CHARLOTTE, N.C. A torrential downpour that struck Charlotte Saturday afternoon damaged the Mount Rushmore-style sand sculpture bust of President Obama an ominous beginning to what many fear is a plagued convention.
Workers were trying Saturday afternoon to reform the base of the sculpture, built from sand brought in from Myrtle Beach, S.C., pounding and smoothing out the sand that had washed off the facade.

Matthew 7:24-27
New International Version (NIV)
The Wise and Foolish Builders
24 Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. 26 But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. 27 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.
Is anyone else really creeped out by this? These minions built a statue for their messiah. Ive only seen this in Communist countries, they do this in North Korea, never thought I’d see the day where I see this kind of insanity here
Matthew 7:24
God did that.
Is the white sand racist?
That proves God’s racist. /libthink
Banner on hangar at Sioux City (airport code SUX): Obama welcome to SUX, and We did build this
LOL
Obama and SUX--perfect together!
It is suppose to rain all week here,
is it even LEGAL to remove 1.5 tons of sand from Myrtle beach? what about beach erosion and protection?
God is funny sometimes!
If I had pissed all over it would they have called it art?
Just like his Greek columns and his birth certificate and his presidency) it is all fake!!!
Props....anytime you can seamlessly work a Hendrix lyric into a thread is a good day.
[Found before a crumbling statue of one-term Emperor-by-Trick Obama]
"We first heard of an undocumented man named Obama ,
Who denied all the confusion with a Kenyan and Osama.
But at every turn, he worked to have our country defeated,
With every enemy and disaster, he conspired to have us deleted,
Sneered he, death panels, czars and taxes will soon end ya'."
Thank Goodness TOTUS was unharmed! (whew!)
I wonder if the hurricane had been named “Ishmael” if the results would have been different?
Somebody needs to build a giant empty chair made of sand outside the Dem convention, pronto.
That’s a visual I didn’t need.
It’s basically idol worship. FALSE idol, for sure!
The road closings are official, and the locals are pretty unhappy. Zero couldn’t stay in Uptown, of course, near the stadium. Not when the Ballantyne has a $2,000/night Presidential Suite and a helipad.
