WTF?  Why was there a need to give it some name? Wasn't calling it a memorial service good enough? I'm surprised that Obama doesn't have an opening band like he did at so many of his campaign rallies.

Did you all see this...?
http://voices.washingtonpost.com/44/2011/01/what-president-obama-should-sa.html

What President Obama should say
Quote
President Obama is scheduled to speak in Arizona Wednesday evening. The speech will come four days after a gunman, identified by police as Jared Lee Loughner, killed six people and wounded 14 during a shooting rampage in front of a Tucson supermarket. Among the dead: a nine-year old girl who aspired to enter politics and a federal judge. Among the wounded: Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.), the apparent target.

Analysts and commentators around the web are giving the president advice regarding what he should (and should not) say to the American people. We've collected analysis that we have found to be interesting (with a special nod to the Post's Chris Cillizza), but professional analysts don't own the discussion.
Emphasis mine. ANYONE ELSE HEAR SHE WANTED TO ENTER POLITICS?

I'm predicting failure for ObeyWon tonight.  I've seen enough of his speeches. I have yet to see any evidence of his ability to show empathy or even sympathy for people. The only emotion I've seen him demonstrate is anger. That is not what is needed.

Is it a memorial or an Obama rally? Souvenir t-shirts emblazoned with the logo for the 'Together We Thrive' gathering at the University of Arizona were placed on chairs at the arena ahead of the memorial.

It's odd for a memorial to a mass murder to have a logo, but it's crass to hand out souvenir t-shirts.

Attend a memorial service, get a free t-shirt!

Does anyone else think this is crass and cheap?

How long after the service will they wait until they issue a presser triumphantly RE-announcing they are proceeding with their lawsuit against AZ and investigation of Sheriff Arpaio?

Thist is not about the dead, but the political goals of the living. Formal dress implies reverence to the dead. Informal dress implies that we have moved passed the dead to our normal lives.The goal is to make this the first political rally of 2011 for the Mocha Messiah.

Will that be before or after he visits the concession stands, which are now open, by the way. Not kidding.

The democrat fund-raiser who has a sweatshop filled with illegals making $2.15/hour.

BTW - maybe I'm paranoid but why is Jan Brewer the only name on the list with a party affiliation listed?

I thought it was supposed to be a memorial, but each time I flipped over I saw alot of whooping and hollering. I guess The One used it as a political rally.
