Just saw a disturbing protest sign.
Went to get some lunch and a youngish man walked by with a big sign that said "Congress is dead. Obama is King." He was headed to the federal building where the protest is supposed to be today.

At first I couldn't figure out if it was a pro Obama sign or not. Until I saw he'd drawn a target inside the "O" in Obama.

He didn't look insane but the sign gave me a huge chill.

2. Too bad he couldn't have expressed those sentiments in 2002
Back when Bush forced Congress into giving him just enough authroization to invade Iraq.

Should've left out the crosshairs, though. What an idiot.

as were Democrats protesting in St. Paul? Doubt it. To me this is a threat on the life of the President.

6. It is disturbing, but maybe a good thing. The organizers (Fox News and their buddies) have been
trying very hard to keep this just about taxes but some of their moronic followers keep wanting to bring up Islam and Facism and Obama which muddies their message but also shows their true colors.
