Atlanta's Hard Right segment is suffering a severe hangover this morning after last night's "wild and crazy"celebration of all things "Not Obama".
The event's main card was Sean Hannity, with Ralph Reed crawling out of the woodwork once more to test the political waters. The venue was Gwinnett County, a Northeast Atlanta Suburb with a large minority (leaning Latino) population. Not surprisingly, this sub-group was not represented in the audience or on the stage. The parking area was jammed packed with pick-ups bearing tags from as far south as Bibb County (Macon) and as far north as Tennesee (Chattanooga). The faithful were treated to a jolting array of pep/hate talks all wrapped in liberal doses of Mom, Apple Pie and the American Flag. Ice cream was available, but only Vanilla, sorry.

The event, complete with rock star type fireworks and rousing music was capped with surprise appearances by non other than Ollie North and John Voight: both staunch advocates of War. Ollie prefers international mayhem while John has mostly promoted the civil variety of late, in the form of Revolution here at home.
All in all, the evening was judged a knee-slapping success by those in attendance. Hannity, looking ever more pudgy and pasty as time goes on, praised the crowd for their patriotic fervor and promised his undying support of all things Un-Obama. The event was judged a resounding success with the only problem occurring in the parking lot when several minor accidents were reported as a result of vehicles losing traction on the accumulated pools of tobacco spittle on the pavement.
