I'm off to get in line for Obama's Iowa City speech!
I'm taking my 9-year old along - he's jazzed!

I'm hoping to give a report with photos after the event.

As an aside, a coworker said the crazies were out already when she was driving in to work: a group along a busy thoroughfare with a big banner reading "ObamaNation" and lovely graphic photos of aborted fetuses. :eyes:

1. I will expect to see a full report posted here when you return...
pics and all! And if you tell a teabagger off, you get extra points. :)

3. I'm back from the speech - it was fun!
It was fun - the crowd was upbeat and positive - lots of cheering!

Here's my other post, with photos:

Sadly, I didn't tell a teabagger off - they never came close enough. LOL!

5. Something about the Public Option
...so he was actually my kind of guy. LOL
I just don't like the rudeness of heckling.
Obama said the bill wasn't perfect and wouldn't please everyone, but it is a sensible bill, or something like that.
