President Obama is in Phoenix!

He just came down the steps of Air Force One at Sky Harbor. Even though I'm at home watching on TV, it's exciting to know that he is here!

1. Heehee... .he's staying at the same resort tonight
that McCain will be at giving a fund raising dinner. Somehow I like the reminder to McCain that he's not the one who won!

3. hmmmm..... I wonder why McCain wouldn't be there?
Could it be because Pres Obama kicked his ass in the election?! I think that might be it! :rofl:

Ohhhh, I so hope this gets under McCain's skin. I depise him.

4. Same here
I despise that mean, sarcastic temperament of his. I do hope that he's stewing about it all. :thumbsup:

6. The photo on Page 1 of the Repulsive made me puke.
Why is Brewer trying to be all snuggly with my President? Hypocrit.

:puke:

7. I went even tho I didn't have a ticket.
There were hundreds of people there. Unfortunately alot of them were protestors...hypocrites complaining about Obama putting us into debt. Stuff like that.

But there were alot more Obama supporters.

It was a beautiful day, I'm glad I went even tho I didn't get to see him.

8. That's great that you went even without a ticket
Edited on Wed Feb-18-09 04:25 PM by DesertRat
Did you see the motorcade? I had to work otherwise I would have gone with a pro-Obama sign. :) The local media will probably just show the protesters. :eyes:

I just read that JD Hayworth was leading the anti-Obama chants on a loudspeaker. :puke:

9. I had my Obama/Biden sign and it was great because I went by myself and alot of people
started talking to me just because they knew I was a supporter :)

I heard the loud speaker - it was across the street. Leave it to JD to act like such a baby - but don't worry - there was NO way that Obama heard him. They had it roped out really well.
The motorcade did not drive right by the people, but we could still see it.

10. Thanks for the first hand report!
I still can't get over McCain and Kyl snubbing Obama while he was in town. It says a lot about their characters. I detest both of them!
