Some say a Warren restaurant's tempting offer is nothing but a dirty campaign trick. The local pizzeria is offering free pizza in exchange for some campaign signs.

$2 says people will... “borrow” these signs from their neighbors...
Light the sign and throw it in.
Mafia tactics.
We’ve had McCain signs stolen on our street, but I noticed my Hummer driving neighbor still had her signs.
LOL....Just got a picture in my head of a drunk dude going in at 1am here man here my McCain sign I want a large pizza!! Oh and I brought another sign for your tip......
I hope their little farce causes them to lose all their business from McCain voters. Clearly the intent is for people to steal signs out of people’s yards.
This idiot took a page out of Guerilla Marketing, only in that book it was if folks took ads from the page in the phone book for opposing pizza shops.
Come on people, think outside the box the other side is.
Print up McCain signs and take them to the restaurant and get your free food.
Enough of us do this there will not be any more food left for sale for money and this restaurant will loose a ton, this is only what they understand.
Soliciting to receive stolen property?
Or, if you really feel like getting revenge, poison oak/ivy oil all over the sign (just crush it and wipe the oil on the sign - make sure you use gloves).
The latter will let you know if it was a neighbor...
I suppose for you city-folk, a bit of dog poop, judiciously applied, would also be rather satisfying. Also sprinkle liberally about the base of the sign. Just sharing the love.
Obama signs are available in our area at an independent leftist bookstore (expected) and at a local brew pub/family restaurant. I know two families that will not visit Franklin’s General Store for a while. I like to support local businesses but many chains do a good job and are more discreet with their politics.
Secure some fish hooks on the back of the sign then just follow the blood stains and hollering.
Or at the least let the owner know what you think...

I am sitting at my desk looking at about 200 signs waiting for people to pick up, I volunteered my business as a distribution point for anyone looking for signs.
We are out of McCain/Palin signs, a group of people showed up wanting a bunch, took almost all we had. We found out later that there was a group from IU that have been taking all the signs they can get and then trashing them, I am 99% sure they were here.
We now have to limit the number people take to one unless we know them or they show us the secret hand shake...
now it is all about the left going browshirt.
