Defaced image of President Obama placed next to picture of Unabomber on toolbox at Bronx firehouse


A Bronx firehouse is feeling the heat after officials discovered an image of President Obama was painted on a toolbox - and then defaced with the word "hustler."

An iconic picture of the President above the word "BELIEVE" appears to have been stenciled on a large toolbox visible inside Engine 45, Ladder 58 in East Tremont.

Right across Obama's face is the word "HUSTLER" in big red letters.

And underneath the image, someone scrawled "Allah Akbar" - "God is great" in Arabic - in black ink.

3. I don't care if he is a "hustler" as long as he is hustling on
our behalf. I'm glad he shook down BP. The corporate world has been shaking down the American people for over a century.

7. I don't mean to sound snotty or mean...My dad was a unionized blue collar worker
the only way you could have gotten him to vote Republican was to hold a gun to his head.

It's hideous thinking of what's happened to those heroes (and they were heroes) of 9/11.
