Obama/Biden did their dog and pony show here in Dublin OH yesterday
evening. It is amazing how truely stupid the average American is. Less
than 30% of all eligible voters are registerd, yet they will go stand in
line for six or more hours to listen to a pair of politicians talk for
one hour about things they have absolutely no intention of doing.

I wonder how many of the attendees failed to realize that the cards they
were REQUIRED to fill out to gain admission were solely for the purpose
of monetizing a mailing list?

Then there was the yellow-card/pink-card thing.
If you contributed significant AMU's (note necessary aviation content),
you receive a yellow-card, didn't have to wait in line and were give a
seat adjacent to the stage set up in the middle of the field.

If you were given a pink-card, after you fill out the requisite
information card, you still had to stand in line and find a place to
stand once you passed the metal detector and TSA (the only local
organization with sufficient equipment that could be set up on-site on
short notice) screening.

Much ado about nothing.
