Less than a week after a life-size cutout of Barack Obama was found hanging from a tree on the campus of George Fox University, another public display of hatred toward the presidential hopeful appeared in a Southwest Portland neighborhood.
On Sunday morning, Sharon Martini of Bridlemile came across an Obama yard sign with the word “Nigga” spray-painted on it, just steps from the Bridlemile Elementary School playground.
“I saw the sign around 11:45 a.m.,” Martini said Monday. “In fact, it is still there, just not upright. I photographed it this morning laying on the ground."
Martini also discovered “McCain Palin Fuck Obama” written on two play structures at the school, which were painted over by Sunday night before a youth soccer event.

    10 bucks says that this was done by an Obama supporter…

  2. wrnchbndr says:

    Since it was "Nigga" that was written and not the other word I would have to say that one of his bros don’t like him so much!!

  3. Ed says:

    Yeah. "Nigga" is totally acceptable. Nothing offensive about it. It’s just a black thang. Ask any thoroughly enlightened white bread liberal.

  4. Kate says:

    If and when Obama loses the presidential election, it won’t be because he’s black, it will be because of his extreme liberal viewpoints, and his VERY QUESTIONABLE ASSOCIATIONS, I.e. Reverend Wright, Jr., William Ayers, Bernadine Dohrn, The Annenberg Foundation, ACORN, Louis Farrakhan, Father Michael Pfleger, Tony Rezko, Hamas, and Larry Sinclair (with whom he had a drug encounter and two gay sex encounters with Obama about 8 years ago) just to name a few questionable people.

    I agree with what someone said earlier…this vandalism sounds like something Obama’s campaign would do to attempt to generate racial sympathy and thus, votes.

    • EyeKnowYah says:

      What Kate needs to know face is that her association withy a racist Washington society hasn’t been a problem for HER or many other whites over the last three centuries. Now that a man with dark skin is close to the top job, she wants to scream about some bogus racial sensitivity? Yeah… Wright!( and my spelling is right)

  5. EyeKnowYah says:

    Look, it’s clear that Kate’s "association with" the institutional racism of a white, male society hasn’t been a problem. That’s the association which has concerned decent Americans for over three centuries. Now, that a dark skin ( because that’s all it’s about for her) is close to the top job she claims there’s a need for racial sensitivity ALL OF A SUDDEN? yeah… Wright! (and the spelling it right)
