I posted the above early this morning and thought I'd post some more now that I have a few minutes. The creative, pithy and spot-on politically astute signs in Madison are too wonderful not to share. Enjoy. I'll try to somehow make my whole collection (400+ so far) available.






















And this, perhaps a small symbol of what makes Madison "Madison".

1. While I love the backlash against the Repukes,

Some of those signs have to many words.

[KansDem]

4. Yeah, and one of them's in French!

:scared:

[flakey_foont]

7. but at least they're spelled correctly

unlike some groups, whom I could name

[pacalo]

10. It just goes to show how much the protesters have to say about the injustice going on.

[Drale]

11. I suppose so but

if your trying to get people to read your signs, you have to make them short and sweet so that people driving or riding by can read them and understand them.

[Scuba]

12. There's no driving by.... this is all foot stuff, the square filled with People....

...and all entrances blocked off by our Union and union-friendly police. Plenty of time to read the signs.

15. i read them all

and loved it.

2. Look at those grinning union thugs!

They're having a good time.

Not especially thug-y in appearance, though.

3. Love that Car!!!!!!!!!!!

[Blue Owl]

5. Time for a little Spring Cleaning

C'mon Wisconsin -- THROW OUT the ROTTEN GARBAGE currently stinking up your otherwise great state.

6. I want that Beetle!

Love the "Raging Grannies"! :rofl:

Thanks, scuba!

:yourock:

8. The Raging Grannies are a favorite of many. Singing protest songs...

...and denying the false image of "union thugs". They're awesome.

14. Fantastic! On Wisconsin!

[QED]

16. One of the Wisconsin Rep. State Senators said the protesters

who took over the capitol were college students. These folks don't look like college students. These photos need to get out - these are "normal" people that anyone could relate to.

[Scuba]

17. That would by my Senator , Glen Grothman. He said we....

...were just a bunch of silly college kids having fun.

I collected 70 signatures for his recall today. That was fun!!!

[QED]

19. Good for you

He was the most disgusting piece o'crap I've heard during this outrageous Koched up budget crisis.
