Crank up the applause machine!

the president employed a pre-recorded applause track to drown out the booing at a cards game in st. louis the other day, i hope they have good loud speakers on that machine. cause the booing is going to get louder every day.

be sure to visit 'REDEFEATBUSH.COM' where this cartoon is located.

1. Is this true?

I never heard that. St. Louis is my team baby, rams, cardinals, blue notes. I would hate to hear that bush messed with the fans.

3. Yep, the various local...

...GOP bootlickers were there, and they piped in applause to drown out the boos and jeers...

4. It was discussed on the O'Franken Factor...

I guess Bush's motorcade prevented many fans from entering the ballpark and also caused traffic snarls. This enraged the crowd in St. Louis and the crowd subsequently booed Chimpy. To cover the boos, canned applause was used to cover up the boos.
