Ahhhh! The smell of Ann Arbor at Election Time...... 
 Advertisements [?]I stayed overnight with friends in Ann Arbor after attending the Michael Moore "Slacker Uprising" premiere yesterday.....

This morning, I pulled into the Whole Foods lot (to get an overpriced but delicious danish) behind a car with a "Grammas for Obama" bumper sticker.

In line, many people had their canvass shopping bags, a plurality of which had Obama '08 stickers or buttons affixed to them.

I then drove back down Washtenaw Ave. toward downtown Ann Arbor, past frat and sorority houses adorned with Obama posters and placards. (Yes, even the Omigod! crowd is in the right political frame of mind.)

I parked at a meter down Washington St., and walked past several restaurants and shops that unapologetically displayed Obama signs in the windows.

And then I walked over toward Borders, passing an Obama supporters rally in a park at Liberty and Division.

Nothing remotely resembling anything pro-Republican to be seen.

Gotta love the smell of a leftist burg at election time!

In Ohio, for many years the directions to Ann Arbor have been to go north until you smell it, then west until you step in it.

If the magnificent leadership that the democrat congress has been demonstrating goes on to a The Obama presidency then those leftist will be waiting in line for potatoes with their canvas bags only to find out that the state runs store is out of potatoes.  I really wish that all could have experienced the grand USSR first hand in the 80s like I did.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Who is this DUmmie trying to kid?  No doubt all of us who went to college remember frat and sorority houses adorned with posters, but they never had anything even remotely to do with something political, exception being if you consider hard partying to be political.

I suspect the marmalade primitive was doing a stretchy here.

It's one of their favorite ballet faux pases or something.
