia and we can win this election and we can finally bring the change we need to Washington,' Obama told the estimated crowd of 35,000. 'I feel like we got a righteous wind at our backs here.'”

For any who didn't notice the descriptive term used here as being a little out of the ordinary for a political candidate, consider these words from Chairman Mao:

“The ill wind of opportunism is falling, the righteous wind of socialism is on the rise.”

Later, during this Administration's early days, there was the White House's Anita Dunn's declaration that Mao is her "go to" philosopher.

What about the rhetoric of 2012?

OBAMA SPEECH IN WRIGLEY FIELD - November 1, 2012.

Sweet!

I liked a comment at the site:

Those seats are not empty, that’s where the dead voters are seated.
