Billboard displaying burning twin towers reads ‘please don’t vote for a Democrat.’
A billboard on display in Orange County, Florida shows the World Trade Center towers burning while telling passers-by: “Please Don’t Vote for a Democrat.” The local ABC News affiliate reports that the person responsible is a local musician “trying to help Republicans” but that “officials with both political parties are calling the billboard inappropriate.”

GOPigs, the party of stupidity, fear, and arseholes.
July 15th, 2008 at 12:56 pmWho needs terrorists when we have Republicans?
July 15th, 2008 at 12:57 pmGreat graphic. Completely contradicts the intended message.
I love it.
July 15th, 2008 at 12:58 pmAnd 9/11 occurred on which party’s watch>? After which party ignored the warnings given by the previous administration of which party?
Wrong.
Wrong.
Wrong.
July 15th, 2008 at 12:58 pmCan we start calling them WrongPublicans?
Wow - check out these craptastic rhymes:
July 15th, 2008 at 12:58 pm“And 9/11 occurred on which party’s watch? After which party ignored the warnings given by the previous administration of which party?”
It just boggles my mind…
July 15th, 2008 at 12:59 pmClassy.
Republicans know they got nothin’ left to run on, so they appeal to the lizard brain.
July 15th, 2008 at 12:59 pmJust disgusting. Really, I’m at a loss for words.
Do these idiots not remember that a REPUBLICAN was PRESIDENT WHEN THAT HAPPENED?
Oh wait, they probably watched path to 9/11, did no research on their own, and took DISNEY’s take on world events as gospel.
The good news is that anyone who takes that ridiculous billboard seriously was never voting Democratic in the first place. It will only appeal to the 20%-mouthbreathing-knuckledragging-intelligent-design-believing-piss-soaked-fear-junkies.

July 15th, 2008 at 1:03 pmLooking at his home page, it’s safe to assume he’s single, with an outfit like that.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:03 pmOnce again the vile reich-wing attempts to use 9/11 for political gain. Reich-wingers are desperate.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:04 pmTruly stupefying. They are now trying to conflate 9/11 with the Democratic Party, hoping that their audience will somehow “misremember” their history and believe that this happened when Democrats were in office.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:06 pmSame background on the billboard, but:
Republican President
July 15th, 2008 at 1:07 pmRepublican-controlled Congress
‘Nuff Said!
Let this racist pig know how you feel. Remind him 911 was on Bush’s watch. He’s his e-mail.
pleasedontvoteforademocrat@yahoo.com
July 15th, 2008 at 1:07 pmRemember 9/11:
happened under a REPUBLICAN (court-appointed) PREZ and a REPUBLICAN CONTROLLED CONGRESS.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:08 pmFirst thought on viewing the billboard was: Shameless Republicans Suck.
Wasn’t that the intent?
July 15th, 2008 at 1:08 pmSo, Bush recieved a memo that said, “Bin Laden determined to strike the United States.” He did nothing. They struck, and it is the Democrats fault? Does anyone else have some trouble following this reasoning?
July 15th, 2008 at 1:09 pmMaybe I’m missing something, but wasn’t there a Republican president and Republican controlled congress when the twin towers were attacked?
July 15th, 2008 at 1:09 pm9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11
BE AFRAID. VOTE REPUBLICAN.
Experimentation, this might get screwed up and not work. If it does, I’m surprised we haven’t seen this somewhere yet.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:10 pmOn the other hand, this is going to be a pretty pathetic campaign for the Repubs if this is all they have in their toolbox. They might as well have nominated Giuliani.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:10 pmIt must be getting pretty bad when they’re reduced to begging people to not vote for their opponents.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:11 pmI’d say that’s a very defensive position.
A ‘playing not to lose’ and hoping to get a win dumped in their lap attitude.
“Please Don’t Vote for a Democrat.” . . . because God knows an attack like 9/11 would never happen on a Republican President’s watch . . . . . oops …
Just saying . . .
July 15th, 2008 at 1:11 pmeh, you can see what I was going for…
July 15th, 2008 at 1:11 pmThat billboard sums up the 21st century Republican Party:
(1) Politicize a national catastrophe;
(2) Which happened on the Republicans’ watch;
(3) Try to market your crappy music by listing your web site.
The fact that the guy has no musical talent whatsoever is just icing on the cake.

