OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — A president so unpopular in Oklahoma that he failed to win a single county during the 2008 election will visit the Sooner State next week — including the oil hub Barack Obama spurned by rejecting a transcontinental pipeline earlier this year.

Cushing mayor Evert Rossiter says that, despite the president’s decision, he expects Obama will receive the “red carpet” treatment when he visits the oilfield community as part of a four-state tour on Wednesday and Thursday.

Before the Oklahoma primary, Obama had won all of the Democratic delegates awarded this year, national party officials said.

How un-democratic of them.

“There is precedent for what we’re doing here,” Robertson said. “It’s pretty straightforward.”

Yes there is precedent:

“Be sure to get a shot with me in front of some oil-thingies,” Obama will direct the network news crews covering the event in Cushing. He doesn’t need Oklahomans for this trip at all. But I do have to say I’m shocked he will come to our state at all, even briefly.

Terry won’t get any delegates in spite of the rules because he’s “not a bona fide democrat”.

That’s called the “No True Scotsman” argument, and it’s a logical fallacy. What would these same lawless creeps say if Romney was not allowed to get any votes because he’s “not a bona fide republican”?

The ironic part? They have more legal proof that Terry is actually a democrat than they have that Obama is even American, much less a natural-born US citizen. But their point is that they can do what they want - accept what isn’t proven, and reject what is proven... whatever is most handy for them.

Sickening. This nation is lawless.

77 Counties in Oklahoma.

77 Counties voted against Ubama in 2008 I am PROUD to say!

I live near Cushing. It is a nice town. Too bad the trash is blowing in with a political circus this week. Maybe we can have a tornado instead.
