"Declare Your Independence with Ernest Hancock" - August 17th 2009
Program Date:Boston T. Party (Ken Royce) in the 2nd Hour - But first...Obama comes to Phoenix (again) and is greeted with peaceful armed people. I bet everyone is polite today :) But then,... there are always the agent provocateurs. This is one good reason for so many video cameras and our doing the radio show live from the event.
Video or it's not happening. :)
Looks like AZCentral reporters are tweeting from the streets:

Crowds estimated to reach as high as 12,000
Press on the streets reports some minor scuffles: one pushing match and opposing sides lobbing accusations of race baiting.

Obama a few minutes into his speech live on TV says "bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla".
MSM already glomming on "man with gun"

From AZCentral tweet:
10:35 kalltucker: Obama talks about electronic medical records for VA to avoid paperwork delays. This is actually a much deeper/darker commitment. My understanding is they're creating a national database to track the DOD and VA medical history of all of our armed forces for their entire lives. It sounds like a model database for the rest of us. But, with total access, it could be used as a tool to keep track of Vets deemed to be good "terrorist material".
Thanks to all of you who are commenting on this. We are using it for the Declare Your Independence With Ernest Hancock show!
TPM comment that should be HOFd:
Two guns?! Two guns! This man is insane. An assault rifle? How in any sense of sanity can this be legal? And even if it's legal where he lives surely the president being there precludes his so called "rights" to own an assault rifle.
re: Chris exercising 2nd amendment:
B-E-A-UTIFUL!! Go Chris!
POTUS out of Arizona air space leaving liberals to scream about "man with gun" for next 6 months.
Where's the archived show?
