Ad In Clarendon Metro Station: ‘Go To Hell Barack’
| A Democratic lawmaker is speaking out against an inflammatory ad in the Clarendon Metro station that tells President Obama to “go to hell.”
The lighted ad, located near the end of one of platforms, promotes a DVD documentary called “Sick and Sicker: When the Government Becomes Your Doctor,” which sharply criticizes President Obama’s health care reform law and compares it to publicly-funded health care in Canada. “Barack Obama wants politicians and bureaucrats to control America’s entire medical system,” the ad reads. “Go to hell Barack.” The Democratic blog Blue Virginia first reported the ad this morning. It’s been in place at the Clarendon Metro station since at least last week, based on a search of Twitter posts. “This advertisement is inappropriate, disrespectful of the President, and should be removed immediately,” Moran said in a letter to the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority. “The families with children and thousands of tourists who take Metro everyday should not be subjected to such garbage. I understand WMATA vets these advertisements before allowing them to go up, but it seems someone wasn’t doing their job when this ad was approved.” It’s unclear if the ad has been placed in any other Metro stations. |

EE, you’re forgetting where this sign is. Its in the DC Metro system. The only thing those folks are “attracted” to is something that’s free! Gotta slap ’em upside the head and rattle some IQ into their kool-aid drinking selves. Maybe that will wak ’em up!
While I agree with the sentiment, probably not the best way to attract supporters. Have to show the value of conservative policies which Obama would never implement.
jimbo moran is a moron.
