[jenmito]

13. Darn it...

I guess I gots me some more learnin' to do. I thought I'd out-do you by putting 5 stars on each side. Now I know why 4 on each side. Thanks, Teach!

[Clio the Leo]

22. No, that would be for the 55th President....

... whomever that will be. lol

[jenmito]

26. Yeah, NOW I know that...

thanks to your educatin' me.

[Clio the Leo]

28. I make up the rules as I go along....

... I learned that from my GOP reps in Congress! :)

[jenmito]

31. It's good, though...

you're quick on your feet. :)

[Clio the Leo]

33. Now THAT I learned...

... from Obama!

[jenmito]

41. I hear THAT!

Even though he's not as good as a couple of my old boyfriends in B-Ball. :)

[gateley]

48. I think Biden should get three, and then down from there. Please revise the manual. nt

[Clio the Leo]

55. a very valid point ... I'll form a committee on the matter. :-) nt

[Clio the Leo]

5. crowd screaming so loud for the President I can hardly hear Sen. Murray. nt

[Life Long Dem]

21. They do sound pretty enthused.

Obama - "Finally we get this car back on the road". "Don't go back in the ditch".

[Clio the Leo]

7. Tells crowd "if you haven't already voted, you need to do it TODAY!"

"not tomorrow, not the next day .... TODAY!"

I got my sticker!

[Clio the Leo]

8. crowd has erupted into "Yes We CAN!" pandemonium...

.... oh those UN-ENTHUSED Democrats!!! ..... lol they're so LOUD!!!!

[CakeGrrl]

9. Sis and nephew are there at Hec Ed

We watched AF1 land at Boeing Field last night. Cool stuff.

Dropped my ballot in the mail yesterday. Git 'er done!

[Clio the Leo]

11. :Terrorist Fist Jab:

Good on you for voting!

[CakeGrrl]

52. Thanks - no way I was gonna sit this one out!

Rossi must be stopped.

[gateley]

49. I was just going to ask if it was in Hec Ed or in the stadium - thanks. I'm SO

envious of your being at Boeing Field. I get chills just thinking about it. NEXT time, I swear, I'll be standing right next to you!

[CakeGrrl]

51. It was fun and low-key - about 20 people by the Museum of Flight, and

about 30-40 police escorts lined up waiting for their cue.

Bomb-sniffing dog checking things out; we got there about an hour or so before he was due in and gradually watched the airspace clear out. Out of nowhere, some big landing lights from the north, and touchdown a little before 9:30. Perfect view of the plane with all its lights on.

It taxied back up the field, and after a while, the motorcade came taxiing back down and right out past us through the MoF entrance - POTUS was in the second limo and you could make him out with the interior lit up. Pretty cool.

See you there next time!

[gateley]

53. Thanks - I was picturing it as I was reading along -- I almost feel like I was there! nt

[Clio the Leo]

12. The Presidential cold appears to be long gone..

... voice is loud and clear.

[Clio the Leo]

19. lol spoke too soon.

Peter Brady came creeping out during that car story.

[Clio the Leo]

14. "we are NOT buying what you are selling"

encourages voters to tell the GOP

[Kdillard]

17. Hitting it put of the park.

[Clio the Leo]

15. "Even though Patty is small, and I'm skinny, we're tough, and we're pushing that car!" nt

[Clio the Leo]

16. "FINALLY we get this car up on the road..." (HUGE applause) nt

[Clio the Leo]

18. "The GOP wants the keys to car back!" Crowd: "BOOOOOOO!!!!" nt

[jenmito]

25. He left out the slurpy at the last to rallies...

but he added that the Repubs. left the car once they drove it into the ditch so he and Patty Murray and other Dems. went down there to push it out.

[Clio the Leo]

27. I love how the stories evolve...

.... but I also wonder if there's some kind of copyright issue.

[jenmito]

45. So do I...

and I wondered the same thing. But he also left out his "latte" that he added once or twice.

[RandomThoughts]

20. On the road again.

Side notes, response to 25 thread :)

A favorite saying of Faith in a TV show I saw once.

[Clio the Leo]

23. "I AM my brother's keeper! I AM my sisters keeper!" never gets old! nt

[Clio the Leo]

24. INCLUDING the Muslims!!!! (my words, not his)

Suck on THAT Juan and Sarah!!!!

[WI_DEM]

29. Is it a big crowd?

[Clio the Leo]

32. I haven't seen any estimates but...

.... it's in the Husky's basketball arena .... so the size isn't going to be as big as the recent outdoor ones. I have heard the crowd referred to (by WH press pool) as "overflow" though.

[Clio the Leo]

30. I have NO memory of Bono on election day .... none. nt

[Clio the Leo]

34. "Dont LET 'em tell ya change isn't possible! Dont LET 'em get ya down!" nt

[Clio the Leo]

35. "We will end DADT"..

..... no date given. :)

[jenmito]

36. "That's why we will end Don't Ask Don't Tell!" n/t

[Clio the Leo]

38. that man is starting to make me like this silly hillbilly song...

.... it's got a catch tune I guess. "Only in America"

[jenmito]

42. Same here...

I always notice the line about "or he might be president..."

[Clio the Leo]

39. Poor "Bob"....

... no one ever wants to shake HIS hand! :)

[jenmito]

44. You mean...

"Barack Obama's Bodyguard"? :D

[Clio the Leo]

46. lol yep. nt

[gateley]

50. I think if you went to shake Bob's hand, you'd find yourself on your back staring at the sky. nt

[Clio the Leo]

54. lol yep ....

.... Mrs. Bush (Sr.) came to my HS when she was first lady .... we tried our best to "flirt" with the Secret Service guys ... wasn't happenin.

[gateley]

58. Ha! Probably like trying to get the Buckingham Palace Guards to smile! Even

Lucy and Ethel couldn't do it!

[Clio the Leo]

40. lol @ Jerry Brown....

the feed of the President's rally was immediately replaced by a feed from his when it was over and he said "now when we get there, THAT's when our problems being!"

truth

[gateley]

47. Damn! I'm 20 minutes away and I missed it! Damn MSNBC - they suck me in!

I'll read thru to get the gist -

I really should have paid attention to his schedule and gotten my ass down to see him. I'm such a slacker. Thanks for this and nice job on the stars, jenmito!!

[jenmito]

56. I found video of it!:

http://www.nwcn.com/video/featured-videos/Pres-Obama-rally-at-University-of-Washington-105485933.html

Thanks for the compliment on the stars. That's why I went out of my way to find video of it for you. :D

[gateley]

57. Thank you! And in case Clio doesn't get the manual to you in time, it's

THREE stars for Joe, NOT two! Must have been a typo. :7 :hi:

I can hardly wait to watch this!! :bounce:

[jenmito]

59. My pleasure...
