I think its also proof of the fark gods greening an Obama headline and it didn't even break double digit posts.

Because, you know, I'm sure its the money she's upset about. And not that disappointment of having something she's really looking forward to snatched away at the last moment... thing.

Obviously this woman doesn't read the news source she complained to. Especially on the one issue she was so interested in (getting tickets to see Obama in Denver)...

---

People who get tickets to see Barack Obama at Invesco Field will be required to show they can get there and plan to attend the event themselves, officials said Thursday.

Jenny Backus, Obama's senior adviser to the convention, said with thousands of people wanting to go, the Obama campaign wants to make sure all tickets get used by the people who requested them.

"When we distribute the tickets, one of the only prerequisites for tickets is - since they're free - is that you have to tell us how you're going to get there," she said. "You need to give us a plan on how you're going to get there and you'll have to check back in with us a couple of times along the way."

News headline: money-making enterprise makes moolah off someone not paying attention. Details at 11.

She's an idiot. Nothing was snatched away. A non story.
