After Romney's standing ovation speech to the VFW, Obama thought he'd stage a "happenchance" meeting with three service veteran "regulars" at a Porland diner.
It was a surprise stop...or at least that's what was conveyed by King5
Oregon Live also covered the “unscheduled stop” at the diner.
Quote:
PORTLAND, OREGON – June 24, 2012 – President Barack Obama visited Portland Tuesday greeting diners Mark Peterson, center, and Thomas Foeller, right, at the Gateway Breakfast House in an unschedueld stop on the way to fundraisers at the Oregon Convention Center. Michael Lloyd/The Oregonian.
But then the truth eked its way out—-
The three veterans were not regulars.
They just happened to be sitting in a booth at the diner when Obama popped in.
“No, they were not regulars.” The waitress who served President Obama, Mary, told me the veterans with whom the President discussed “health care” were not regulars. “Well, maybe one of the guys came in here before…”
In fact, the Obama Campaign just happened to have had a copy each of their of their bios on hand. Neatly assembled and typed-up ready to hand out to pool reporters.
How convenient!!
And, the veterans just happen to be Obama for America volunteers!

So in your Obama-induced stupor, the entire point of this thread flew completely over your head....
