"Obama for President sign"

Someone stole our Obama for President sign from our yard last night. They stole nearly all the Obama signs in our neighborhood. The ones they didn't take they spray-painted black. So I made this sign today and staked it in the yard. I fully expect it to be trashed by morning. At least they know the result of their pranks: we give more money to Obama's campaign.

Its probably Obama supporters stealing the signs to make these people pay for more

I had my Kerry-Edwards signs stolen in 2004. They shouted profanities at us as they did it...in the dark, of course. So I made a new one that said "Cowards stole my Kerry-Edwards sign".

Pricks.

I'm with you here Drew! Obama continues to have a difficult time funding his campaign. Heck, it looks like he may not pull in much more than $100 Million this month. That would be $100 Million for the month of October. Which is just half over. After the dismal $67 Million in September donations, I guess he needs every penny he can rake in from signage sales. Full story here

Obviously sarcasm passes over your head... next time I'll fully type out the word for you...

but speaking of financing... how much did McCain pull in?

Drew, if you had actually read the link I provided, maybe you wouldn't have been so quick with that remark about sarcasm passing over my head. In fact, if you read the link, you'd also know how much McCain raised and you wouldn't need to ask me.

You'd also be up to speed on the Republican Party's latest efforts to sling some more mud Obama's way. Seems he's done a little too well raising funds to suit Republicans, so it follows that many of these donations must be from nefarious sources. Like voter registration drives, if it is good for the Democrats, it must therefore be criminal.

So, there you are: free bullets. Try not to shoot off your own toes. Never let it be said I'm not generous to defeated opponents.

Maybe this is why he has such high dontations:

NORTH KANSAS CITY, MO. -- A North Kansas City couple has been left scratching their heads after they became the victims of a political scam.

Steve and Rachel Larman say a strange credit card charge appeared on their statement this month -- a $2300 donation to Barack Obama's presidential campaign. The Larman's say they don't want this to be about their political affiliation, but they say they're not about to give the Obama campaign any help from their pocketbook.

They said they notified Chase, their credit card bank, to report the fraud.

If it is foxnews duh.

If i am a hacker , and i hack your bank account , and i transfer your funds to the RNC , it doesn't mean the rnc is at fault , a hacker can be bought , to smear the party reputation , did you think about this possibility?

Here is what could probably happened :
Gop party , the king of the tricks hires a hacker , hacks some poor family computer , transfers their money to obama bank account , and people will blame obama , there is a reason , the gop is the king of tricks. Ever heard of rove and his brothers in arms??
Think , i think you better than Foxnews , don't fall in the trap .

Actually I did. Did you ever think that Obama supporters are stealing the signs so it would make the news and try and create sympathy for him?

This is great. A local hobo steels some signs for firewood, and suddenly half the world thinks McCain is doing it for spite and the other half thinks that Obama is doing it for sympathy!

What does the third half think?

**EnglishPaul** · 10-18-2008, 05:51 AM

Oh no, the third half can't think. That's why they're in the third half.

If they could think they would know that no one should be in the third half, but being non-thinking people, they are quite content in the third half.

Except for a few mavericks in the third half that are certain that it's the first half that has it all wrong and shouldn't exist!
