Anti-Obama ad: 'Go to hell Barack'

[El Supremo]

WASHINGTON - An anti-Obama Care ad at a Virginia Metro station has drawn the ire of a Congressman.

Rep. Jim Moran wrote Metro a letter asking the transit agency to remove an ad attacking the health reform law and telling President Barack Obama to "Go to hell."

The ad is for a movie called "Sick & Sicker."

"This advertisement is inappropriate, disrespectful of the president and should be removed immediately," Moran said. "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."

The ad is protected by the Constitution, Metro said in a statement Wednesday afternoon....

1. I am sure they would have run a "Fuck George Bush" ad...

they are such ardent First Amendment supporters. Right?

2. Guerilla marketing

More people are going to see this piece of shit film because of the attention a single poster in a subway gets.

3. Sports stars, entertainers and political figures are fair game; but poor form is poor form.

I don't approve of actions like this but as a BMW with an occupie licence plate might get a 'keying', this
bill board might do with a bit of cheering up courtisy of a can of spray paint.

4. That's, "Go to Hell, Mr. President", to you.

5. What bothers me more than the vulgar insult (after all, they have a First Amendment right to

express their opinion), is that they seem to think they are on a first-name basis with the president. How rude.
