Tea Bag Birther on Barrett Jackson auction.
The collector car auction on Speed Channel is in Palm Beach Florida this week, and they were just auctioning off a charity car. Personally, I think the company does this for tax relief, and often paint up a car in patriotic colors and raise money for America's favorite soft spot, the troops. The price goes through the roof as draft dodging multi-millionaire bidders step up to do their part.
The car just on, autographed by hundreds of soldiers and their families, raised nearly a million dollars for "Wounded Wariors Family Support" (Not the Wounded Warrior Project). Before the bidding began, they threw the mike to organization chairman Col John Folsom, a veteran of the Iraq War.
He told the crowd that "people ask if the president's name is on the car". After a pregnant pause worthy of amatuer night at Hilarities, he added: "but a lot of Americans are". Predictably, he slayed the convention of 1%ers who gave a broad smattering of standing Ovation and laughter.
Apparently, the colonel prefers to help Republican veterans who were injured overseas.
