Pictures of the line of people in Kansas who waited all night to get tickets to see Obama
Edited on Sun Dec-04-11 04:07 PM by proud2BlibKansan
He's coming to Osawatomie, KS on Tuesday. There were 400 tickets available but several people I talked to who were in line said there were way more than 400 people there and most were there all night. Temps in the 20s last night.

16. I'm from Kansas; I know Kansas; that's not Kansas
There's a gentle sloping in the land in both pictures, and the skies are suspiciously clear of tornadoes.

27. Beautiful


Sadly, the Republicans are too dense to realize they have vastly overplayed their hand.

They were able to bluff the public for a long time, with the help of the 1% Media.

But they've now shown all their cards, and they're all duds.

Not that we musn't keep fighting their evil schemes, only saying that the American public (cept for the racist and/or sociopathic backwash) are no longer fooled by the R's con games and cheating ways.

Except in DC where they think they are all aces.... even by the Dems.

DC is on another planet though.
