Democrats are criticizing a 38-year-old man who parked a trailer load of manure across the street from Whitehall's Democratic campaign office to protest presidential hopeful Barack Obama.
Terry Reed, who owns a construction and excavation company in Whitehall, parked the trailer near the office on Saturday. He also posted a sign in the manure mocking Obama's "change we can believe in" slogan as "a load of crap."
"I think Obama's plan is just one big old poop sandwich and we're all going to have to take a bite," he said.
Suzanne Molyneaux, the Obama campaign's election team leader in Whitehall, said traffic came to a near standstill as people stopped to take pictures of the trailer.
"People in Whitehall were upset, they were outraged," she said. "I don't think Whitehall should be represented as this podunk, ignorant community. There are lots of good people here."
Reed said he doesn't plan to move the trailer until after Election Day.
"My only regret is that I didn't do something sooner," he said.

That's awesome.

WHO said Whitehall IS being represented as a podunk, ignorant community, and that there ISN'T lots of good people there?? Those are YOUR words Suzanne (Obama campaign election team leader in Whitehall), so that's obviously what YOU think just because people are laughing and taking pictures of the trailer - AND YOU DON'T LIKE IT.blackeagle603 wrote:This from Butte Montana

It's called 'PROJECTION' you moron, and not everyone (obviously) is so enamored of the man who you'd lick his boots.

I thought it was relatively high-brow.
And may I say, from a moral point of view, I think there can be no justification for shoving snack cakes up your action.

Love the comments on this one. Even though "they" won, they still have no sense of humor.
