Record Obama Crowd, the Size of a City By Matthew Mosk
PORTLAND, Ore. -- Sen. Barack Obama has seen his share of large crowds over the last 15 months, but his campaign said they have not approached the numbers gathered along the waterfront here right now.
The campaign, citing figures from Duane Bray, battalion chief of Portland Fire & Rescue, estimated that 75,000 people are watching him speak.
The scene suggests this is not an exaggeration. The sea of heads stretches for half a mile along the grassy embankment, while others watch from kayaks and power boats bobbing on the Willamette River. More hug the rails of the steel bridge that stretches across the water and crowds are even watching from jetties on the opposite shore.

More people showed up to hear Rush Limbaugh at Dan’s Bake Sale...so what?
Since it’s Portland, imagine the smell. Bare feet. Dreads. Ugh.
Money.
Cult.
Most of the MSM.
Leftist commie pinko.
Any questions?
Kind of like one of Hitler’s early rallies stirring up the masses. Both are (or were) so charismatic don’t ya know and both are just as destructive.
Portland is Seattle with better public transportation and a higher unemployment rate.
The Anti-Christ has arrived? Oregon, at one time, was highly conservative. I lived there years ago for 18 years. Mostly Californians now....go figure.

The Obama rally, as seen on TV (above) 
I'm not quite ready to go sit in the corner and sulk just yet.
Portland is the arm pit of the NW..Seattle the Ahole....period!
Remeber that is just one city.
America is a big place and there are alot of us ‘typical white people’ out there ready to vote against this nut.
If he wins I think all red states should secede from the union. Although that would be a mess where I live in the deep south ha!
Oh what a mess. If they don’t get they obammy theys gonna be mad

Louis Farrakhan, at the annual Saviours' Day celebration in Chicago, Feb. 25, 2008: "This young man is the hope of the entire world that America will change and be made better"..."If you look at Barack Obama's audiences and look at the effect of his words, those people are being transformed."

Louis Farrakhan, at the Millions More Movement rally in DC, Oct 15, 2005: "...what Mao Tse Tung did was, he went to the cultural community, and they [Farrakhan spreads his arms beneficently] accepted his idea."..."Mao Tse Tung ... had a billion people whose lives he had to transform."..."the idea of Mao Tse Tung became the idea of a billion people, and China became a world power on the base of the culture and the arts community. If we had a ministry of art and culture in every city we'd create this movement [in the U.S.]."

This is the Washington Post; they have no desire but to support and report on those they back.
They believe Obama is their answer to taking back the Oval Office, and to be honest, unless McCain does something earth shattering soon, other than show his liberal side, Obama will be the next president of the United States.
Oh Joy, a true Socialist in office because the GOP, Conservatives, and other to the right could not agree. Now we have this that will have to be cleaned up after four years.
Four Years of Obama and a Democrat Congress, God help America.
Scary stuff.
McCain got 40 at the local hospice center. They were a captive audience.
I don't think so. I know people who are die-hard Democrats who will not vote for Obama no matter what! They will either stay home or vote for McCain (not easy for several people who spent the night in the Lincoln bedroom during the Clinton's reign of terror).
Hey guys those are really cute comments about how if all those Americans were dead it wouldn’t matter, comparing Obama to Hitler because he is widly popular and calling him a muslim but how about some real ideas on how to beat this guy?
This isn’t freaking funny and we mock his draw at our own peril.
Goegeous day here in Portland, much better things to do than listen to this guy.
I don’t think americans will accept Obama. I really don’t.
If Obama gets elected I hope there is a deep and visible split in the country that will take away any of OBama’s power.
It is almost worth going to war over. That is, if enough people still care about the US.
...and the anti-christ gathers his minions.
It’s sunny in Portland today....and Obama’s hanging out where most Portlanders go when they are desperate for sun....such a joke. Y’all should go leave comments at the article.....you really need to!!!!
Portland has many many moonbat libs so it’s not surprising that a lot of them turn out for the most liberal candidate. Portland is not representative of the country.
‘American Ummah’
Glad I am not one of the sheep hive-minds in that sea of fools.
Disgusting.
Being an apostate Muslim in the eyes of Muslims worldwide, the Shiites have much to gain by challenging his reconversion as the ‘Mahdi’...Ahmadi-Nejad has lain the groundwork.
A lot of the lurkers in the Levin lounge listen to Portland’s KPAM on the net for Mark’s show. Following that show, a conservative lady, Victoria Taft, has the airwaves for a couple of hours. She literally is a voice in the wilderness, fighting the liberal, leftwing city hall and crazy ideas like “Fareless Square” which allows all the homeless to ride light rail for free. The city is a mecca for runaways, drug addicts, “homeless”, bums and other slackers. I’ve ridden the MAX during one of my visits and saw panhandlers hassling passengers. A couple of recent shootings on the trams have woken the city up that it must attack that part of the problem, at least.
Obama's havin a big ol' party in Portland, eh?
Why am I not impressed, or even surprised?
That was exactly my thought:
Thank God Hillary has been cleaning his clock lately - otherwise you'd think that everyone had drunk the Kool-Aid.

Yeah, so they supported an oppressive dictator, like the Repubs and Democrats haven't? The CP is still around, has apologized for that whole Stalin thing, and has a quickly growing youth section.

Even if it is Portland, OR,
there are a LOT of people at that rally for this Obama guy.
This worrisome.
Wow! It took 7 whole replies to get to the “Hitler” reference.
Why don't we seize the opportunity provided by the MSM's deification of Obama to permanently de-claw the IRS?
This post (<-click), while addressing taxes, helps to explain why government "leaders" like Obama are actually in contempt of the Constitution that they have sworn to defend, foolishly following in the footsteps of FDR's dirty federal spending politics. In fact, the article referenced below shows that Obama is the #1 federal spending proposer in the Senate for '08; Clinton is #2.
Obama, a big-shot federal spenderThe people need to reconnect with the Founder's division of federal and state government powers. The people then need to wise up to the major problem that the federal government is not operating within the restraints of the federal Constitution, particularly where constitutionally unauthorized federal spending is concerned.
The bottom line is that the people need to send big-shot, Constitution-ignoring federal spenders like Obama home as opposed to trying to send people like him to the Oval Office. The people need to get in the faces of the feds, demanding a stop to constitutionally unauthorized federal spending while appropriately lowering federal taxes - or get out of DC.
Last year ICE raided a food processing plant in Portland, they arrested over 150 illegals and the Mayor (former police chief of Portland) was outraged. Just a little insight into there government.
Ought to plaster this all over lib political website in Oregon:
View this and then come back and tell me you want Baraq Hussein Mohammed Obama for your president:
http://www.frugalsites.net/911/attack/
He is supported by the same kind of terrorist who did this.
Elect him and you’ll get what you deserve.

"All of you young airheads, pinkos, fuzzbumpers, socialists, political morons, latte drinkers, trannys, elevated thinkers, child molesters, bed sniffers and Muslim racists...I welcome you!"
That’s about the size of it.
Media manipulation.
Is it any wonder Hitler was elected by the ignorant sheeple?
Sheesh!
