1. What, he missed?

[Jackpine Radical]

6. No horses around, I suppose.

[tabasco]

2. I thought that was an unalienable right in the USA.

Falls under "redress of grievances."

[icnorth]

12. To quote Robin Williams in

Mrs. Doubtfire. "A classic case of a drive by fruiting."

[cherokeeprogressive]

3. Hit a Police Officer in the face with a tomato > Go to jail.

I hope he gets to stew over this for a while.

[leftstreet]

5. oh you didn't

I hope he gets to stew over this for a while.

:rofl:

8. Talk about low hanging fruit... lol

[tabasco]

14. Jawohl!

Cops get paid for this shit.

Fuckin badasses can't even handle a little tomato juice.

[cherokeeprogressive]

30. Let me toss a baseball size tomato at you from the second floor balcony of a mall.

That's not exactly like throwing a tomato from the second floor of a house. Cops DO NOT get paid to have things thrown at them by someone making a poorly thought out political statement. Money says if YOU got hit in the face with a tomato you'd be after your pound of flesh in less time than it took to get the tomato juice out of your shirt.

23. DOH.

[MineralMan]

4. Oh, la, la! C'est une chose très amusant!

C'est pour rire!

Just in case Sarah's reading this: That's French dear. You wouldn't understand.

[Democrat 4 Ever]

10. Okay to go to President Obama's public events carrying guns

but a tomato is a big no-no in reichwing world. Wished they hadn't hit a policeman, his job is hard enough. But if I get a chance to attend a McChinless McConnell event I'm packing fruit. (Kidding Agent Mike - I like fruit too much to waste it on Kentucky's biggest embarrassment.)

[MineralMan]

13. All I can say is that I'm proud of Minnesota for producing one

person willing to step up and throw the tomato. I hope it was quite rotten and squishy. I feel bad for the cop with the tomato on his face, but the gesture is priceless. Rotten fruit for the rotten politician. It's all good.

[tanyev]

15. Nah, couldn't happen in Real America.

He must have been flown in by George Soros on a private jet just to cause a ruckus.



:sarcasm:

[tanyev]

16. Dupe.

[Fire_Medic_Dave]

22. The President was never in danger.

[Bolo Boffin]

7. That's just wrong, any way you slice it. n/t

[benld74]

9. No wonder Minnesota never made it to 09 playoff's - NO ARMS!!!

[Warpy]

11. Well, if you're going to get saucy

at a book signing, work on your aim.

The best thing would have been to smack one on the table near her. The splatter would have been beautiful.

[CatWoman]

17. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA

:rofl:

[Speck Tater]

18. He should have used a catapult and lobbed them from a mile away. nt

[Jack Rabbit]

19. That is not cool

Shoes are the "in" missile to be aimed at know-nothing politicians. It's been that way for about a year.

[UTUSN]

20. PALIN arrested for seeing a tomato from her bedroom n/t

[earth mom]

21. Damn, he had lousy aim!

How many DUers would pay good money to see her covered in rotten tomatoes?! :evilgrin:

[Gregorian]

24. When vegetables collide!

I couldn't help myself.

[spanone]

25. reminds me of this

[Bjorn Against]

26. I was there today but I missed that...

I was going to try to get in line to get Symbolman's coloring book autographed, but the security in there was insane. It wouldn't have been difficult to throw something at Palin, but to get in line you had to be frisked and have all your bags searched so I was not able to get my coloring book to Palin. It is quite interesting and revealing that the security did more to protect Palin from coloring books than from weapons.

I did end up meeting some friends outside after not being able to get into line however and we walked around the mall with a banner, and it just so happened that we were stopped by a documentary film maker and we may appear in the upcoming TLC documentary "Mall Cops: Mall of America" holding our "Read our Lipstick: End the War" banner and Symbolman's coloring book.

27. Salad dressing is nice too..(Buchanan never looked more appetizing)
