Republican Deer Smashes Obama Yard Signs
Fox News ^ | September 21, 2012 | Joshua Rhett Miller

Rudolph the red-state reindeer?

A Texas couple determined to find out who had been damaging a sign in their front yard proclaiming their support for President Obama's re-election bid caught the offender on Wednesday. Tom Priem, a software support engineer in Austin, told FoxNews.com he and his wife, who live on a block where political signs dot front yards, were fed up with seeing only their Obama sign repeatedly defaced.

“The sign had holes poked in it like somebody had stuck a knife through it,” Priem said Friday. “At first I thought it was somebody who didn’t like Obama.”

Priem said he even called a city hotline to document the incident in case a more insidious offender was to blame. He couldn’t believe his eyes when his wife showed him the surveillance photo she snapped seconds after the campaign sign was destroyed - by a buck.

The varmint's vandalism began about 10 days ago and it’s unclear what the animal has against the sign.

It has been reported, media personnel on the way to the scene of this reported crime. zer0 has been quoted as having said, “The nerve, find this deer and do what has to be done.”

He should set an empty chair next to his Obama sign to scare the deer off.

billyhilly have now been quoted, that they paid the deer. This goes deeper than knives. zer0 is said to be furious, and reports say it was commented TAKE A GUN, HECK TAKE ALL THE GUNS. Secret Service is refusing to become involved. Saying send someone else.

I support Microsoft products at least in part. What are you trying to say? You think Apple is more conservative?

This just in ... The Military has been polled. There were no surprises. An overwhelming 90% have applauded the deer. UN officials are stating this is a sad, sad day.

Even the DEER in Texas are smarter than your average liberal. LOL.

It is almost like the stadium. The Military reports that nobody is willing to pull the trigger. Stadium empty = the deer lives.

Austin. Uh huh, I called it. Austin is the blue blight in the middle of a blue state. Austin, home of uber lib UT, tree huggers and Hippy Hollow nutters. Even the deer are smarted than Austinites.
