A little perspective folks ... (on the "Cleveland Miracle")

A little perspective folks ...

Rush Limbaugh says that the kidnappers were in Cleveland and, since "Cleveland voted for Obama", the implication is that the kidnappers voted for Obama.

Maybe.

But then, I don't see the guy who made the 911 call (credited as a "hero&quot as being the type that voted for McCain, Bush, or Romney, since the Republicans say that blacks vote overwhelmingly for Democrats.

Nor do I see the guy who helped them escape voting for a Republican, mainly because they'd be screaming at him to "SPEAK ENGLISH".

However, someone I do see someone in Cleveland voting for Republicans ... the "new owner" of the Cleveland Browns, Jimmy Haslam ... probably took the money from the rebates SUPPOSED to go to small businesses and funding Republican candidates, including his Republican Governor brother.
