An anti-Obama sign in the window of a County Courthouse.

[kentuck]

What do think of this? It's in the far right window ... Is there anything wrong with it??

[NYC_SKP]

1. Yes, there is something wrong with it, IMHO.

And the other window is just as troubling to me.

[BlueCaliDem]

2. I never knew public buildings were allowed to be openly anti-sitting president? eom

[elleng]

3. Not clear, but MUST be removed.

Violates EVERY principle. DEMAND it be removed. And the other one, assuming 'coal' is an issue.

[denverbill]

4. I think using government facilities to promote partisan political positions is generally illegal.

No different from using government computers or government cars.

5. It's a municipal building that eventually

WE all PAY for.

[onenote]

6. Where is this?

[kentuck]

7. The County Court House in Pineville, KY.

SE KY.

Very anti-Obama.

[get the red out]

14. Disgusting

Back in 2008, before my Dad passed away, I used to worry about him living in a small eastern, KY town with Obama stickers on his car. Hell, I worry about having one on my car here in Lexington after all that 'bagger crap.

Bunch of RW propaganda feeders, nearly the whole region.

8. Either poster is wrong if those are public offices

If they are leased out to private attorneys etc, then they can be there unless it violates the terms of the lease.

12. I don't see a flag of the USA .

9. One of our social workers had an Oberstar sign on her bulletin board and was told to take it down. I

think it violates the Hatch Act.

[bluedigger]

10. The Hatch Act should only apply to Federal workers and facilities, I think.

No idea what Kentucky has on the books that would apply.

[orpupilofnature57]

11. If they get Federal Money it applies.

[kentuck]

13. Thanks for the comments.

My sister is going to check it out and see whose office it is?

[proud2BlibKansan]

15. Yes that's illegal.

[SalviaBlue]

16. Wow. That is so wrong.

[MineralMan]

17. No political signs should appear in public buildings.

I'm sure there's a law regarding that.

[kentuck]

18. As updated...

They did take the sign down.

[SoapBox]

19. COOL!

...way to follow up!

20. Not the Bell County Courthouse in Pineville KY; similar, but smaller and no trees (photo)

Bell County Courthouse has pillars, more windows, and trees planted in the walkway.
