Reviewing yard signs 5 months later

I have not played with this blog for nearly 5 months.

It is sad to see the Dow Jones Industrials down so severely and so predictably.

I had hoped when I wrote the yard signs that I was being a pessimist. Unfortunately, I was not so fortunate. Jobs are disappearing. Taxes are likely to go up. Businesses are closing.

Still, "No one expects the Spanish Inquisition!"

Video of a Florida Reporter Asking Real Questions

Video of Florida Reporter
This is one of the best interview question sets I have ever seen.

The most interesting part of Biden is how angry his face gets as he offers completely worthless but predictable answers.

Idea of site

The idea of this site is to post phrases (5-7 word max) for single signs or a punchy phrases like the old Burma-Shave style for a series of roadside signs.

Obama is pushing communist and socialist philosophies and trying to claim Reagan's mantle at the same time.

If we have a bumper-sticker understanding of politics in this country, we need to teach about Obama with a bumper-sticker attitude.