July 15th, 2008 at 1:11 pmAnyone in Orange County have a paintball gun?
Use it first on the billboard, but save a couple of balls for that pus-gut redneck POS.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:12 pmYou don’t have to be dumb to be a Republican but it helps.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:13 pmWell, missmolly, I guess they figured it worked with Saddam, why not try it with their OTHER enemy, the Democratic Party?
July 15th, 2008 at 1:13 pmYeah, its safer to build oil rigs in the sea than building skyscrapers. Read yourself: Bush features offshore drilling. I guess its totally free of any involvement into his old business. Wait….. what was it again? The oil business?!!! Such a freaaaaaking coincidence.
http://ccoaler.blogspot.com/ 2008/ 07/ bush-mentions-offshore-drilling.html
NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) — Under the backdrop of a deteriorating economic picture, President Bush said Tuesday he is taking action to help people with falling home values and high gas prices.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:13 pmBush highlighted plans to stabilize the mortgage lenders Fannie Mae (FNM, Fortune 500) and Freddie Mac (FRE, Fortune 500) and lift the ban on offshore oil drilling as two steps his administration is taking to address some of the nation’s economic ills.
I wonder what the reaction would be if the billboard had the exact same graphics, but said “Please don’t vote for a Republican”? I imagine that the Republican Party would call it offensive, inflammatory, exploitative, and unfair — even though they WERE in charge when that tragedy happened.
And they’d be right.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:13 pmNo matter what the Republicans say, Democrats were not responsible for the attacks of 9/11. This billboard is disgusting, nauseating, and deeply offensive to anyone from New York. The truly sad part is that too many Americans believe the crap like this that the right wing is spewing.
If you love your country, you won’t ever let the Republicans control it again.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:14 pm….if you do there won’t be another attack?
How does one conclude that the attack on 09/11/2001 was the fault of the party not in power? republicans seem to believe that everything is the democrats’ fault, regardless of facts or history, so that’s really what it comes down to.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:14 pmAnother Republican shows how truly disgusting their tactics are. They feel the only way to gain anything is through fear, hatred, & distortion.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:14 pmOrange County, soooo elitist…
July 15th, 2008 at 1:15 pmVt is a nice place. You’ll never see this dumb shit there
July 15th, 2008 at 1:15 pmA desperate man takes desperate measures for a desperate party.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:15 pmMaybe someone should put up a competing “Don’t Vote For A Republic” billboard showing a gas pump at $ 4.50 a gallon, along with a foreclosure sign and a toxic waste dump.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:15 pmListen TrippleHick, the leadership has been most Republican since 9/11. Where’s Osama?

July 15th, 2008 at 1:16 pm9/11 happened on the watch of a Republican President, Republican Congress, Republican governor of NY, and Republican Mayor of NYC, who decided, against advice, to put emergency services headquarters in the WTC (which had already been bombed once) instead of in a secure location in Brooklyn.
But “don’t vote for a Democrat”.
These guys must go through an awful lot of underdrawers.

And he’s going to vote for McCain.
Again, this is FLA people, birthplace of the American redneck.

The New York Mayor was a Republican. The New York Governor was a Republican.
But as usual the “Party of Personal Responsibility” will turn around and blame everything on the Democrats just like Bush yesterday and today with oil drilling and the economy.
The only damn president who says: “I can’t waive a magic wand” to lower gas prices but I can violate the Constitution and like MC Hammer: “You can’t touch this.”
July 15th, 2008 at 1:17 pmFunny, that billboard doesn’t work with the word Democrat….thinking people know that the correct word should be “Republican”!

Do the repukes think We the People are that stupid to fall for such a simplistic idiotic billboard? This should insult many… even the gopers.

July 15th, 2008 at 1:14 pm
Not true for several reasons. First of all, the Democrats did have a plan for dealing with terrorism. Once they determined that bin laden was responsible for the bombing of the USS Cole, the Democrats put together an appropriate response and, because it was late in December and they didn’t want to start a war right before leaving (which we all know Bush intends to do), they handed the plan off to the Republicans who did……nothing. Until 9/11. Then they started doing pretty much everything in that plan.
And besides, the Democrats aren’t the ones in charge of the country, so why do you conservatives insist that they must be the ones to come up with a plan? Is it because you know the “plan” the Republicans have been using will never work (Shoot first, think later)?
And secondly, Americans do not vote for a Commander-in-Chief. We vote for a President, who has the additional duty of being the C-in-C of the Armed Forces. If you think you are voting for a military leader, then you must think we live in a military police state.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:20 pmNo wonder this “musician” has to advertise on billboards, he sucks…

I guess pledging to reduce troop levels in Iraq in accordance with their leaders desires, sending more troups to fight the growing threat in Afghanistan and going after Bin Laden is a bad plan. It truly would be best to keep fueling the hatred and wait forever for political reconcilliation in Iraq. Hey maybe we could further stretch our military and foment more anti-American hatred by attacking Iran! Jeez what a maroon! Is Dribbles actually Michael O’Hanlon?

