Supporters of presidential candidate Ron Paul take banners to I-95

Supporters of presidential candidate Ron Paul have tied banners around signs along I-95 throughout Palm Beach County.

BOCA RATON - Supporters of 2008 Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul have taken their campaigning to the highway.

On Interstate 95 from Donald Ross Road in Jupiter south to Boca Raton, supporters have tied Ron Paul banners around Florida Department of Transportation signs.

Some motorists are slowing down to read the messages, which range from "Ron Paul, Ron Paul," to "Ron Paul Revolution" and "2008 Ron Paul for President."

FDOT spokeswoman Meredith Rapp sent out a bulletin to workers that if the banners are noticed to "cut them down today."

She said an e-mail went out as soon as the signs were spotted to "tear down" the banners that have been wrapped around signs as far south as Hillsboro Boulevard in Broward County.

"I'm not sure what would happen to the person who decides to put these banners up. That's up to the Florida Highway Patrol," Rapp said.

I don’t think they’re littering the roads with that one.

I-93 in Woburn. They looked like Lyndon LaRouche’s old supporters.

Artwork is usually the refuge of those who are incapable of engaging in constructive debate.

"Artwork is usually the refuge of those who are incapable of engaging in constructive debate."

Ha! Paulistinian true believers are immune to truth by debate. I use whatever is needed to expose the disinformation and debunk the naive and half baked ideas of the Ron Paul Revolution. If they have to be cornered, I use words. If they have to ridiculed... you must admit nothing beats graphics for ridicule.

They’ve already hung one from a Kalifornia overpass (I-880).

Do not fear the candidate who uses spray paint.  Granted, Paul doesn't have the Slavic Princess thing going for him.

As to the points in the graphics, if you like, you can start with the following questions from a Ron Paul perspective:

- If Jihadist Terrorists attacked the US because we are in the Middle East, didn't Japan attack us because we had colonies in Asia and the Pacific (Philippines & Hawaii)?

- How does 3,000 Americans dying from the Pearl Harbor attack, justify a war costing the US 500,000 dead soldiers/sailors? And how many Americans died on American roads in 1940?

- Where in the RP Constitution does it provide for the Moon Landing?

- The French Vichy government never attacked us, why did we invade France? ( Ditto North Africa & Italy ) Did more French die before D-day or after?
