Pathetic Billboard



Don't know how many of you have read the story behind this billboard, so, I will share it with you. It is in Orlando, Florida, and was put up by right wing hack, Mike Meehan. It features the burning Twin Towers on 9/11, and says, "Please don't vote for a Democrat."

Well, you know how we Democrats just love terrorists! Isn't that the stupidest thing you have ever seen? Now correct me if I'm wrong, (which I'm not, so don't bother), but didn't we have a Republican president, a Republican Congress, and a Republican Senate when 9/11 occurred? Yeah, I thought so....and that would make his point WHAT? Nothing, except to strike up fear, which is what the Republicans are good at...fear mongering...they've brought it to new heights.

How this guy can use such a horrible time in American history for a political wedge is beyond me. But the Republicans have, with success...they did it in 2004...telling Americans that if they elected a Democrat for President that there would be more terrorist attacks...saying that Democrats aren't patriotic, and don't love America because so many were against (and rightly so) the occupation of Iraq. Now, Barack isn't patriotic because he doesn't wear a 10 cent flag lapel pin made in China. It's enough to make a sane and rational person puke!

Sadly, some will buy into this. Forget the shambles our country is in...and if you do vote Republican, well, you deserve to be associated with guys like Mike Meehan.
