PHOTOS: ICE COLD seats await wealthy reTHUGlicans in DC

These are the seats that COST LOTS OF MONEY....these seats will STILL be ICE COLD tomorrow morning for the coronation, with the wind chill, currently 11 F in DC....


IMO, a LOT of these ice cold seats will be EMPTY for the big bush* speech....

10. Didn't they hold at least one of Nixon's inaugurations indoors?
That's what I'm predicting -- they'll move the entire coronation inside if it's going to be too "inconvenient" for it to be outdoors. They don't care about it being PUBLIC in the least anyway; there's room inside for the only people they truly care about.

18. It won't be like the antiwar protest
a couple of years ago, seems like a lifetime now, when hyndreds of thousands turned out into the frigid artic air to let the shrub know what we thought about him and his grand adventure.
At least they can afford the medical care for pnemonia, let natural selection kick in.

24. Well, I'm assuming that there is a fire hydrant nearby
A pipe wrench and a good length of two inch hose will make things all kinds of fun tommorow. Hook up the hose, and spray everything down with water. Ooo, the coranation on ice!:evilgrin:
