Scary Palin fish lady - bwa ha ha!

Yesterday, my friends Glen and Cliff and I attended a political rally at Window on the Bay in Monterey, California. It was a combined effort between the local Democratic Club and No on 8. The Obama rally began at 11 a.m. and overlapped with a No on 8 rally that began at 1 p.m.

Most of the people came early and stayed for both events -- which really ended up being one big rally for both Obama and No on 8. Some Obama folks were holding No on 8 signs and vice versa.

The event was an educational experience for me. I have attended several No on 8 rallies. This was my first Obama rally. What shocked me was the overt racism and aggressive tactics used by the Republicans who showed up to counter demonstrate.

Way to get the message there.  By they way.  Daylight is bright, and night is dark.  What a maroon.
