‘Anti-Obama’ Billboards Go Viral
April 5, 2010 - 1:19 PM | by: Elizabeth Prann
If you have something to say – put it on a billboard. Atlanta commuters are noticing electronic billboards in metro Atlanta posting anti-Obama messages. The idea turns what is normally a staple of commercial advertising into a platform for political opinions - a bumper-sticker slogan aimed at a wider audience.
The signs include: ‘Stop Obama’s Socialism.”
“If You’re Not Outraged, You’re Not Paying Attention.”
“Now It’s Personal! America’s Coming for You Congress! Vote Liberals Out in 2010.”
“Stop the Lies.”
The billboard sponsors consists of about 12 local businessmen. They've created a Web site: billboardsagainstobama.com, where you can find four billboards messages to donate to.
Spokesperson Tommy Newberry says there has seen such an influx of interest, sponsors are creating 50 billboard designs for donators to pick from. He also says it won't take long before the billboards start popping up around the nation.
“We are now very well funded. We are getting about a donation a minute,” Newberry said.
Donations range from a few dollars to $500 dollars. Newberry also has had about a dozen requests for an entire billboard. An electronic billboards advertisement can cost up to $3,500 a month.
Newberry says the group's ultimate goal is to not only grab people's attention but also educate and motivate them.
“There’s a lot of energy from people who want to participate and they don’t know exactly what they want to do. We can speak for them, on their behalf,” Newberry said.

The GOP is playing its tattered Obama is a closet socialist trump card again. The aim is to tar President Obama as a radical out to soak the rich, hamstring private business, and radically redistribute wealth downward to the poor.

He is a European style social democrat and obviously he has the progressive hankering for a parliamentary system.
Hasn't Obama publicly stated these goals...although I'd assume he didn't use the term hamstring, although that is the net effect.
A Marxist is insulted when you call him a socialist.
“The GOP is playing its tattered Obama is a closet socialist trump card again.
Closet Socialist ????
I would say, full blown Marxist/Communist,
and certainly OUT of the closet.
At the Tax Day Tea Party (2009) I was carrying a sign:
“HUSSEIN = COMMIE”
And a couple libs gave me attitude for it.
Since then, Ocommie has proven himself to be the biggest Communist the USA has ever seen.
I hope to see one here soon.
Truth hurts.
Fascist.
Nobody needs to tar Osama as a socialist, he's proving that fact on a daily basis.
Well yeah. Thats what he is doing. Duh.
How about this one:
"If You're Not Outraged, You're Not Paying TAXES."
He was never in the closet in this regard. He just suckered enough idiots in to vote for him. They would be "independents and moderates" as they like to call themselves. Idiots I say.
I had not heard that the employer insurance benefit will be counted as income. That is a big tax bite, even for those of us who have free employer provided insurance! Wow!
Sound about right. That part about being a CLOSET socialist? Not hardly. He is in your face with it.
vaudine
Wow. I know that in 2011 on your W-2 it now has to have
what your employer paid for your Health coverage do you think this is what he means? Yikes that is all we need is to add more income without actually the income.
“He was never in the closet in this regard. He just suckered enough idiots in to vote for him. They would be “independents and moderates” as they like to call themselves. Idiots I say.”
This is why I have little hope for the once great USA, now USSA.
When you still have 45%, or so, citizens that still think Obozo is a good POTUS, it is obvious that the citizenry has
been dumbed down to moron level by the Marxist media and educational system.
I feel for those that still have to live there.
