You have been lied to. The freepers have proven that Barack Obama did not have 100,000 people in St. Louis listen to the truth and don't believe what people tell you.

That is sickening.

Wanna bet that the bulk of that crowd is not from ‘red’ Missouri but from ‘blue’ Illinois
Just a guess

The truth shall set you free My Friends.
Doubt
No way....Is that real?
I bet 80,000 were bussed in from other states.
He’s got enough money to do it.

photoshopped
I think that second section against the skyline is a photo "adjustment," it looks fake.

Excuse
Exactly. If he would come here to SW MO he would’nt get 20 people to show up.
St.Louis and K.C. are the only reason McClucksill is Senator. They are truly just microcosm’s of commies imbedded in an otherwise conservative state.

Sarah Palin gets a bigger crowd
They are trying so hard to compete with Sarah’s crowds. Kind of reminds me of a little kid competing with another.

The MSM never tells us about Gov. Palin Rallies that draw more than 100,000 people.

Fear
Probably right out of Obama's own campaign coffers. Since he hasn't really closed the deal yet, right now he's all about creating the perception of inevitability as a way of reassuring fence-sitters that masses of their fellow Americans are comfortable with him.
What's scary is what may happen as a result of this if he doesn't win. There are people out there who are so completely emotionally wrapped up in the fact that he "will" be the next President that if he doesn't ... they're going to absolutely freak.

Compare him to Hitler
I was thinking the same thing — need to set up a "FReeper state." Looks like the Hitler youth re outstretched arms. Creepy.
Seriously, though, this is St. Louis, one of the ahem, poorest, blackest cities around and close enough to other similar populations to have thousands bussed in by ACORN.
No doubt they were giving away food, drink, money, cigarettes, ad nauseum, and was there a concert of some sort beforehand? Just curious. There are always big name "celebrities" at the Zero’s rallies.
At a McCain-Palin rally, you might get a little flag or pom poms yet our side comes out in droves. Keep the faith.

Sarah Palin can DRAW 200,000 so eat that.
Answer with a Sarah Palin rally in the same place. Would draw 200,000.

Proof that the picture has been faked.
I live in suburb of St. Louis and I can tell you that this picture has been faked. From the arch grounds, where Obama is talking to the hotel in the background and the courthouse, there is a highway and overpass of highway cloverleafs that lead over to E. St. Louis. You don’t even see a street between Obama, the hotel and the courthouse in the picture — definitely photoshopped.

More proof that the photo is a fake.
Someone needs to explain to me how a sea of people could "cross" Highway 70 which separates the Old Courthouse from the Arch grounds. There are eight (three each on either side of the two sunken Hwy lanes) between the grounds and those two buildings on either side of the "mass." The one on the left is the CBS building and the one on the right is the Adams Mark Hotel.
A really big turnout at the Arch happens every 4th of July — supposedly over a million.
I don’t believe this is a real photo.

Another excuse that another event went on and Obama just asked to speak there.
So is this picture taken at a Fall Festival which is why they were all there in the first place and Osama asked to speak at the event, OR was this specifically an Osama rally exclusively????
I haven’t seen the answer yet. I think it matters....a LOT!!!

More proof that the photos are fake.
Here's the picture from the top of the article. Notice the dourthouse in red.
How here's an overhead shot of the same area.
The courthouse is off the picture in the direction of the arrow.
The stage must be at the right hand side of the picture where the red line is.
Where are the 8? lanes of traffic in the top picture that are in the red square in the bottom picture>
