Obama Billboards

Driving around Milwaukee has been irritating for the past few months due to all the Obama propoganda.

For example, eastbound 94, just past Mooreland Rd. there is a union sign spouting unity under his leadership... or some crap like that. I hate seeing it. It instantly dampers my morning commute.

Another example. Getting off the freeway at the 26th street exit, there is a billboard to the upper left. It's not for Obama, but it's liberal. There is a picture of an oil field and a corn field. It says "Their oil fields... our corn fields" and that also makes me grit my teeth as I drive to school.

Those things, as well as all the bumper stickers and listening to talk radio really get me heated, but recently the line has been crossed. Milwaukee has hit a new low, along with the rest of the country.

Clearchannel has posted billboards all around Milwaukee with Obama's face on it. Underneath it reads: "Yes We Can"

Are you kidding me?

I guess since Clearchannel owns the media, they can put whatever they want on their billboards, but it honestly makes me sick. What is it that "we can" do? Ruin the country? Corrupt young minds into thinking that Obama's warped views on public policy are earth shattering and groundbreaking? I mean really.

The best part about it is that Clearchannel owns Newstalk 1130, home of the Conservative voices of this country. As I was listening this morning, Vicki McKenna was saying how she was getting crap at work for making a comment about the billboards, since it was against Clearchannel, the owner of the company she worked for. THank goodness there are good people out there who called the station to say that she wasn't in the wrong.

Not only are the media corporations now endorsing bad politics, but they are trying to censor their own people. Give me a break. What happened to responsible journalism?

I suppose it died along with the belief that Americans can think for themselves and make wise decisions concerning their government and their freedoms.
