27. It is the height of incivility to not offer people a chair.

What an uncomfortable venue. He's not going to win the footsore, the tired, the elderly or the unfit with that lay-out.
All I can say is, whoever is doing his advance work...."Heckuvajob, Brownie!" |

29. There are techniques the Bush administration used to cover such lapse in enthusiasm.
|
Guess Mittens is only speaking for the one percent who show up for his rallies. No need for a crowd.

15. Or that you had to show up @ 10:00 AM for a 1:30 PM speech, go through security screening,
|
or that the empty seats were @ the top of the arena and or had bad sight lines.
Obama's speech was less then 2 miles from my house but I had to work and had "daddy duty" to do too or I would have been there. I watched his speech on line and the place was rocking.
now this is an embarrassing turn out. Mitt's crowd in his home state of Michigan |

23. They are so desperate that Will is now leading memes

As opposed to what he normally does which is repeat memes at the end of their cycle with fancy words (to repubs).

18. Maybe one of your servants can help you with your taxes

That way you don't have to pay someone extra ~ one of the other servants can do double duty. From our side ~ who is calling him out on this ~ if Obama got his in that is not FAIR- is it? |

Former pro basketball star Charles Barkley had some words for presumptive GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney.
"We're going to beat you like a drum in November," said Barkley, now an analyst with TNT. "Don't take it personally. I like you. You seem like a nice guy ... but you're going down, bro." Barkley's comments on Sunday night came as a picture of Romney, who was attending the Boston Celtics game against the Atlanta Hawks, flashed on the TV screen. http://content.usatoday.com/communities/onpolitics/post/2012/05/charles-barkley-mitt-romney-beat-like-a-drum-/1?csp=34news#.T6hh_OvOUW8 |
