Hey Democrats! Come Out, come out, wherever you are!
By Ward Smythe | Thursday, October 13th, 2011 | PoliticsYour fearless leader is making another magical mystery bus tour to the Commonwealth. But apparently none of you want to be seen with him.
Heck Bob McDonnell even beats you there!
McDonnell to Obama: Come see the earthquake damage[Washington Examiner].
But one by one, Democrats are indicating they don’t want to be seen with the President.
First there was Sen. Phil Puckett, who has said ‘I don’t plan to support President Obama for re-election.’
Then Ward Armstrong tried to make us think he’s a conservative. As Norm Leahy wrote “In his most recent television ad, Armstrong says he’s not really like the President at all, what with being pro-life, pro-gun, anti-cap and trade and whatnot”
Last, but not least, even Obama’s cheerleader-in-chief, Tim (a.k.a. “Hinky Eyebrow”) Kaine won’t commit to supporting the President’s “jobs” bill.
Apparently Virginia Democrats are afraid someone will drop a house on them. And, sadly, they know that under the Obama Administration, FEMA won’t be there to help them out.
But, c’mon out Democrats. We dare ya.

Well, I am just too darn busy to attend. Maybe that is what the problem is, Democrats who support President Obama are too busy working to come out, come out wherever we are. And speaking of wherever we are, I’m right now in Missouri headed for Texas.
While on the road, I recently got into a conversation with a Republican after he tore into Obama. I asked him just which Republican candidate seeking their party’s nomination was better? I sought to strike in advance by stating he would probably say “All of them.” He struck back by stating “Not all of them, any of them” as if the difference was important. I just chuckled.
As a working class Democrat who is too busy and too far away to attend the rally, I will state then even during my absence Barack Obama probably has my support. That is unless Hillary Clinton decides to run against him in which case I will start screaming “It is high time for Hillary.”
Little David, sometimes we all get a little too busy to attend. But that’s not quite the same as candidates too busy to appear with their Commander in Chief.
But, you already knew that.
He also knows many many many Dems have a lot of time on their hands. Some because they like it that way and some because Obama Pelosi and Reid say that an unemployment check is the best stimulus and have worked hard to bring that about.
valentinus,
I didn’t realize that it was only Democrats who were in the unemployment line. You know, I really didn’t blame Dubyah Bush for the recession (I thought there was more then enough blame to be shared be all) but maybe I need to rethink that. Now that you have explained to me that it is only Democrats in the unemployment line, I am starting to sense a conspiracy or something. Why, before Dubyah Bush left office he conspired with Wall Street to throw all those Democrats out of work. Thanks for helping me come to this conclusion, I doubt anyone less astute then yourself could have convinced me that Dubyah Bush could be that diabolical.
