Dear Soon-to-be-President Obama

[Condem]

What are you doing on the Fourth of July? We would like to cordially invite you to Eastern Iowa - where the corn is not quite knee high to an elephant's eye. Oh - but we're trying. I understand you wouldn't want your presence here to seem like a photo opportunity - and yet - we're here, we're in business, we're helping ourselves. Now - wouldn't you like to come out and give your supporters a pep talk? Many people have lost everything, but our spirits our high. We welcome you with open arms to come see how beautiful and generous Americans can be when we help each other. These same kind souls will be here to help you in November.

Do come see us! Condem and happyiowan will be there to greet you.

1. I would love to see him go to Iowa for the Fourth --

what an excellent idea.

I hope he RSVPs. :7

4. You never know.

I think Obama appreciates Iowa, oh, just a tad.

2. So what's on the grill? Let's talk Fourth priorities.

Hey, maybe all the rest of us on DU could show up.

[Condem]

3. Hey!

He wouldn't need a stage! His visit would coincide with the Iowa City Jazz Festival. Food out the ass, faygo! PORK. It would be a must to stop in Cedar Rapids. So much damage there. But what attitudes.
