Fired up, ready to go

At Saturday's rally in Minnesota, TV showed President Obama and the crowd doing the chant "Fired up. Ready to go."
That's good. Especially because the chant didn't come from David Axelrod or an army of political consultants. It came from a lady in Greenwood, South Carolina who inspired Obama with it during the primary campaign.
The brilliance of the American people was on display in Washington Saturday. Lots of homemade signs with slogans they thought up. There were reports of a lady with a "Boobs Czar" t-shirt. They didn't have a picture, but I bet somebody in the crowd got the picture.
When it's posted, it's going to be popular. I bet a t-shirt company will be selling "Boobs Czar" t-shirts by the end of the week.
The "fired up" lady and "Boobs Czar" lady are just ordinary Americans looking to make their country better.
The large numbers who marched in Washington should be a warning to all those in power - "Listen to us." Lest they should soon be "Fired. Made to go home."
UPDATE: Don Surber found a picture of the "Boobs Czar" lady. I bet there's better pictures out there.
UPDATE 2: The t-shirt actually says "Boob Czar." Jim Treacher's having fun with the idea.
