1/2 Million Homeless Scarecrows in Denver by Convention

In an effort to remove the unsightly liberal trash from the liberal convention the democrats are giving Denver's homeless free movie tickets, instructing soup kitchens to have longer hours and donating big screen tvs for same. The purpose is to keep liberal street trash away from the convention and away from the news cameras. The "streeters" don't seem too enthused with the free movie tickets, except for resale value. My sources tell me homeless fans from "sea to shinning sea" are wearing out their sneakers on their way to Denver. The panhandling dream of a lifetime what with the liberal Messiah being in town and all.

convention. Reports are that the Republicans initial surprise at not finding any colored faces in Minneapolis and its environs, to put on display, have been compounded by their inablility to fill their quota following a nationwide search. So...they're having to make do. One clever Republican operative has suggested that they could play a little game with their audience, and perhaps rouse them out of their anticipated torpor. They're going to suggest to their Metamucalites, that the play "connect the liver spots" with the shoe polish!

The freakin' politicians should go out amongst the homeless and see how many of them are veterans who are forced to live on the streets and how many are homeless because of job loss and foreclosure in thie great economy. They need a rude awakening, the politicos do.
