That is on public grounds and would be illegal IMO.
Just remove them; too easy. It’s not private property if on federal property. This is no different than if you were in the wilderness, right in the middle of a National Forest, and you removed the litter left behind.
This is a misprint, the word ‘over’ was dropped. ;)
Put one next to it. Newman for Obama.
They are counting on the fact that by the time a complaint gets investigated the election will be over.
Hell, yes! And to the four network news stations in your area, and to FNC, Drudge, and the rest!
Get cracking, man!
Complain? Uhmmm.....Yes!!!
I’d take the pic immediately to the local GOP headquarters as well as to the Postmaster and complain quite forcefully.
I might even ask the Postmaster when would be a good time to suggest that the FBI might connect with him most conveniently to interview him about it.
If you can’t put a cross or a nativity scene there for Christmas you shouldn’t be able to put anything up about the O Messiah.
If those signs are on Postal Service property, that has to be a violation of the Hatch Act. You should report it to the Postmaster immediately.
Doesn't appear to be.
Public Law 107-155 It shall be unlawful for any person to solicit or receive a donation of money or other thing of value in connection with a Federal, State, or local election from a person who is located in a room or building occupied in the discharge of official duties by an officer or employee of the United States. It shall be unlawful for an individual who is an officer or employee of the Federal Government, including the President, Vice President, and Members of Congress, to solicit a donation of money or other thing of value in connection with a Federal, State, or local election, while in any room or building occupied in the discharge of official duties by an officer or employee of the United States, from any person." This is generally interpreted to bar campaigning from federal property.
'McCain-Feingold' ;O)
I’m not sure that associating Obama with the postal system works to his advantage.
Does that mean if you vote Obama you’re “going postal”?
But I don’t understand ...
Postal workers like to have the option to “go postal”
“Going postal” requires a gun(s)
Obama will take away everyone’s guns
So why would Postal workers support OBamBam?
Is it an IQ thang? (not referring to any FReeper postal workers)
Take a marker to it and make it “NObama”.
I wonder who DHL is supporting this year.
Federal property and its illegal.
Remove them and warn them you will contact the US postal service in Wash DC.

Clearly illegal!
Looks like a Hatch Act violation to me.
