CLERMONT - Clermont police have interviewed one suspect who is admitting to putting up the dozens of posters pasted around the city depicting President Obama as the Joker character from the Batman film The Dark Knight, city officials confirmed.
Assistant City Manager Darren Gray said city officials have an individual "admitting to putting up 500" of the posters.
Clermont Police Capt. Eric Jensen said the male individual has admitted to putting up some signs, but investigators suspect others were involved and their investigation is continuing

I guess it’s unlawful to criticize the Obama.
the cops routinely cite lack of manpower to investigate small crimes - this joker poster is definately getting under the skin of the libs.
Let’s see.... The posters do not threaten Obama. They are not racist. They’re not graffiti. What’s the offense? Doh— lack of respect for our POTUS. (That wasn’t a crime when Bush was POTUS.)
Coming soon to a town or village near you!!
Look out for the “Joker Express”
Why don’t they investigate a “tagger”, one of those idiots with spray paint?
“Clermont police interview suspect in Obama ‘Joker’ posters”
Did anyone “interview” those that created the horrible posters of Bush?
Littering.
I feel the need to print off about 100 or so of those posters and put them up on walls in my town.
I want one. If this is true the people of Clearmont should immediatly fire the Police Chief.
If that were the potential charge, it would certainly be serious enough reason for police to take time from murder and other mayhem to investigate. Excellent use of resources. /s
So where can I get some of the posters?? I wanna be a SUSPECT TOO!!
I wonder if they’ll go after Tom T. Hall?

Disrespect of Der Amerikaner Fuhrer will not be tolerated!
Heil Obama!
Yeah, they talk about the “cost” of cleaning this up. I can’t remember the last time that cops were tasked to remove posters. If left alone, its one of those things that takes care of itself.
They also mention that folks are going around tearing them down. Are these Dem operatives or ACORN activists?
Amazingly, the article also mentions that the police are interviewing “victims” of this incident. This must be liberals who were traumatized by the sight of these posters. Make you wonder if this a parody.
LOL. I know...
