In reply to the discussion: Sand sculpture of Obama built by Myrtle Beach SC for DNC convention. [View all]gateley
(62,683 posts)59. You just asked for our thoughts -- and the misunderstanding is
understandable!
AND, as soon as you learned the truth, you edited the OP. What fries me is those who become apoplectic about something like this (even if it had been DNC) that it's HORRIBLE, the RW will NEVER let this die, it's URGENT this be taken down IMMEDIATELY before irreparable harm is done!!!!!!!!
I'm paraphrasing, but again, if it had been an Obama thing, so what? We would have hated it and really really thought it was a bad idea, but ultimately it's not a deciding factor about anything important. The RW is going to tear us down regardless, so this would have been just another thing to weather. Even the Empty Chair didn't win or lose any votes for Romney, and that's what will count in November.

OP
Well, it doesn't look very much like Obama and it doesn't look like Mt Rushmore either

So it's not the DNC -- that seems to have escaped those who rushed to judgment.

I don't see the fuss, it's a sand sculpture that's in front of a hotel in Charlotte
