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.

Thanks PittsburghAfterDark.

I want to start a software company, hire that 'hole, get him to relocate to, say, Montana, then pull the plug on the entire operation so he'd be out of a job. And that's just the reaction that I dare post.

I recommend the homeowners place a picture of Granny “Fauxcahontas” Warren next to the sign. Studies have shown that this will repel all sensate creatures, even those of limited intelligence (except Massachusetts democrats, whose lack of intelligence is unmatched).

First off, the people that support Apple are not what I would call conservative.

Second, Apple’s operating systems are like an electronic nanny. You can do whatever you want as long as it’s exactly what Apple has already decided you can do.

I’m an “Apple Bot” (whatever the hell that is), and I’m very conservative. Sometimes, it’s best not to paint with a wide brush, especially when you don’t know what you are talking about.

We “Apple Bots” happen to like Mac products. We don’t work with PC’s (Pieces of Crap)

Basil,

I am hardly painting with a wide brush. Quite the contrary. I was responding to the OP who said that because the protaginist in the story was a democrat/liberal he MUST be a Microsoft user.

My point was, you could hardly make that assumption as Apple probably attracts an equal/higher number of democrats and hence that is not a valid data point.

Cheers!

Okay—I’m sorta known for jumping to conclusions. I’ll alway be an Apple Bot. Right now, I only own 3, but I’m passing one of those on to one of my many grandkids.

Am proud to be on the enemies list with the Deer, though am unworthy. Have destroyed no zer0 signs, thus the Deer is braver than I. A Deer is doing my fighting on the street; I am typing from a keyboard, sending emails, etc. That Deer is making me look pitifully and painfully inadequate to be on the list with the Deer.

I would venture to say Republicans and conservatives use more MS or Android products than Apple products.

You’d be surprised. I find it quite the opposite.
