OBAMA
SAVE
“MY”
HOME

What’s with the quotation marks?

I don’t usually point out such things—if I did so consistently, I couldn’t get anything else done. (Agrippa, you’re also missing a comma.)

I do so now, though, because misused quotation marks can lead to interesting interpretations, and this is one of those times.

I think 'Save "My" Home' references the fact that its not really hers, its only her home if its paid off, otherwise its really the bank's security and their property to be shortly.

FWIW, she could have used an exclamation point right after "Obama" instead of the "missing" comma. ;-)
