If not, they will be ridiculed by the MSM for not showing support and sympathy for the victims and their democrat colleague. With the proper directing of camera angles and a little cut and paste of last year's stand and clap love-fest edited in here and there, Americans will think the entire body gave him a standing ovation for the course of the speech and never sat down once. <br /><br />The symbolism there for the American viewing audience - Everybody likes him.Bobohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14359693832334079931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8993108951931633758.post-7888393882885764642011-01-15T10:31:58.389-06:002011-01-15T10:31:58.389-06:00Stilton and Earl:

And I think that the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court has already announced that he has better things to do than be attacked and lied about by Mr. Obama.<br /><br /><i>Pete(Detroit)</i>- Or how about a really substantive phrase like "Together We Thrive," which wasn't created for the Tucson memorial, but actually came from Obama's "Organizing for America" website.

I don't know if both sides have agreed to do this yet, but I can't help but agree with Rush that the dems would probably want to do this to disguise how much their cymbals (I mean numbers) have diminished since the November elections. I also wonder how many conservative Supreme Court Justices will show up considering last year's public condemnation from the alleged Healer-in-Chief. <br />EarlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8993108951931633758.post-76906474195484864372011-01-15T05:54:25.474-06:002011-01-15T05:54:25.474-06:00Bwahaha!
