Remember that guy who sued some years ago because Mary Hart's voice drove him crazy? Sounds like Polite is cut from the same cloth.

“There should be rules,’’ says Polite.

Rules?

Thought there was a "Rule" about political speech.

(The First Amendment is still in the Constitution Sir Billybob, isn't it?)

Mr. Polite is a budding fascist.

Seriously.

Does this whacko suggest that all pictures of presidents, mayors, and governors (and City Councilmen) should also be removed from all state, county, and city office buildings?

No, I didn;t think so.

Polite is quite a rude dude.

By his logic, no images of President Bush should be shown on public TV, hung in court houses, or in police stations.

Don't you just love it when the libs show what they're made of!

Hmm, the law can be changed, but I don't think it could be enforced against the owner of this stand. A little something known as "ex post facto" would come into play, methinks.

The standholder has refused to do so, prompting Polite to say he will ask City Council to change the law so that all political items would be banned in public places.

I can't figure out whether to break out in laughter or tears.

Besides, says the Democrat, “Bush didn’t win here (in Lancaster City).

But whupped Kerry's ass in the rest of the county.

"It is like rubbing salt on a wound.”

Too bad you you, Mr. Polite, that the nearest Kerry-Therapy group is probably in Philly. But Amtrak will take you there.

But a picture of a half-naked Paris Hilton - that doesn't frighten children and living things as much as President Bush does.

It is that separation of STATE and STATE.

Simple solution for Mr. Polite and the other whining clymers: Don't patronize Mr. Stolzfus's business. If the President's photo is so offensive, the free market will punish him.

ex post facto wouldn't apply as it protects one from prosecution for something that was done prior to it being illegal.

As an example in this case, say the law was changed and the penalty was a fine of $100 a day per violation. He could be fined for every day that the picture remained up after the law went into effect but could not be fined for days it was up prior to the law taking effect.

"he said the photo offended him and city Democrats"

I am getting so damn sick and tired of all the libs being offended by everything. I find them offensive but do not tell them to shut up. I found Clinton offensive to be President, but he was still our elected President. These little fascist wannabes need to get on with their lives.

Just for fun to see how the Rat's react, add a picture of Christ right next to George's.

Does Mr. Polite realize that the Blue State's stars are still on the flag and could be misconstrued as tacit support for The United States of America!
