Nationwide Billboard Campaign
2/19/10 | KatyK

Posted on 02/19/2010 9:27:22 AM PST by KatyK

I would love to see more billboards going up around the country with slogans like "Miss me yet?","Marxist",etc. If local areas could organize to buy billboard space throughout the country it could have quite an impact. I'm in the Orlando, FL. area and would like to see one near an airport exit.


TOPICS: Your Opinion/Questions
KEYWORDS: billboard; organized

Good idea. My favorite is the one with the Constitution on the right and the “Miss Me Yet?” on the left. It is thought provoking and would appeal to more than just Republicans fond of Bush.

If I had the money, this would go up outside Lansing or Ann Arbor.

Good idea, but there's only one problem with it.

I don't miss George W. Bush.

I do when it comes to some things. Not so much on others.

Over all I’d take him over Obozo any day of the week.

Rather than look at the past, how about focusing on the future with billboards promoting the future Palin Presidency.

So would I on a practical level. Of course Bush was, functionally, a better president. There are some, however, who say that if America is like an alcoholic that needs to hit bottom in order to get well, Maobama will get us there faster then the semi-socialists.

Though that argument has some intellectual merit, I don't know if I necessarily agree with it.

But to offer an analogy of choosing between Bush and ObaMao, it's kind of like a woman trying to decide whether she's better off going back to the man who just slapped her around every now and again, or staying with the one who regularly throws here down the stairs.

E-mail I recieved today from a friend in Florida...

......................................................................................

The attached photo is of a billboard recently established on I-75 just south of Lake City.

We gathered there today to celebrate its unveiling. The cost of 10 months rental of the billboard and doing the artwork was $6500. We feel that is a reasonable cost to reach out to 1,000,000 vehicles per month and perhaps motivate their participation in the electoral process to get our country on a sound footing.

Obama has been so bad that the question can now seriously be asked, how much worse would Hillary really have been?

“I don’t miss George W. Bush.”

Ditto.

So what are your ideas for billboard slogans?

"What's black and white and Red all over?" (w/pic of Obama)

"There are only two sure things with Obama: Debt and Taxes"

"Obama: Treating Citizens like Terrorists, and Terrorists like Citizens"

"The muslim call to prayer is one of the prettiest sounds on earth at sunset - President Obama, NY Times, March 6, 2007"

"Lord, please give me the strength to not spend America into a fiscal grave - but not yet" (w/picture of Obama in halo) and, of course,

"Obama Macht Frei"

The best objective info based on their senate voting records is that Hillary would have been about 13% better than Obama...

The cost for billboards seems surprisingly cheap, based on the rates quoted for previous billboard stories.

Perhaps local tea party affiliates can raise funds to get billboards in all 50 states, sort of like the "Adopt-a-Highway" program.

Alinsky was right: ridicule is an extremely powerful weapon. Amusing quotes, along with a web link, would be beautiful weapons against Obama's overweening pride.

Other potential slogans:

"Hope and Chains"

"Watermelons: Green on the outside, Red on the inside"

"If you're better at spending mine than earning yours, you might be a Liberal"

"The difference between a Communist and a Liberal? The Communist knows what he is doing"

"Welcome Back, Carter"

Another idea for a billboard:

"Stimulus": $862 Billion

2010 budget: $3.2 TRILLION

New debt planned by Obama by 2020: $12 TRILLION

The look on your grandkid's face when you tell them you voted for Obama: PRICELESS
