But I support the right of whoever did that to do so, as long as they aren't littering or creating a nuisance.

I'm in Three Rivers--and there's a total of one guy with a Romney sign. There are no Warren or Obama signs--it's like the whole town heard there was an election and went "Yeah, fuck that".

I saw one in fromt of my local post office, as well as outside the grocery store... from what I understand, they were all over the place the, and I suspect they will be around a lot in the next 6 1/2 weeks.

Don't startle them. They attack with little provocation. And they've been around forever.

Anyway, there's something ironic about LaRouchies equating anyone else to Hitler, considering that their leader once reportedly claimed that Jews were a different type of life form than humans, and that, for humanity to survive, Jews would have to be eliminated.

16. A cashier at a store I once frequented was a LaRouche fan. She gave me a couple of booklets.

This was back in 1997-98 by the way.

Anyhow, she gave me a couple of these booklet things to read, and spent a couple of minutes as she rang up my purchase explaining to me how great Mr. LaRouche was. Being amenable to third parties, I was impressed and hopeful as I walked home with my groceries...and booklets. Something about "A New Breton Woods".

I started reading this literature, and I swear on the graves of myself and my entire freaking family that it was like falling down the rabbit hole. Nothing but a bunch of long sentences and paragraphs which barely even made sense if you were lucky.

After a few days of repeated attempts to make sense of it all, using it as bathroom reading material, I tossed the booklets out. I also did my best to steer conversation with my health food store acquaintance away from LaRouche.

So I did a little bit of research on him, and if it were possible to find a bigger douche bag on the planet then Romney it's Lyndon Larouche. How could this clown ever have had a D next to his name? With his position on the environment. Claiming such outrageous things as DDT was not harmful to the environment. An extreme enemy of labor going as far as creating an organization to pretend to be allies of unions, but in reality their agenda was to stir up trouble among union leaders. He ran for President 7 times, and if this fool were ever elected he would've had us in a war with Britain. His political followers were, and still are nothing more than a cult.

I am voting for my republican congress critter just to make sure the LaRouche candidate doesn't win. Pete Olson and I agree on very little, but at least he isn't posting pictures like that along our highway - but the LaRouche candidate does. If you doubt me, please take a look at her website: http://kesharogers.com/

It makes you wonder who is funding them.

every couple of weeks in my town too. They used to show up with a picture of W as Hitler too. I wonder if they'll have Hilary as Hitler in 2016? By the way, if they show up in your town, ask them if Lyndon enjoyed his time in federal prison. These are the original tin foil hat people!
