Super-Sized Stupid

Yes, that’s an actual McCain campaign sign photographed by Matt Stoller. Out here in Pennsyltucky, there are McCain signs all over the damn place — of all sizes. The funny thing is, yard signs don’t really work. And while McCain’s ground game (??) has clearly wasted its time and limited finances on yard signs, Senator Obama’s ground game is busy registering voters and collecting cellphone numbers for GOTV.

    I disagree about yard signs not really working. Whenever I see a McCain yard signin someone’s yard(which is rare here in RI)….I immediately doubt the sanity of that person.

    I wish I had a stupid-big Obama sign like that. I’d put it in my back yard that only faces the redneck bastard’s 5 acres and who turned in all 7 of my extended family dogs living here at the time–that nasty economy did that–when only one was a barker, and the sweetest barker in the world. Bastard. Now my babies have mark one-of-three that precede the death penalty around here and weren’t even guilty. The sign would also block off what little space isn’t filled with every tree and shrub I’ve been able to put along the chain-link fence on our property line.

    Ouch Cactusgal thats harsh but funny lolHere in real americ.. I mean rascist americ.. eerr I couldn’t agree with them more Kentucky… There are actually very few McCain signs. There is however 1,000s of local and state campaign signs.

    You’re right JM, that was waaay harsh.Crowley probably goes commando, and I should have said that sign LOOKS ABOUT the size of what MIGHT BE tattooed on her ass. I have no empirical knowledge.My apologies to Ms. Crowley and her blow hole.

    damn….that’s pretty fucking raw cactusgal. Though I do loathe Candy Crowley.And please, please never mention ‘Candy Crowley’ and ‘commando’ in the same sentence. Ridding my mind of that horror is going to take a lot of whiskey…uhhh (shudder)…

  • cactusgal

    What do you want from me, people?I can only apologize so much for any unintended disrespect of Crowley’s unmentionables, which I suppose I shouldn’t have mentioned in such easily offended company such as Bob’s GODDAMN Awesome Blog.And while we’re on the subject of causing offense, watch your fucking language, Ari, and ease up on the hootch.

    That plastic will end up in some runoff strangling some poor waterfowl, no doubt.

    Here’s a way that yard signs DO work. When I travel through northern Wisconsin and see one outside a business (yes, they actually do that there), I know not to shop there.

    Its not the disrespect that bothers me. She is certainly worthy of that. Its the the mental images…

    There are a bunch of homemade Obama banners on display here in the D.C. area that are painted on tarpaulins, king-sized sheets, you name it. I mean, they’re huuuuuge. And what’s especially nice about the image you posted, Paula, is that nobody can carry it off…
