I really wanted to see the kid flop on the floor like a flounder out of water.
As it is, it wasn't as 'tragic' as people would lead you to think.

First,

If I had come home and told my parents that I was shocked trying to steal a sign, they would have both kicked the living shiat out of me, then made me go back and apologize to the man for even thinking about stealing, then when I got home they would have kicked the shiat outta me again, just in case I forgot on the way home.

Incredible chutzpah for that dad to come back and even think about complaining.

Moron.

Here's my problem with the whole political sign problem.

First of all,
To pay 10 bucks for a sign that someone is going to steal, egg your house over, get shocked or killed over-Someone did get shot, I didn't get where, I just saw the story posted today- is kinda lame.

I look at it like wearing the low rider jeans with the underwear brand name on the elastic waist band.

It's that phony, "Look at Who I Wear!" attitude that no one cares about. Then it happens to a grade schooler, they get a wedgie from the tough guys on campus- it is an assault- but you can really have avoided the whole problem buy keeping your pants pulled up and not inviting trouble in the first place. Joe Boxer, Klein and all the other undie designers are like politicians, They really could give a loaded diaper about you, as long as you 'buy/support" them by spending precious time or money on making them huge.

After they get your money or vote, you are no longer needed until the next election or the elastic stretches on your shorts.

Now my next peeve?

I really love it when people spend 10 bucks on a sign thats printed up by the local 666 printer's union and the steel stands welded up by Iron Workers/Teamsters-way to keep the economy going. I laugh even harder when I see them turned insider out and being used to promote stuff after the election-

YARD SALE
1234 MAIN
10/31 to 11/3

Or

For Sale
83 plymoth duster
300 or obo?
Runz good/a.c./8trk

Even better when the losers are banned to "recycled sign heaven"
The one thing that bugs me is the idiots that staple the poly signs on telephone poles about 12 feet above ground.

They drive a car next to the pole, climb on the roof and staple their hearts away. I have to look at "Ace Hoole- 37th Assembly - A vote for your town!"
sign until the first week of May 2009 now that ultraviolet light has shredded it up enough for it to fall off the pole, into the sewer and down to the ocean for a turtle to swallow the plastic shards and die.

Yep, Strut you party, affiliation, your candidate, but for crap's sake, clean up after yourselves. You care about recycling, pollution and trash in the streets, but it's back to being irresponsible on November 5th.

Amazing.

And please don't be surprised when I laugh at your 8 year old political bumpersticker. Well, at least to take your trash with you!

Ipeople spend 10 bucks on a sign thats printed up by the local 666 printer's union and the steel stands welded up by Iron Workers/Teamsters-way to keep the economy going.

Is that the same union you belonged to? The one that is representing you in the pursuit of your grievance?

Curious minds want to know!

[RICHARD]

Nope, no apology here.

Try someplace else.

A Metro-Detroit Michigan woman refused to give candy on Halloween to children of Barack Obama supporters.

Shirley Nagel of Grosse Pointe Farms gave out treats Friday evening, but only to those who share her support of John McCain and running mate Sarah Palin.

Fox 2 News reports a sign posted outside Nagel's house, about 12 miles west of Detroit, served notice to all trick-or-treaters. It read: "No handouts for Obama supporters, liars, tricksters or kids of supporters."

Nagel told a Fox 2 reporter that "Obama's scary." When asked about children who'd been turned away empty-handed and crying, she said: "Oh well. Everybody has a choice."

The following video is the Halloween night report live from the home of the McCain supporter who turned away sad, crying children and toddlers.

See what happens when one kid tries to steal an Obama sign?

All the bad kids in the world have to pay the price.

"...That's what I keep thinking - do the signs really matter in the end?...."
maybe not for the top of the ticket, but the name recognition for the down ballot names does help. i have a sign for a county commissioner candidate in my yard. three weeks ago a neighbor, who i haven't spoken to except for "hi how ya doin, nice day" stuff asked me about my candidate, so yes, i think it can help.

It's worked that way for me too. Every 2 years I post the same sign for
a candidate for state office. It's a 2yr term office. I've gotten a lot of
questions & been able to provide info on the candidate. It does make a
difference sometimes.

Well, I guess I can understand that - for local candidates. For presidents though, you'd have to be living under a rock to not recognize the names of the people running
