Super Saturday. Seriously. Three days?!
So as I have said before, they like to "spring" nice "events" on us. Neeat.
So on this particular Super Saturday, we found out that we were having a rally in front of the Capitol. Super Neeat.
But those of us fortunate enough to find ourselves in the state of Iowa - yes, I said fortunate, dammit. It is exciting as hell here and the folks are very nice - except for a notable few (whom you usually find at rallies) - but we are spoiled out here. You think I'd be sick of rallies, but it beats being in the office.
Anyhoo, we were visited by Bon Jovi (again), Ashton Kutcher (Call me Kutch!), and The Senator himself, John Kerry.
After some interesting "field work" (can you say visibility patrol?), got to enjoy some of the event up close as I attempted to find our signs (they were behind the crowd of us).
Surprisingly, Ashton Kutcher is awesome as a surrogate. He's from Iowa, his dad worked in a factory, his mom is a teacher - he talked for a long time about his poor roots out here in Iowa - and how he voted for Bush the first time. He said he was there to right his wrongs and that he was "punked" into thinking Bush was just a regular guy like the rest of us. And he was there so that our taxes could be lowered and his could be raised. He kicked ass. Bon Jovi is great, as always, and John Kerry was sharp.
Since I've got some more work to do, I'll leave you with these pictures - many of them came out dark because it wasn't so nice out - until John Kerry came out and suddenly, the sun came out. Seriously.
Here's some pics. Enjoy.
Mr. Demi Moore. Well, nah, he's the latest "it" boy, if you will. He's a good kid.
Jon Bon Jovi from the front. Just as nice as the back.
Yeah, man. Rock on!
Extreme close up, but hell, I love this guy. He noticed my hat again, but briefly. The Secret Service were ready to "take me down!" if I tried to get him to sign it. I enjoy my freedom. I shook his hand instead.
It's getting close, but we're on the verge here, folks. Everyone out of their houses, get on the phones, knock those doors. We're gonna change America, people, but it will take all of us.
