That bird is amazing! He or she also has great taste in candidates.
Barack and old man McSame in the state on the same day. This should be quite the exciting election season here.

What is the procedure for Las Cruces veteran and their families to obtain an invitation to the Senator Obama Town Hall Meeting in Las Cruces on Memorial Day?

I can understand having an event for veterans. However....why is he making it a private event(invitation only)? Even though it is designed as a veterans event.... I am sure all of the politicians running in the June primary will no doubt make an appearance.
Perhaps the "elitist" accusation that labels his campaign wasn't so off-base afterall.
Hard-working individuals like myself are not worthy of being included in the celebration.

When you have a town hall you can't have thousands of people showing up or it becomes unmanageable. I don't know how invitations are offered but probably through veteran's organizations.
