Are the Obama signs/posters disappearing in your area?
me | 11/14/2008 | Grampa Dave

Posted on 11/14/2008 7:01:44 AM PST by Grampa Dave

During my 70th birthday celebration this past weekend, one of the guests, a true independent commented that many of the Obama signs where he lived were no longer up.

His wife agreed and said that in the cutesy area where she worked, many of the Obama signs were gone.

We commented that only one rabid liberal family in our cul de sac put up an Obama sign, and that sign came down the weekend before the election and so did the car stickers.

Since then, my wife and I have observed most of the Obama signs on the roads we drive are gone.

The damn Kerry and Gore signs stayed up until they rotted.

Is anyone else seeing this possible Buyers Remorse or whatever re the removal of Obama signs?

That was good plan to clear your city/area of political signs.

Thanks for the kind words.

We have notice a couple of previously obvious bumper stickers for 0 no longer on the bumpers or real windows.

If the police say anything, just say you were helping the poor illegals in Denver.

I like that idea....I'm doing good by doing good, officer.

Tell him to tell them the Obama campaign is going to pay them for doing this because he wants to use them again in 2012 campaign. Then, after they gather them up, drive off and leave them standing there.

Those signs will be used in the future as a pass: to the front of the line wherever the free government cheese is being handed out.

I don't have an Obama sign but may wish I did after I become so reliant on the government (rather than on myself) that a helicopter dumping bags of rice will oneday be seen as a blessing and the Obama sign as a ticket.

Food relief missions in the heartland of America may seem sureal to some, ok then, try urban America. Not so far-fetched, is it? Instead of the helicopter, today we pass out a debit card- good at most retailers. This card ought to come with the picture of a Marine kicking bags of rice off a Chinook.

And then my wife told me about the new changes at the Roseville Galleria Mall and how fantastic it looked-vowing to drag my butt there before Christmas to see it. The changes she described seemed impossible in the short time since I was there last.

Women shop. It's in their genes.

These people, nasty capitalists all, invested something like $70 million using a ten year outlook and are willing to take a risk on someday seeing a profit. There are bathrooms where little toilets are next to bigger toilets if mommy and child have to go to the bathroom. And, an area where curtains will allow breast feeding moms some privacy.

If such places weren't accessible by all, I'd hate capitalists for contrasting what they can do with what my benevolent government can do. I'd go John Edwards on their asses for exposing the two America's 'cept that every American is a mere car or bus ride away and it's open to everyone.

This undue influence on the minds of women shoppers isn't innocent, it must have an agenda. Capitalist pigs are trying to make too much available to too many people and that's just not right! (I'm Bill Ayers, and I approve this message).

Think about all the people who got paid to build this monstrosity and those who'll fill the jobs selling all this crap to shoppers. Hey, the government can get you a lot of stuff even though it might look like a warehouse, the parking lot may suck, there'll be long lines, and the security personnel may just be a year or two out of prison. If you get there early, they may not be out of what you're looking for.

Edwards was right about two Americas. He was just too busy having sex outside of marriage to ever figure it out. Bill Clinton was too busy in the Oval Office with Monica to ever figure it out. The list of idiots 'too busy' getting it on to 'figure it out' is endless, including a host of Republicans with their pants around their ankles.

Well, folks, my patience has about come to an end with those who 'govern' with no regard for our constitution, no regard for liberty, no ethics, and no virtue.

Whatever pain and suffering we must endure these next few years is directly traceable to our lack of representation by people who wouldn't recognize limited government if it smacked them in the face.

Amongst the two Americas, Conservative America is down by 14 in the fourth quarter with 3 minutes left. That's how bad it is.

Which begs the question: Why must we as Americans have to endure a 'contest' at all, when so many gave their lives in support of a Free America? Why must we field an army to counter socialism or communism here at home, at all?

PS Thanks for the ping Sierra Wasp. I hope you guys are flushing a lot 'cause the lake is getting mighty low. :^)

Bob more helpful suggestions for your Zer0 sign roundup:

"Tell him to tell them the Obama campaign is going to pay them for doing this because he wants to use them again in 2012 campaign. Then, after they gather them up, drive off and leave them standing there."

Or you could drop the illegals and the Zer0 signs off at the Obama campaign office and tell them they will get $5/ sign. Then drive off. :)

Well, bud, never forget that it's a two way street. Our flushes may eventually perk downhill, but the dirty air from the gay bay, I-80, Sacramento and Roseville are wafting up this way in return. What goes around, comes around...

That reply was so good and so profound that I'm gonna come back to it when I have more time. I do have more time than money, by the way!!!

Now that is an excellent suggestion. That would work.

Here in my area of Eastern NC, the Obama signs are out of the yards...although some supporters are taping them to the windows inside their homes...like shrines...it's disgusting...

Putting the signs in the front windows was done by some of the insane Gore and Kerry bots. A couple homes still had those old signs in their windows and the Zer0 sign outside.

Great ideas gentlemen. Haven't needed them yet, but it's always good to have the options.

It's something I've borrowed from Rush who grew up despising the Hippies and their acid rock on radio's FM stations, as opposed to his beloved AM top 50 radio stations that he always wanted to be a DJ (Disk Jockey) for.

I keep forgetting just how young and innocent you really are!!!

The buttons (especially among those 18-25 years old, who should be sterilized before they breed) and the bumper magnets remain, but the signs are gone, per Mercer County law.
