This is pretty funny. Looks almost just like the video that was posted 2-3 weeks ago.

Ahhhhh....the good old days of the campaign complete with accusations of death threats, racial slurs and fainting supporters.

This is an old routine from our days under Governor Sebelius. The RNC needs footage of the fainter as he/she is carried out of the hall. You will be amazed as the instant recovery once the doors swing shut. I’ve seen it.

It is hilarious how this “just happens”; just like James Brown fainting during all his performances (at least it worked for JB).

It would seem our resident photo-shop expert could super impose a fainter on one of the teleprompter screens much like a heads up display in a fighter aircraft....

I’m beginning to believe that Obama’s advance crew has a guy that travels to all the events and “faints” at a pre-arranged point in the speech. He’s had a full time job the past three years.

This "fainting" stuff is getting old.

Fainting Before the One Again? Rush Limbaugh ^ | 03/16/10 | Rush Limbaugh

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: This is Amanda in Ironton, Ohio. Great to have you on the EIB Network. Hello.

CALLER: Hey, Rush. How are you today?

RUSH: Very well. Thank you.

CALLER: Well, I was watching C-SPAN yesterday, our anointed one was in Cleveland, and I'm from Ohio, and that was not a fainting spell that the guy was having there. What he was doing, this is exactly what happened, he said, "Get that guy a medic, he needs a medic. I think that guy needs a medic," and the C-SPAN cameras panned over and there's four to six cops dragging this guy out of there. And so they pan back to Obama. And I heard this lady shout out "how dare you" and then he went on with his, you know, same old, same old.

RUSH: You mean a woman shouted at Obama "how dare you," meaning how dare you lie about this? CALLER: I think it was how dare you stifle this man's freedom of speech because you have a right to not agree with Obama.

RUSH: Oh. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. So the guy didn't faint?

CALLER: No! He was being drug off by four to six cops, and him saying that he needed a medic, that was a lie, among many that day. That basically telling the cops to drag that guy out of there, he was disrupting his lie fest, I guess.

Gee do they give out lottery tickets at these events to find who will faint this time? I don’t get why anyone would faint over a man who looks like he does?