July 15th, 2008 at 1:27 pmProgressives don’t ‘ban’ things we disagree with. Progressives turn the attention back onto the facts and issues - you know, the way adults would.
The best way to continue the self-destruction of the republican brand is to give them as much rope as they request. They will surely hang themselves. Our best opportunity is to let America see the GOP the way we see them: criminal, unpatriotic, racist, authoritarians.

You’ll be happy to know Beech views this as a “free speech” issue, so if any of you have the $$$ to counter, perhaps they’ll be open to your “free speech” as well.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:29 pmIgnore CrippledHick, just as he ignores reality.
The last sensible thing that came from his mouth was when he asked his mom to change his shorts because he’d soiled them again.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:30 pmIt’s been SEVEN YEARS since 9/11 and still, no bin laden. Instead, all the reich-wing leadership can do is constantly criticize the Democratic plans and strategy while not offering any sensible alternative. That’s exactly why reich-wing are seen as soft on terror.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:30 pmOK dick’s tricklingdischarge:
I’ll lay one on you. If you have one last vestige of intellectual curiosity and do seek the truth, then I encourage you to watch the Zeitgeist movie. Just do the google on it, it’s somewhere in the tubes. Specifically, watch the segment on 9-11.
Of course, that is if you are of the type that likes to expand your horizon’s beyond the obvious dribble you’ve been brainwashed by.

In case you haven’t noticed, a Republican have been in the White house for those 7 years, had a Republican majority in the House for 6 of those years, and we are getting our buts kicked in Afghanistan ( where Bin Laden and Al Qaeda really is ).
But then you are a dumbass Republican yourself, so we cannot expect much in the way of critical thinking from your ilk.

That’s the thing about free speech — others are free to judge when someone says something stupid.

Hi 007 James Bond!
July 15th, 2008 at 1:32 pmNo disrespect intended but what is up with that monniker? Stupid Japanese cinema monsters got nothing on that…
9/11 occurred and went unpunished with a reich-wing president and a reich-wing majority in the House and Senate. Fact.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:32 pmTrying this again, darn moderators…
Hey 007 James D0uche,
You’re a freaking troll doing the tired old “I’m a Progressive!” routine. We’ve seen it before, you don’t fool anyone. In fact, I think I recognize your tone, you are Progress Rocks, or whoever.
You suck, and that’s sad. Come to terms with it, you’ll be much better off.
Seriously, give up and go do something else, no one gives a sh!t about you.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:34 pm“I was a US Navy enlisted recruiter (E-5, known as “Petty Officer Second Class”) between’99 and ‘02, which you will likely remember includes 9/11/01. I personally enlisted over 200 young men and women into service for the US Navy, both before and after the attacks on 9/11. I was reminded by your billboard that there is no level to which our countrymen will not stoop to make political points, or, more to the point, a dollar. It’s unfortunate that what I saw as a unifying moment in our nation’s history, you saw as a good ad copy. Our enemies in Al Qaeda have outright stated in their own propaganda that they intend to drive our nation into chaos, by miring us in an unwinnable war and driving wedges between our people. It saddens me to see your propaganda, catering to exactly that latter portion.
As a former serviceman, I must also take exception to your violation of the US Flag Code, to wit Section 176, which states: “(i) The flag should never be used for advertising purposes in any manner whatsoever,” as well as “(j) No part of the flag should ever be used as a costume or athletic uniform.” While I can understand that your particular brand of feigned patriotism in the service of your chosen career necessitates that you “wrap yourself in the flag,” I cannot understand why someone so securely ensconced in that feigned patriotism would not carry the facade to its natural conclusion, and treat the flag with the respect you fail to show your countrymen.
You, sir, may be a musician, but if you are a patriot it is only to sell your song. I commend you for your free market approach, but I cannot condone your lack of respect for the flag on which that free market stands. How would you react to someone burning a flag in front of you? Or perhaps wiping their face on a US Flag having eaten a big meal? I feel much the same, I imagine, seeing that flag wrapped around your girth in support of your attack on your countrymen. In case you have not heard, sir, it was not Democrats who attacked the World Trade Center on 9/11/01. Indeed, a Democratic outgoing president (Bill Clinton, the 42nd president) specifically warned a Republican incoming (George W. Bush, the 43rd president) that Al Qaeda would be his number one concern. If you must place the blame for violence committed against our countrymen on Americans, why not place it on those who were in power when the attack was being planned, and who did nothing to prevent it? Or perhaps on those, like yourself, who have not ceased to capitalize on it?”

