No candy for Obama supporters.....

"Supporting Obama? No treats for you at Grosse Pointe Farms house. Detroit News and Associated Press GROSSE POINTE FARMS --

A Grosse Pointe Farms woman refused Halloween treats to children whose parents support Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama.
Shirley Nagel passed out candy Friday -- but only to those who shared her support for Republican presidential candidate John McCain and running mate Sarah Palin.

A sign was posted Friday outside Nagel's house and it served notice to all trick-or-treaters, according to Channel 2/WJBK-TV. It read: "No handouts for Obama supporters, liars, tricksters or kids of supporters."

On Saturday afternoon, the sign was no longer there.
Nagel told WJBK-TV 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."

Her next door neighbor Gregory Bowens, who has an Obama sign propped in his front yard, said when he heard about his neighbor's actions he put up posters proclaiming "Obama 4 Peace" and "candy for all." He encouraged trick-or-treaters denied next door to scrawl positive messages about Obama or anything else on his driveway.

"The truth is it was a very mean thing to do," Bowens said. "I thought I should do something positive."

While the neighborhood is dotted by several McCain and Obama signs, Bowens said neighbors get along and politics is rarely an issue.
A phone message and a visit to Nagel's home went unanswered Saturday evening."


Some people are just so mean spirited. And the irony is that after Obama wins, she will have more money to buy more candy.

3. Anyone notice a trend here? These are the people that after the election is over

That we are supposed to be nice to and try to get along with. Yet everything they do is so anti-american anti freedom anti everything I don't see how we can find any common ground with them. After Obama is elected these assholes are going to be plotting and planning to take him by any means they can. BTW, it also shows that their talking point "its about the children" is also crap.

Yeah I know crap has been my word for the day. Blame mom, shes been on my ass for 2 months now to get me to stop cussing at puke supporters. 52 years old and still getting told by mom to stop cussing sheesh some things never change do they lol.

4. nothing like giving kids bad memories about some people and their politics ...

I mean, the crystallizing moment for David Brock was when a few assholes made it impossible for a RWer to make her speech ... and he went totally against anybody who would have been sympathetic to his homosexuality just to "score points" ...

7. I hope that a lot

of repubs will change their views and come over to our side. They've been on the dark side long enough. A bit of enlightenment will do them a world of good.

9. Evil old lady.

And I thought the guy who gave out Chick tracts instead of candy for halloween in my old neighborhood was a meanie.

Back in my day, the older kids in the neighborhood would've made sure to enforce the "trick" part of "trick or treat" had we faced this situation.
