Billboard Altered To Show Bush Quote
Quote Featured In 'Fahrenheit 9-11'

SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- A Sacramento billboard drew a lot of attention Tuesday after it was altered to show a quote from President George W. Bush that was included in the controversial new Michael Moore movie.

The billboard near Land Park Drive and Broadway, which was originally for Baskin Robbins, was changed to show a quote from President George W. Bush.

The quote -- "A dictatorship would be a heck of a lot easier, there's no question about it" -- was included in the film "Fahrenheit 9-11."

KCRA 3 contacted Baskin Robbins about the billboard.

A company spokeswoman said the company had been made aware that one of their billboards in Sacramento had been defaced and that they were "taking steps to remove the billboard immediately."

The billboard is close to the Tower Theater, where "Fahrenheit 9-11" is playing.

3. I congratulate this great America for the truth. Sorry, I don't like to
see property defaced, but with Bush and his corporate whore media accomplices frustrating every effort to get the truth to the American people; patriots have no other choice than taking these kind of actions.

5. How dare Baskin Robbins try to conceal the truth, LOL!
I'll never eat Baskin Robbins ice cream again if they remove that quote.
