ROTFL!!!! Isaac's REVENGE!

Presenting Obama as a mound of sand was a stroke of symbolic brilliance by the 'RATS!!! I love it!

So much for a Big Tent approach.

Oh well.. reckun this ought to serve as just one more reminder of the chill winds of change that are whistling thru the nation.. this is symbolic of his agenda,, built of and on sand.

Did they really make a sand telepromptor too?

Side note - looks like some more rain showing up on the radar in the Charlotte area. Let’s hope it’s a real “gully-washer”!

Well, at least the TOTUS is unharmed.

Rather prophetic, I would hope, that his base is washing away.
