As to the wandering onto someone else’s lawn — it’s Halloween/Devil’s Or Angel’s) Night/Homecoming/HS football game time. I’m sure there’ll be a bunch of toilet paper in trees all over the neighborhood before the season is over.

When the lefties are so predictable in their thuggery, it seems like it should be easy to trap them. I like the idea of electrifying your signs. What about tiger traps? Without the punji stakes, of course. Dog poo should suffice.

It may just be high school kids having some fun. They switched our Kerry sign with a Bush sign in a conservative neighborhood in Western Michigan four years ago. And it looks like someone took an Obama/Biden sign from a house a block over in a conservative neighborhood in North Texas where we now live.

That’s not hi-jinks, that’s suppression of your right to express a political viewpoint, and your neighbor’s too. Even in high school I knew better than to wander onto someone else’s lawn — that’s something you learn not to do before you enter elementary school (at least it was in the days when society let kids walk unescorted to kindergarten).

My neighbor also has a very large Obama sign. I might not agree with her politics, but if I see someone up on her lawn touching that sign, they will not walk off scot free. Taking down or vandalizing political signs is pretty serious stuff, which cuts right to the core of American political practices.

Don’t you just love how guilt by association is back on the menu? The Obama campaign is demagoguing the hell out of McCain for not denouncing Obama-hating racists fast enough, a tactic that the NYT seems enthusiastic to promote…….

Perhaps coating the sign with a small amount of acetone peroxide or fulminate of mercury?

From the same guy who makes idiot bomb remarks at the airport.

This morning I counted 13 McCain and 3 Obama signs. What do you make of that?

In their self-righteous minds, conservatives are evil, so they feel totally justified, like they are performing a community service.

Unfortunately, there is much truth to this statement. Having lived in a Liberal area of Los Angeles for most of my adult life, I witnessed this first hand far too often.

When Obama loses this election, look over your shoulder often, and watch for vandalism in areas where people aren’t totin guns. These chicken shit Liberals slither around the dark of the night dead set on getting even with those wing nuts.

Swabby,

Where have you been? Missed you old pal!

I also don’t have a sticker on my car for the same reason.

I do wear my McCain/Palin t-shirt though and I get only positive responses (although I have gotten dirty looks) but at least they can’t “key” me!

Why don’t the fairly decent among the Obama supporters realize that many of their fellow Obama supporters are thugs?

You are assuming that there are any decent ones.

After 8 years of listening to the BDS, I have my doubts.

Right on. Here in Pinellas the McCain to Obama bumperstickers are about equal, and over the past weeks I’d even give the edge to McCain. Contrast that with 4 years ago where they were probably 3:2 for Kerry. Obama signage is much less than Kerry was. A guy on my street even has a homemade McCain Palin sign…garish yet AWESOME.

Same here, Rosmerta. My yard is the only one on our block with any signs. We have one for our (Republican) congressional candidate, district council and two for McCain/Palin (one I finally got from the Repub. HQ and the one I made myself that says…”Obama? No thanks, keep the change. McCain – Palin 08″. This is no indication of anything, but I’ve only seen a couple of Obama signs in yards of homes that could be considered “middle class”. Almost none in rural areas. Most of the Obama signs I’ve seen are in “distressed” areas and poorer neighborhoods. I guess they’re “hoping” for bigger handouts from The One.

My sign’s been OK for the last several days since I put it up … I come out every morning expecting to see it gone. Actually I don’t know how my neighbors are voting – I’ve seen hardly any signs or bumper stickers around but mine. Weird.

Years ago, friend of mine had a problem with a dog pushing over his trash can.

A livestock quality electric fencer gives off a safe kilovolt pulse that kicks like a horse. Safe for use on cats, dogs, and liberals. It’s the only language they understand.

Video-cams are more sadistic for use on liberals and still recommended.