That’s exactly why democrats are seen as soft on terror.
This poster seems to think that by wanting to keep the Constitution and Bill of Rights intact, democrats are ’soft on terror”. I’d like to know just what that means - soft on terror. If being hard on terror got us to this place, then maybe being soft is a better alternative. Your way sucks.
Bin laden still around. no convictions from the sham trials and torture. ME in flames, Gas at $5.00 a gallon, inflation up, jobs down, soldiers over-stretched, recruiting 50 year old men, stock market down, etc…It doesn’t seem like your side has actually done anything for the American people.

July 15th, 2008 at 1:35 pmExcellent email, bkarasek.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:35 pmWouldn’t terrorists vote for the party in power during the worst terrorist attack in US history? If terrorists could vote, wouldn’t they vote republican? Osama Bin Laden must be so happy about all that.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:36 pmOh and that’s really cute James, how you imply that Progressives and Democrats want America to lose it’s fight in Afghanistan just because we are fact-oriented and said that indeed we ARE losing at the moment due to W’s mismanagment.
Really, it’s cute.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:36 pmNot quite, Matt. The American people were punished with seven years of war and the looting of our treasury.
Mission Accomplished!
July 15th, 2008 at 1:36 pmSad thing is, this will probably work. We can argue logic all we want, but the Shock Doctrine continues to pay benefits. How do we stop it is my question?
July 15th, 2008 at 1:36 pmYou’re delusional, Triplekick. First of all, do you think for even a second that if any Democrat went up to the White House and said, “President Bush, I have a foolproof plan to defeat terrorism throughout the world,” that Bush would even listen? I doubt it. It was never their place or responsibility to come up with a plan, so why do you berate them for not doing so? The only thing that makes sense is that you see the current plan as a colossal failure and you wish there was something else, even if it came from a Democrat.
That’s exactly why democrats are seen as soft on terror.
Apart from being just another Republican lie, they’ve been throwing that one around since long before 9/11. So your logic is flawed. Conservatives (the political side that stupid people often flock to) have always said that, even when there wasn’t any factual basis on which to make the claim.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:37 pmJames Bond,

July 15th, 2008 at 1:42 pmNo true Progressive or true Democrat wants American losses ANYWHERE. The ONLY reason that a loss in Afghanistan or Iraq might be politically helpful to Democrats is because REPUBLICANS are the ones managing things (and I use that word very loosely). It shows what morons they really are, that they can’t be trusted to run anything.
Afghanistan was actually JUSTIFIED. That’s where Al Qaeda, the people who actually attacked us, were hiding.
Iraq was NEVER justified. There were NO WMD’s. Saddam was NOT a threat to the United States. Saddam had NO connection to 9/11. Iraq was about nothing more than feeding the military industrial complex. Iraq has been nothing but beneficial to OBL and AQ.

On November 5th we’ll wake up with Democrats controlling 2 of the 3 branches of government and after 8 years of Obama, hopefully the Supreme Court will return to the 21st century instead of the 19th.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:43 pmWhat the fck is up with DribbleDick?
I love it. A catastrophic failure to prevent American deaths falls directly on the president, who happens to be Republican.
A Republican controlled government for 4 years does absolutely nothing to resolve the issues of terrorism. In fact, it starts an unnecessary “war” that kills thousands of more Americans, as well as hundreds of thousands of Iraqis. The economy is in the $hits due to a Republican lead government, and when a Democrats due gain barely a leadership almost 2 years ago, the Republicans do nothing but filibuster. BUT, it’s the Democrats who’ve failed to have a plan the last 7 years.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Typical! This administration can never take the blame for anything. We sure as hell wouldn’t want the a$$ licking followers like DribbleDick to counter them, now would we????
July 15th, 2008 at 1:43 pmProgressive James Bond:
So this is why Republicans are more trustworthy than Democrats? Because you can’t even be real about what you really think? Because you steal other people’s names and commit intellectual fraud by making it seem like they are saying things they are not?

Give it up, KILL YOURSELF if you want to talk about killing people. It will be the most useful thing you’ve ever done.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:44 pmIt seems a strange situation when the topic here is a serious one. The folks I know and admire, come to the debate with facts and valid points of view. The newbies show up and throw sh!t at everything. They don’t discuss the actual topic, they toss out the daily talking points and believe they have the upper hand. That is the problem when your facts all come from Fox news - you think you have achieved something, but in fact have only shown yourself to be a fool.
I would think that pure self-respect would keep them from displaying their juvenile positions and insults - but again, they believe they are the knowlegable ones. Within their small group of bed-wetters, they just might be the smart ones. In the wide open world, they are woefully uninformed and inadequate.
Try impressing us with facts - real facts - for a change.

