Hahahaha! Thanks for the evening entertainment!
These chowderheads would probably also think that the Declaration of Independence was slander against King George. They really don't 'get' the fact that insulting politicians or government is protected speech of the highest order. If it wasn't, let's just say that Free(Re)public would have been shut down long before even Kerry started campaigning. I recommend these Selectmen take a flight to Cuba or China where they will their attempted censorship at least has a chance. Nobody can insult the integrity of a politician in either of those places. They'll feel right at home.
Ugg, bad edit.
