Or, "Obama's a half-breed Muslim." Or, "The zoo has an African lion and the White House has a lyin' African." Or, "Hey, Hussein. Go Back to Kenya." ================= I see where you "saw" these signs now. The one about the "half-breed Muslim" seems to be a sign staked in the ground somewhere, doubt it was from a Tea-Party protest.
