(Excerpt)

WHEAT RIDGE, Colo. - Call it Freedom of Speech. A billboard recently erected in Wheat Ridge compares President Barack Obama to a terrorist and questions his U.S. citizenship.

The billboard, located at 4855 Miller Road, shows two cartoonish images of Obama wearing a Muslim turban and reads "PRESIDENT or JIHAD?"

It also says "BIRTH CERTIFICATE - PROVE IT!" alluding to the conspiracy theory which claims Barack Obama was born in Kenya rather than Hawaii, which would disqualify him for the office of President.

The words "WAKE UP AMERICA! REMEMBER FT. HOOD!" appear on the bottom of the billboard.

I drive by this sign daily. It's viewable from the freeway. There's a video and a poll at the link as well.

I keep hoping that eventually someone can post a hi-res image suitable for a poster...

**This phony is anti-American, Anti-Christian, Anti-Family and pro-communist, pro-abortion, pro-destroying our lives and our economy!**

You can tell ALL THAT by ONE BILLBOARD??
Or, do you know this individual, personally...
And if they ARE as you say... are you sure you want to admit knowing them, personally?

I believe the poster is describing odumbass.

Um, I think he is talking about B.O. being the phony, anti-American, Anti-Christian, etc.

I HOPE so... my first thought was he was talking about the owner of the billboard... MY BAD!!!

And JUST NOW, CBS Radio news just spent 30 seconds on the BILLBOARD!!! (cue twilight zone music)

Read the story, freep the poll! (same guy that put up a "Where is the Birth Certificate" sign a couple of months ago, I believe)

FREEP THIS POLL ***PING!*** FRmail me if you want to be added or removed from the Fearless Poll-Freeping Freepers Ping list. And be sure to ping me to any polls that need Freepin', if I miss them. (looks like a medium volume list) (gordongekko909, founder of the pinglist, stays on the list until his ghost signs up for the list)

Put more of them up, all over the country.

Mark for later.

Obama's SS would like to speak to the owner of the sign...

...”the first African-American President of the United States.”

Last I checked, the man was bi-racial.

Since there is no “free speech” in the USA, I expect that someone will succeed in getting this taken down.
