I Hate Politicians


And here is a good example of why. So we had no knowledge of this billboard going up, and imagine Edgardo's surprise when he sees this a couple miles from the Center. Anne Northup supports Americana Community Center? Who knew?? I sure didn't! But she is using us for her campaign! If you can't read it, it says "Americana Community Center, Another local project sponsored by Anne Northup". Really, it pisses me off. Oh and for those who do not know, she is the Kentucky's current representative in the U.S. congress (and Republican). She has never given us money or really done anything to support us and it would be my guess that most of the policies she supports would hurt us more than help. (and if the Executive Director says she doesn't help us, I am sure he is correct) Where was she when we lost all our funding back in April?? I am not sure what will be done about this false advertisement. I hate election season. I am sick of all these campaign ads. Enough already! I just hate the political system in general I think. We were coming up with a lot of fun ways to protest this billboard at work. One of my favorite options was to replace her name and picture with mine. I think I have done a lot to support Americana Community Center, shouldn't I get a billboard? Or we could simply add a "not" in the appropriate place. Oh we were having so much fun with this.....

Amusing, yet irritating! I agree that you should replace it with your picture.

I just watched "Man of the Year" which was funny because it makes jokes about politics.

I approve of this post. Why shouldn't we all get billboards?
