PSALM 2009 - 2012
FIRST BOOK OF DEMOCRAT
OBAMA IS A SHEPHERD,
I SHALL NOT WANT.
HE LEADETH ME BESIDE STILL FACTORIES.
HE RESTORETH MY FAITH IN THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.
HE GUIDETH ME IN THE PATH OF UNEMPLOYMENT.
YEA, THOUGH I WALK THROUGH THE VALLEY OF THE BREAD LINE,
I SHALL NOT GO HUNGRY.
OBAMA HAS ANOINTED MY INCOME WITH TAXES,
MY EXPENSES RUNNETH OVER MY INCOME,
SURELY, POVERTY AND HARD LIVING WILL FOLLOW ME ALL THE DAYS OF MY LIFE.
THE DEMOCRATS AND I WILL LIVE FOREVER
IN A RENTED HOME.
BUT I AM GLAD I AM AN AMERICAN,
I AM GLAD THAT I AM FREE.
BUT I WISH I WAS A DOG
AND OBAMA WAS A TREE.

If 2 million is true, that's about 1 for every 150 people in the US. I heard 1 million, that's 1 in 300. I live in a little town of 6,000, we're conservative, (not all of us) but I'd bet close to 20 people went to the Inauguration. It's over 1000 miles. Only 500,000 went to Woodstock in 69.
I know Republicans who traveled to this.

Hmmm.... what was going on on Tuesday that multiple state emloyees wouldnt show up to work (after already having MLK Day off)????

I would have started in with the sign language, and said, that's okay, I'll just take a deaf officer then please, I'm kinda in a hurry!
See what I did there?

PP642: Excuse me ma'am, just how many people work at the Ramsey County Courthouse?
Gov't Ma'am: Oh, I'd say about half.

Yeah. One day I was at the Hennepin County Gov'ment center and as I walked up to the desk, lady says:
"Sorry sir, I'm going on lunch break" Puts the sign up.
She then sits there for around 20 minutes chatting on Instant Messages.
I figure, okay, this is how she spends lunch.
Time goes up and she starts to walk away and says to myself and four others waiting:
"I'll be back in 30 after my lunch break"
Either she gets an hour lunch break or she was screwing the people around.
Still there were multiple people waiting for information!
