billcoe Posted August 27, 2008 Posted August 27, 2008 Nice pic PP, they could have used that set from Spinal Tap and saved some $ Damn that was an interesting part of that movie. Quote

octopuswithafez Posted August 27, 2008 Posted August 27, 2008 (edited) DENVER (Reuters) - Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama's big speech on Thursday night will be delivered from an elaborate columned stage resembling a miniature Greek temple. ( link ) From Politico Barack Obama's appearance in Denver won't be the first convention speech framed by Greek columns. Republicans who are mocking Obama's appearance haven't mentioned it, but George W. Bush accepted his own nomination in 2004 on a set with a similar neoclassical theme, with columns rising on either side of him, as the pictures above and below show.
