the office and whoever was dumb enough to put it up in the first place damned near broke a hip running to get it out of the window before someone higher up found out about it.

I'm a disabled women veteran and needed some help from the local veterans outreach guy, so I visited the local office in Milford, PA. Inside the man's office are anti-Obama signs. I voiced my opinion to him, told him I felt very uncomfortable with these signs and I think he should take them down. His response was I'll do whatever I want to do, this is after all a free country. I contacted the public affairs office at the VA hospital in Scranton PA, I was told because this was not a government building they couldn't do anything. I don't know....Help please?
