"Yet another racist anti-Obama billboard has appeared along our nation’s highways. This time it’s in Colorado and the tea party artist manages to hit a trifecta of racism, homophobia, xenophobia, religious bigotry and outright hate. The billboard, looming above I-70B depicts vile cartoonish caricatures of President Obama, as a homosexual, a Muslim terrorist with bombs strapped to his chest, an illegal Mexican immigrant wearing an oversize sombrero and a pimped out gangster.
Stay classy tea party

I don't know about racist or homophobic, but it sure is stupid. Are they saying that the president is all of those things or that the democrats support all those things? And why make them all look like Obama? The whole thing is kinda silly if you ask me. Come to think of it, so is this thread.

Oh well nice jumping to conclusions OP.
Pathetic.

Still, Snover’s (the billboard artist) political views are well-known. An Internet search of the self-described “constitutionalist libertarian” revealed numerous blog postings in which he talks about his support for tea party and 9/12 groups.
The artist, Paul Snover a local member of the tea party group,
Snover says he was paid $500 by a fellow tea party “patriot” who oppose President Obma

So what?
Plenty of Dems have done terrible things with help from another Dem. According to your logic all Dems need to be blamed (labeled and damned) every time a Dem voter commits a crime or offends a person or group.

Your argument is pathetic.
What's pathetic is that you didn't bother reading the article that links this billboard to tea party types, yet you claim that it is not known who is responsible for this billboard. Nice try, but no cigar.

So a couple of tea party "members" are apparently behind it. So what?
The entire movement or "party" (and there is not one ruling party over all these groups) is not to blame because of a couple people associated with it did something that can be considered distasteful.
If you can't grasp what I said in my last post you are beyond hope.

This is what you said. Either you didn't read the link which you included, or you were unable to comprehend it. Which one is it?
