Chamber director meets Obama Published 4:54pm Monday, August 15, 2011 Email Comments
CANNON FALLS — Albert Lea-Freeborn County Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Randy Kehr got the rare chance Monday to shake hands with the president and introduce himself prior to the town-hall meeting.
Kehr said he was invited by 1st District Congressman Tim Walz to meet briefly with President Barack Obama prior to the start of the event, along with some other state representatives, the mayor of Cannon Falls, officials from the University of Minnesota and the United States Department of Agriculture.
The local chamber director described the president as a “personable man,” who asked people their names as they shook hands.
Kehr called the meeting a “once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for him” and said the president’s visit was “a great day for southern Minnesota.”
He was seated to the left of Obama during the event in reserved seating.
“We’ve been talking here in Minnesota about the need for compromise — he echoed that on a national level,” Kehr said. “Hopefully people will get the message that compromise is good — it’s not a dirty word.”

I'm amused by these "Town Hall meetings". They are less about "gathering information" and more about "photo opportunities." Did anybody hear ANYTHING critical of "The Messiah"--despite his high unfavorability ratings?
Would you guess that the deck was stacked?

Shouldn't you be hanging out at WND with the rest of the unhinged right wing loons?
Maybe the mainstream media was just too busy reporting on the republitards having the lowest approval rating in 20years? These days more people approve of the teabaggers than you republitards.

Leave it to Libbie to deflect the issue.
I merely mentioned that the deck was stacked--that far from being a "Town Hall Meeting" where Obummer would LEARN that the American voters DON'T like his policies--the reality was that it was only a campaign appearance. Another lie from the guy that makes Bill Clinton look like a paragon of truth!
True to liberal fashion, Libbie goes into high speed wobble--unable to defend the record of his President, he turns instead to attack mode.

Well, Libbie, is it NOT true that the Obamunists stacked the deck with his "Town Hall Meeting"?

You must have been reading the DAILY KOS/SEIU poll.
Time to bring you back to reality. If the Repubs were REALLY at a 20 year low, they wouldn't have waxed the Donks so badly in the election held just 9 months ago.
If the Repubs were REALLY that low, Obambi wouldn't have such horrible poll numbers.
If the Repubs were REALLY that low, Oblahblah wouldn't be 5 points behind "generic republican" today nullMy Webpage
And the Repub lead is INCREASING--see chart at the right. So much for "lowest in 20 years".
If Repubs were REALLY that low, "Generic Repubs" wouldn't be 12 points ahead of "Generic Donks" on a Congressional ballot with voters. My Webpage
Note again that the lead is INCREASING.
REALLY, Libbie--I know it HAS TO HURT to have your ideas rejected so badly--but you need to get out more and read something besides Daily Kos!

Is it the republicans that have the lowest approval rating? or Congress? At last count there were 242 Republicans to 193 Dems in the House and 51 Dems to 47 Republicans in the Senate! You are right about the Tea Party! and you guys all thought they were weak... These days more people approve of the [teabaggers than you republictards]...Who do you think make up the Tea Party?

Rules for Power Tactics: 1. Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have. 2. Never go outside the experience of your people. 3. Whenever possible, go outside of the experience of the enemy. 4. Make the enemy live up to their own book of rules. 5. Ridicule is man's most potent weapon. 6. A good tactic is one that your people enjoy. 7. A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag. 8. Keep the pressure on with different tactics and actions, and utilize all events of the period for your purpose. 9. The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself. 10. The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition. 11. If you push a negative hard and deep enough, it will break through into its counterside. 12. The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative. 13. Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.
It explains a lot about the Far Left in general--about the current occupant of the White House (when he's not on vacation or playing golf) and our own Libbie.
"Don't try to defend your own actions or inactions--BLAME BUSH--BLAME THE REPUBLICANS, BLAME THE TEA PARTY, BLAME THE JAPANESE TSUNAMI."
And they wonder why only the Far Left buys into their "hopey-changy" rhetoric any more?
