Obama Visiting Dallas Today to Raise Campaign Cash ( $10,000 to $100,000 Din Din Tickets)
Dallas News ^ | 8/9/2010 | Dallas News

WASHINGTON – Texas has mainly provided a thorn in Barack Obama's side. The governor taunts him. The senators defy him. He lost the state by nearly 1 million votes in 2008.

When the president lands today to raise campaign cash in Austin and Dallas, even the Democratic nominee for governor will make himself scarce.

Yet many Texas Democrats are thrilled. Some are encouraging Obama to take the party's Bush-bashing theme to a new level, by pressing the case against the former president's policies on his home turf.

The Kenyan comes to Texas with his begging bowl because it is the only place that still has a decent economy after his pathetic “stimulus” has left all the Democrat-run states in shambles.
Stupid Texas Dems are able to give money to this begger from D.C. because better, smarter people than they are have refused to swallow the Socialist kool-aid that CA and NY have been guzzling for decades.

As long as it is called the “White” House, he will stay away. Wonder what name he and his lovely wife would like to call it? Hmmm, not “Love Shack, oh I know, “Cordoba II”!

If there are any freepers in the heart of Texas who do not know about the Hands Off Texas Rally today, here are the particulars:

5:30 PM, on the grounds of the south side of Capitol .

Speakers include: Land Commissioner Jerry Patterson (a great guy!), Dr. Donna Campbell—a good conservative running against Lloyd Dogshitt for US representative, Lisa Fritsch, KLBJ radio host, and more.

Hope to se a lot of you there!

"Hope is on horizon -3010"

It's going to take 1000 years to recover from Obama?

“There’s a time to campaign, and a time to govern.” - Barack Obama

This ain’t the time to campaign, Barry.
