I caught this story on the Ed show this evening. An owner of a car dealership in a suburb just outside of Denver put up the following billboard:
Okay, first of all, the nouns don’t match. Obama is the president, but a person can’t be a jihad. A jihad is a religious war. He could be a jihadist, I guess, but Obama’s not really very religious. Bush was probably more of a jihadist. He thought God told him to invade Iraq. It was probably more like the nuts who claim to have seen UFOs, though. Those stories always begin with “we were sitting on the front porch drinking beer…”
But back to the billboard. Okay, the creator of the billboard, Jeff Wolf, believes Obama is a religious nut and he doesn’t believe our president was born in the U.S. But what’s the reference to the Ft. Hood shooting. The billboard reads “WAKE UP AMERICA! REMEMBER FT. HOOD” Is he blaming Obama for the Ft. Hood shootings? Sure, why not? Right-wingers are blaming Obama for the failed economy, the enormous federal debt, the two wars, and who knows what else. Why not blame him for the Ft. Hood shootings?
“I think the sign’s great. It’s showing what is true,” a right-winger commented. Hmmmm… Obviously a Glenn Beckite.
“I believe in it enough. I believe in America enough that I think it’s worth the risk,” Wolf said.
Evidently, Wolf believes in America enough to spread lies, rumors, and innuendos about our president. What a noble American! I don’t think I’d buy a car from this guy.
