Billboard displays burning World Trade Center with slogan, 'Please Don't Vote for a Democrat'
Remind me again just which party was in office on that day??
------------------------------------
A political billboard in St. Cloud, Florida reads "Please Don't Vote
for a Democrat" over an image of the burning World Trade Center.
Businessman Mike Meehan, who paid for the ad, says he's "only trying to help Republicans." The billboard also carries a link for Meehan's website, TheRepublicanSong.com, at which he says, "I claim to be a man of God" and promotes his political song and video.
Meehan's song, which appears to have racist overtones, begins, "The Democrat secular progressive move, political correctness is killing us too. They want to take the money from the hard working man, and give it to the lazy folks that don't give a damn."

The proper response, of course, is to put up a billboard depicting a sea of flag-draped coffins with the plea, "Please don't vote for a Republican."

I would contribute money to a billboard like that.

Or a billboard that ran a continual feed of the "enhanced" interrogation techniques video in progress as those men at Abu Graib hung from the ceiling and were beaten to death. Please don't vote for a republican. Or if that's too graphic maybe the fifteen year old boy they've practiced their techniques on for the past seven years at Gitmo and still don't have any evidence against. Jerks!
