This family in Colorado HAS to be Republican...

Edited on Thu Oct-15-09 01:52 PM by Drunken Irishman

Purposely sending their kid up in that balloon to interrupt the President's town hall.

HOW DARE THEY!

3. CNN/MSNBC/Whatever...

All were carrying the speech. Then it was interrupted by this news story about a boy who somehow got aboard his father's UFO and is now stuck 7,000 feet above the ground alone.

Six years old.

9. They dropped the President to follow a story

which really had no content. They covered it for over an hour and not till it ended did they speak to scientists who pretty much said the balloon was unlikely to have enough helium to lift a boy of his weigh. Not to mention they argued that the way the balloon looked as it flew may it very unlikely as well.

6. Thanks.

We all know the kid will be all right. Why? Because God doesn't kill six year olds.

10. He was almost certainly not in the balloon

They suspect he is hiding because he knows that he is in big trouble.

8. How dare you turn this into a sex thread.

;)

I do this when I'm nervous. It's my way of calming myself. I don't want to think of a boy dying.

11. They sound like Libertarians to me

What other kind of whacko would build some giant, and presumably unpermitted, balloon in their back yard?
