The New Fad Taking The Country By Storm: "Overpasses For Obama’s Impeachment" - we saw them!

I just posted something in the NC group, then did a bit of Googling and found the article below. We spotted the offensive activity close to our house yesterday at a highway overpass. Anyone else run into these nutcases?

The group “Overpasses For Obama’s Impeachment” held rallies around the country this weekend calling for Obama’s impeachment. The group lists 12 reasons for Obama’s impeachment on their website and has quite the following on Facebook. It’s the next big thing.
