Billboard displays burning World Trade Center with slogan, 'Please Don't Vote for a Democrat'
Unfucking believable...

A political billboard in St. Cloud, Florida reads "Please Don't Vote for a Democrat" over an image of the burning World Trade Center.

Businessman Mike Meehan, who paid for the ad, says he's "only trying to help Republicans." The billboard also carries a link for Meehan's website, TheRepublicanSong.com, at which he says, "I claim to be a man of God" and promotes his political song and video.

Meehan's song, which appears to have racist overtones, begins, "The Democrat secular progressive move, political correctness is killing us too. They want to take the money from the hard working man, and give it to the lazy folks that don't give a damn."

1. Mike Meehan...
...is such a god awful stupid fuck that he doesn't remember 9/11 happened on Bush's watch. And rather than securing our airlines, and pursuing security, Bush squandered the little political capital he had on getting kickbacks for friends and family.

I know it's not politically correct for me to say this, but Mike Meehan needs to lose his right to vote. That or be stuffed into the luggage compartment of a very short bus headed over a very tall cliff.

2. Someone need to modify these bill boards with "Or we will do it again.:
"A political billboard in St. Cloud, Florida reads "Please Don't Vote for a Democrat" over an image of the burning World Trade Center." OR WE WILL DO IT AGAIN!

At the very least 9/11 was a LIHOP. For those that think(?) otherwise, then why did the government stop or impede any and all proper investigation in to what really happened?

We had the sympathy of the world right after it happened. The bu$h administration squandered that. Instead of using the resources of the rest of the world to track down and capture the guilty in a cooperative police action, bu$h lied us into a bungled war in an Innocent 3rd world country whose cost will haunt us, US for generations. This war has gone on longer and has cost more than WWII and this administration has shown very little initiative in ending that war.

5. Meehan is one truly twisted right winger. Check out the "song" on his website..
This guy's spreading hate about the antiquated stereotype of the welfare-loving "lib'rul." And when he uses lyrics like "lazy folks that don't give a damn," whom do you think he has in mind?

This uber-flag-waving,nationalistic nutcase can go to hell. :grr:

Some of the lyrics from his song, "Please Don’t Vote For a Democrat":

The Democrat secular progressive move,
political correctness is killing us too.
They want to take the money from the hard workin man,
and give it to the lazy folks that don't give a damn. :puke:

Now we're trying to win a war and wipe out the terrorists,
We're not fightin for oil we got plenty if we drill it.
But the liberals and the media are spreading their lies,
Get the hell out of our way and let our soldiers fight. :puke:

Republicans, we're not perfect but we know the truth
We uphold the Constitution and the Golden Rule.
We believe a mans freedom is a God given right,
the USA is the beacon to the whole world in sight.:puke:

6. I will just say
I'd been on road trips to everywhere but CA,HI, and Florida. In 2006 I decided to drive down to Florida, and I couldn't get back out of there fast enough (apology and sympathy to anyone 'normal' who may live there'.

7. I Saw An Ad The Other Night Cashing In...Franklin Mint
They were offering a "commemorative coin"...showing WTC on one side and the supposed "Liberty Tower" (have they finally broken ground???) on the other. The announcer kept pouring it on about that "fateful day" and all the "innocent lives" and so on...and you, too, could have a piece of this disaster for only $29.95. Order Now.

9/11 has turned from a rally cry into a date of shame. We remember the Maine cause we won that war...the same for Pearl Harbor. The 9/11 killers remain in business and in the past 7 years we've learned about wholescale incompetance by our government...who wants to remember anything favorable?

8. "I believe 9/11 could have been prevented
if we'd had a Republican president at the time,"

Meehan said Wednesday on CNN's "American Morning."

Is he unbelievably stupid or really really clever?