July 15th, 2008 at 1:49 pmIf you’d like to argue that the Republican’s plan for dealing with terrorism is more ambitiously assertive than Democrats, I’d agree. But unfortunately it’s been a completely counterproductive, destructive, costly, misguided plan.
You’re damn right the Democrats are criticizing. Perhaps the Dems have lost sight of the pinata. But the Repubs have for too long been crazily swinging a bat all over the place, hitting everything but the target.

No worries though, the voters know which party takes defeating terrorism seriously.

3) Expect most boat yards to not have the part you need

Truly stupefying. They are now trying to conflate 9/11 with the Democratic Party, hoping that their audience will somehow “misremember” their history and believe that this happened when Democrats were in office.
That’s ok, Bush was on the radio this morning saying that the poor economy is the Democrats fault. Up is down, black is white, everything that comes out of a Republican’s mouth is a load of crap. The good news is that a majority of the people in this country finally get it.
July 15th, 2008 at 2:01 pmYou have to admire the cognitive dissonance of which the right is not only capable, but proud.
1) We have been “winning” a war for seven years, without yet having won it.
2) Our war on terror has been so unsuccessful that you must be so afraid of terrorists that we must continue to wage our war on terror.
July 15th, 2008 at 2:02 pm“Its been SEVEN YEARS since 911 and still, no plan from democrats. Instead, all the democratic leadership can do is constantly criticize the republican strategy while not offering any alternative. That’s exactly why democrats are seen as soft on terror.”
What Republican strategy are you refering to? Posting billboards to illicite fear? Democratic leadership has a GREAT plan; get out or Iraq (which had nothing to do with 9-11 by the way…)

“They can have their opinion. It’s a free country, if they want to pay for the ad. I’m sure it’s expensive,” resident Louis Champeau told Eyewitness News.
The company that owns the billboard, Beech Outdoor Advertising, views it as a fundamental first amendment issue and for that reason wouldn’t censor the ad. The billboard will be up until after the November election….
Hmm… I seem to remember MoveOn getting censured by Congress for expressing their fundamental first amendment rights. I guess the first amendment only applies if you’re a republican’t.

Compare that to what President George W. Bush said on Sept 11, 2001:
“We will make no distinction between the terrorists who committed these acts and those who harbor them.”
Now compare those facts with the constitution:
Article III, Section 3, Clause 1:
Clause 1: Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.
Now, you tell me which party supports Treason, and which party wants to keep us safe?
July 15th, 2008 at 2:14 pmherr dubyah has the lowest approval rating of any president in history. That explains it all. And, don’t forget:

July 15th, 2008 at 2:15 pmActually, Triplekick, the war in Iraq continues because the president refuses to sign any budgets that don’t fund it. BTW, do you believe that the president is allowed to raise and support his own armies, separate from the ones that Congress raises?
July 15th, 2008 at 2:16 pmThat’s cute, especially your name, little guy.
Did you forget that the Congressional approval rating applies to the REPUBLICANS in Congress as well?
Did you forget that the REASON nothing is getting done is every hearing, every bill, every EVERYTHING the Dems try to do the Republicans just block, filibuster, whine, cry etc etc?
Did you forget that one of the reasons WHY the approval rating is so low is that Americans want the Iraq War to END, which is why Dems were put in charge in 06?
July 15th, 2008 at 2:18 pmSo don’t vote for a Democrat….9/11 happened on a REPUBLIC WATCH….they KNEW in advance that it was going to happen and did NOTHING to stop it.

All people have to do is look at how the Democratic ran congress is working.What is the Congressional approval rating up to now? 8% WOW that explaines it all.
The number one reason for this is the dis-satisfaction the American people have because Congress won’t begin impeachment proceedings. In addition, the dis-satisfaction is due to the bowing to the preznit at all times, and in all ways (FISA).
Don’t worry your little head about any of this adult stuff. We will take care of the blue dogs and the DINO’s in our own way and in our own time.

2) Get used to it. Your party will be the minority voice for a LONG time after what W has wrought.

Your delusional POS Bush took his eye off the terrorists in Afghanistan and invaded Iraq for his own selfish ego. We are creating more terrorists than we kill. But pathetic dumbfcks like you are too stupid to think for yourselves and realize it.
