Republican Voters Ejected From...

...Republican political rally? Call me confused (italics mine):

"When I started talking to them, it kind of became clear that they were kind of just telling people to leave that they thought maybe would be disruptive, but based on what? Based on how they looked," Elborno said. "It was pretty much all young people, the college demographic."

Elborno said even McCain supporters were among those being asked to leave.

"I saw a couple that had been escorted out and they were confused as well, and the girl was crying, so I said 'Why are you crying? and she said 'I already voted for McCain, I'm a Republican, and they said we had to leave because we didn't look right,'" Elborno said. "They were handpicking these people and they had nothing to go off of, besides the way the people looked."

That's what you get for voting Republican? Nice.

They can cry me a goddamned river, because if they'd been paying any attention, they'd know damned well that this is what they were voting for. Idiots.

This just shows how the bachmannites have great judgement as to who is unamerican and who's not.

You reap what you sow. You sow the seeds of prejudice, pre- judging people, this is your fruit.

If I remember correctly, George Bush's people kept people out of his public policy road show on Social Security. McCain claimed that he was "Not George Bush." So far he has been doing all he can to emulate George Bush.

Don't know why you're surprised about this. All political events, by both parties, are becoming increasingly stage managed. It's part of pandering to the lazy media.
