[Vision2020] 'Obama Tags' Called a Joke

I don't think most of these folks were joking. The "outraged roar" from the 
progressive lefty's was tough to make out. Most were too winded from long 
hours of angry chanting and marching to and fro with imprecatory placards 
and ducks concocted from soiled bedsheets.


How is Rammell's ill considered, off the cuff jape any more outrageous than 
what you just posted with plenty of time to consider what it was you wanted 
to convey? Are you REALLY ready to purchase a Minnick tag and go a hunting 
or was that "just a joke?"

I think you are on to something there, Keely.

People got all pushed out of shape when Rose Huskey referred to Idaho's
DINO (Democrat In Name Only), Walt Minnick, as a jackass.

Perhaps Rose would not have been so harshly criticised had she been
packing a gun and, instead of asking about Minnick's election potential in
2010, asked where to buy Walt Minick hunting tags.

I'd buy one.

Seeya at Farmers' Market, Moscow.
