Things that Endure

Hatred of President Barack Obama isn't going away. A newspaper in Pennsylvania last Thursday took a classified ad from a customer which appeared to call for Obama's assassination. The ad stated:

"May Obama follow in the footsteps of Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley & Kennedy!"

The
Times-Observer, out of Warren, PA, then ran the ad in one issue! Scores of readers called to complain, and the local chief of police contacted the Feds. The newspaper has since issued an apology and said that the identity of the person who placed the ad was known to the authorities.

Morons. Perhaps my opening sentence should have read: "Hatred of
President Barack Obama expressed recklessly and with no apparent forethought of serious consequences isn't going away." Above image is from a recent exhibition.
