OBAMA-BIDEN EVENT: Springfield, Illinois-LIVE THREAD
08/23/08

Posted on 08/23/2008 11:44:35 AM PDT by 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....

Biden’s explanation—

I was a candidate for President back then, so I was lying.

Now that I am a veep candidate, I am telling the “real” truth.

After we lose, I will tell you the “absolute” truth.

People with low IQs seem to be uniquely fitted for Congress.

Well, now isn’t that cute? Barak Obama now has an adult baby-sitter. Too bad the adult is a nutty weird-o.

The American people were better than their government in Washington. That’s why I chose someone whose been there since I was a little boy.

“I just don’t think Biden is going to draw many large crowds.”

Has he tried free rock concerts?

Obambi is desperately trying to invoke the spirit of Abe Lincoln from Springfield, IL......

Dear Mr. Obambi,

You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can’t fool all of the people all of the time.

YOU ARE NO ABE LINCOLN!

Sincerely,

Abe Lincoln

p.s. Have you figured out where Kentucky is yet, DOOFUS?

Hypothetical right?

Obama’s entire life is a contradiction - I sure hope nobody thinks his campaign will be any different.

Barak’s own name is a farce and may end up being the cause of his disqualification - but, we can enjoy the show in the meantime ;-)

Classics. Time for a new tagline.

Interesting tips revealed in the sign:

Obviously, Obama's name is on top, but also notice that 'Obama' is in white, while 'Biden' is in pale blue.

Also, 'Biden' is in the same font style, but a smaller font size.

I'm sure Bob Herbert would see a sexual innuendo here........
