OBAMA-BIDEN EVENT: Springfield, Illinois-LIVE THREAD

08/23/08

[TornadoAlley3]

Springfield, Illinois We just arrived at the state capitol. We’re told Biden is en route and on the plane Obama spokeswoman Linda Douglass told us that Obama called Biden Thursday night to offer him the job

It is literally 90 degrees warmer than it was on February 10, 2007. The lectern’s all set up with the new Obama/Biden logo. Obama's plane wasn’t changed – the tip that broke Kerry's choice of Edwards in 2004 -- it simply reads “Change We Can Believe In; www.barackobama.com"). A significantly smaller crowd has turned up for this event than the 17,000 for Obama’s presidential roll out....

Did TS Fay go to Illinois? Who is on top?

Obama claims the 1994 Crime Bill started an 8-year crime drop across the nation. Umm, according to statistics from this site:

Delaware Crime Rates

From 1994 until 2002, Delaware's violent crimes certainly didn't go down eight consecutive years as Obama claims.

The world hates us.

[Fresh Wind]

LOL he said let me introduce the next president. Then said vice president.

Actually, that's accurate. Since Lord Obomba is already president, as VP, Biden would be the next president.

[Raebie]

My heart is bleeding...however will he pay his bills?

[Right_in_Virginia]

Everybody hates us, even we hate us.

I can describe ObaHamas' speech in 2 words ... total bollocks.

And Biden ... pure demagoguery.

We can't afford tax cut after tax cut? Who you calling "we" paleface? Does "we" mean you? I didn't think so.

Seven kitchen tables ... gosh, what a clever comment from the Dumbest Man in the Senate.

These people make me want to take a shower.

[apastron]

He sure sounded old after that sprint to the mic.. HUFF-PUFF-HUFF-PUFF

[LibFreeOrDie]

Who’s been doing nothing in DC lately, Joe? Pelosi shut the lights off, not the Republicans.

[pepperhead]

And now on to a little class warfare. 7 houses! So lame.

[tiredoflaundry]

The crops are ruined!!!!

[Raebie]

“Barack Onack Obama”

[spectre]

Well, he went on to say that McCain has SEVEN kitchen tables to sit and talk around.

What a hypocrite.
