We love it when fellow bloggers take swipes at The Source. Not only does it increase traffic, but it lets us show how much smarter we are then them; like knowing how to spell "assassination".
Missouri Political News Service (MOPNS) takes The Source to task because we dared to call on Barry Obama to come out and at least wave to his supporters. MOPNS thinks we missed the boat because of a recent arrest and alleged assassination plot against Barry. Because of that, they think Barry is justified in hiding from fans.
In fact, if MOPNS had bothered to dig a little further, they would have found that the supposed assassination arrests turned out never to be a "credible threat." Law enforcement authorities are now saying, "We're absolutely confident there is no credible threat to the candidate." It was much ado about nothing, but we already knew that.
So, MOPNS, are you willing to admit Barry could have shown a little more love to the very supporters he claims to owe his success?
Call us conspiracy theorists if you like, but it sounds like something the authorities are trying to downplay. Not good PR for a national convention and a city.
