I have a campaign yard sign for the first time
supporting a GOP state senator.
Why? 1) because he has won an award from a local mental health association for his work 2) he has done a lot for local health initiatives 3) his democratic opponent is obnoxious and has an ugly family 4) a neighbor up the street has a sign for the obnoxious democrat It's a good feeling to thumb your nose at your neighbor. |

Strange that I was going to start a campaign sign thread as well. I'll just add my story to yours.
Not more than 1/2 hour ago, a young man and young woman - both looked to be late teens or early twenties - and asked if they could put an Obama/Biden sign in my yard. My first answer was a polite no, as I never have campaign signs in my yard. They persisted and I told them that I could never support a baby murdering Marxist who didn't think I should be able to use my guns for self-defense. They had stunned looks on their faces as I closed the door. Dang, I hope some JWs knock on my door today.

Wow. Even Heath Ledger would have been more polite to kids than that.

The lesson they learned is not to ask a question of which they might not want to hear the answer.

You are now officially off my invite list - not that I actually have one, but you've just removed yourself.
