Enough elite behavior

How much is it going to take for Democrats to say enough elite behavior from Barack? A colonade has been set up at Invesco Field for the Temple of Obama. How arrogant is this guy anyway? Give me a war hero with his feet on the ground instead of a guy with a messiah complex. Be aware this is only the beginning if the tax man gets in the White House.

Not now

I believe the vision that Dr. Melody Smith has for the children in the school district of St. Joseph is wonderful. But I just received my gas bill and my level payment just went up $34. October my water/sewer bill is going to go up also. Groceries and gasoline prices — I just can’t take on any more. I just received a 3 percent raise this year and well, that’s gone with everything else going up. I didn’t see her turn down her raise. We just can’t afford anymore taxes. Maybe once the economy gets better, but not now. Think about it, Dr. Smith.

Stick to yourself

I have a revolutionary suggestion for all political candidates. Talk about themselves, their experiences and their country plans on the issues and quit trying to tell us voters all about the negatives of your opponent.

Barack’s no Greek god

I see the stage where Obama is going to make his speech. It looks like a Greek coliseum. Obama is not a Greek god. There is only one God, and that’s the God I worship. And I do not worship Barack Obama. He is not a god. And when people would get that through their heads maybe they won’t vote for him.

Start buying

I see several homes for sale in St. Joseph. It seems like a really super time for those who can to pick up some $50,000 or $60,000 or more homes for either rentals or for themselves. There’s so much to choose from in this town. It’s a great time for investment. We’re in much better shape in this town, and we have a lot to offer.

There’s one

Well I see in the morning paper where Ken Shearin is backing Sam Graves. I think that’s just great and wonderful. At least Sam will have one vote.

Wait and see

I’ve been watching all the conventions and the hoopla and that. I have a feeling that Barack Obama is going to feel sorry that he didn’t pick Hillary Clinton as the VP come November. All the big states are hollering and everything else. We’ll just have to see what happens in November.

Did the Democrats borrow the set from the Republics? Look eerily like the set used for G. WMD. Bush's acceptance speech in 2004.

OK, people. I have a question for ya. What are those colonades supposed to represent? This is a very easy answer. I will give you a hint. It isn't a temple. It isn't supposed to look like he is a god. It is similar to what both parties have used for years.

The set is supposed to represent the White House. I hope ya'all don't have to eat your words when McCain uses a similar stage.

People who think Obama is a god are dyslexic. Just reverse the letters and you are much closer.
