Hello
Many photos an couple of videos under the jump.
Hang in there, Lorikeet. I hope this will make you feel a little better today. I promise to continue doing this for you whenever i can. Hugs.
Enjoy.
First, the entire Townhall in Henderson, NV, earlier today. Almost every subject, from flossing to tourism to explaining what's Global Warming really means, slowly and clearly, so maybe even the ignorant teabaggers can understand.
Lively crowd and a very entertaining event. I'm always amazed by how good-spirited are Obama's townhalls, how nice and friendly and hopeful everybody is, comparing to all the anger and nastiness on every Right-Wing event.
