North Dakota Democrats Change Their Tune On Closed Obama Event In Fargo

Earlier today I blasted North Dakota Democrats for being a bit hypocritical about closed political events for Presidential candidates.  The Democrats criticized both President Bush in 2005 and then-Presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani earlier this year for holding closed events in North Dakota.  Then Obama comes along and announces a closed event of his own.

Except, now according to an updated Fargo Forum article Obama’s event is “free and open to the public.” As long as you have a ticket, that is (I wonder if they executed a wording change because of my post earlier today?).

So it’s still closed, really.  The Democrats just changed the wording of their press release around a bit.  And, naturally, North Dakota’s reporters eat it right up.

Oh well.  I’ll bet North Dakota Democrats are just glad Obama actually knows which state they’re in again.

Hey, cut Obamarama some slack. 

I’ll bet you can’t name all 59 states either.

Hey, he had a 1 in 57 chance of getting it right.

All 57: let’s see...there’s ketchup, mustard, pickles, vinegar...oops, sorry, wrong 57 (shout-out to Teresa Heinz Kerry, though.  How you been, girl?)
