Mystery Anti-Obama Billboards appearing in Georgia


How do you get Stalin mixed up with Hitler?

FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. -- An electronic billboard along Georgia 400 with a rotating political message has drawn the attention of drivers on that stretch of highway.

The billboard, just north of Exit 13 -- the Georgia 141/Peachtree Parkway exit -- has a roatating set of messages that are against President Obama. The messages include "Worst President Ever"; "100% Anti-Obama"; "More Jobs Less B.O." and "I was Anti-Obama Before Anti-Obama Was Cool."

A fifth sign, reading "Comrade Obama" and depicting a picture of Adolf Hitler over the 2008 Obama campaign slogan "Yes We Can" on the right and a Communist hammer and sickle on the left, had been removed Friday afternoon.

One DU post mentioned Romney spending money in states where he is supposedly comfortably ahead in polls. Something tells me that Romney is getting in trouble in states that he was ahead in and need to keep them in the fold. Even if the money belongs to Romney surrogates, someone is running scared.

Am soooo tempted to 'release it' from it's 2x4 supports.
After all, it could become a projectile in the coming storm.
