A great example of the wacko extremist Secular Progressive media attempting to justify the hatred that they spew today.
There was absolutely no correlation between a tall lanky black man (who was dressed as Julius Ceaser!) and President Obama! Start trying to expand your sources of news and information Brine! (And I hope your trip to Florida was a good one! I wish you would have let me know you were coming down! Hell, I'd have taken ya to a place with saw dust floors, cold draft beer, the most beautiful vistas you've ever seen on the (East Coast) intercoastal waterway, and a place that Florida Crackers don't tell the tourists about!)
