    Not saying this is strictly Dems who would do things like this, just using this as an example of how our country is slowly ripping itself apart. Roman Empire anybody? Rotting from the inside out.

    My bad I always forget. If I really wanted to know where it came from, I would just google the first line.

    I'm glad you made the point that it's not just one side.

    The lone public Obama supporter in my parents east texas town has been threatened repeatedly and called a "n***** lover" by brave souls from the windows of their large trucks.

    Brave dude in any case.

    Stealing signs happens. A friend of mine who lives in a suburb of Minneapolis had his sign opposing the MN marriage amendment, it would restrict marriage to only heterosexuals, stolen.

    I gotta admit I had that case in mind. Anyway if this is real I hope that guy recovers and they catch the thugs.

    So, I'm willing to bet that the state legislator's son got into some drunk fratboy fight, and his dad immediately thought "okay ... how can I make this look good?"

    I put another sign on my Obama sign.

    "You steal my sign, I donate $100 to Obama."

    I've had to replace it twice.

    No, the whole idea behind it was that Americans are more hateful towards each other these days. Pubs and Dems yelling at each other, races hating each other, occupy wall street.

    Things are getting out of hand.

    This is why I would never put a right-wing sticker on my car.

    Yeah, that doesn't sound right. Good catch.

    It is not true, another example of fear mongering by the extreme right. On another note, 4 years ago I had 3-4 Obama signs stolen.
