And yet BHO still won Colorado in 2008.

[unkus]

Yep.

[BIGLOOK]

Most likely a fly over on the way to a California fund raiser. Just a publicity stunt but it’ll be disruptive nonetheless.

[MtnClimber]

Think Dear Leader has the strength to start a chain saw or the ability to have water hit him without melting? He won’t be helping.

[TribalPrincess2U]

You got that right. He can’t appear uninterested.
What’s he gonna do, spit on it? Blame Bush?

These fires would be more controllable if 0blaba worked
on getting the EPA out of the forest.

You know, actually did something right.

[Breto]

Hickenlooper is a total bozo he hasn’t even requested a declaration of a disaster area for the state and he thinks Obama is so cool the moment he sets food on Colorado ground .... poof... the fires will all go out.....

[Red Steel]

bho should have been here last night and flown over the fire with the governor. he would have seen what his afterlife residence is going to look like.

LoL.

with the plane carrying a banner requesting money and a number to call with credit card ready.

“This is a very conservative area.”

I grew up in this area and it was a conservative right to work state. Then the liberals, environmentalist, hippies and wacos moved in and took over. The state is now very liberal in the urban areas and will go Obama in November.

[Jay Redhawk]

Or a fund raiser with the Hollyweird elite in Vail or Aspen.

[unkus]

We’ll see but I’m afraid you’re probably right.

I’m in S W Colo. (La Plata County) and 0bama is losing ground here.

[I_Publius]

Same thing has been happening to Texas over the past 15 years or so. This also used to be a great state, but now is getting close to a take over by the Progressives, hippies (Austin, TX), queers (Dallas, Houston, Austin), feminists, marixist supporters, etc, etc, etc....

[ThunderSleeps]

So unless he flies into Denver and caravans down he and his photo-op will negatively impact the firefighting effort. Of course, even if he does that it probably impacts the High Park fire. Thanks for nothing hussein, stay the {expletive} away.

[kalee]

Great, everywhere he goes disaster follows. What happens when he visits a disaster already happening?

[Red Steel]

Obama takes the advice from his former tutu wearing WH Chief of Staff:

Rahm Emanuel, "You never want a serious crisis to go to waste"

"DENVER — President Barack Obama will fly to Colorado Springs Friday to tour the scene of the Waldo Canyon Fire, which continues to ravage homes and forest on the edge of Colorado’s second most populous city.

The President called Gov. John Hickenlooper and Colorado Springs Mayor Steve Bach on Friday to be updated on the fires burning across the state and to inform them of his plan to visit the fire lines Friday, the White House confirmed.

“The President reiterated his administration’s focus, through the US Forest Service as well as the Department of Interior and FEMA, on continuing to bring all resources to bear to assist local responders in Colorado and a number of Western States currently being impacted by fires,” according to the White House...."

Lost your house in the Waldo Canyon Fire? Instead of rebuilding your dreary old shack, do something that will go a little further: donate the money you were planning to use for rebuilding to Obama for America. We'll provide you with Section 8 housing and we're running a special on Food Stamps this week, so you don't have to concern yourself about food or shelter.

[DuncanWaring]

Some men just want to watch the world burn.

[DuncanWaring]

Obviously you’ve never lit a fart.

[Irish Eyes]

While nobama “visits”, will they ground all planes (including firefighting planes) to clear aitrspace for the King?

According to my friend who is an air traffic controller in San Jose - yes

Damn is there no end to this?
