RNC Coverage: Red Meat

POSTED BY: Kelly, Onion Editorial Cartoonist

The crowd has grown significantly larger, and rather rambunctious.

There's a lot of hollering going on and I can't make heads nor tails of it. Don't these people know the Republicans Convention is going on nearby? Whatever happened to RESPECT? I may be a Third Party member now but even I have some regard for the sanctity of the Grand Old People in the X-Cel Center.

At last!

If you look in this photo you'll see what this voter wants to hear: the Golden Arches! TV experts often talk about "Red Meat" during the speeches at the Cons. I say "hold the speeches, hold the lettuce!" Time for a "Burger Break"—if I can make it through this crowd, that is.

It's true what they say: I'm Lovin' It!
