2. I wonder if Skinner will believe it now?
Great scoop on Billboardgate yesterday. This is just so sad to see it in action. I truly wish people would make the connection to every other dictator in history. America is no place for these two-bit shenanigans.

Letters to the Editor; Billboard message


Orlando Sentinel

On my way to work Wednesday morning, I looked up and saw a giant billboard with a picture of George W. Bush and the words "OUR LEADER" under it. The first thing I thought was, when was the last time I have seen a president on a billboard? What is going on? Didn't Saddam Hussein have his picture up everywhere? What next, a statue?

I am so concerned with our country and the division. I still stand by my vote, which was for John Kerry. George W. Bush has a lot of work to do to change the way I feel. Putting him up on a billboard does not make him a better president. His actions speak louder than words.

I wonder if anyone else finds the president's picture on a billboard odd? I'm sorry, but it reminds me of countries with dictators, and it seems people are making him out to be the messiah, the savior of our world.

Fear, fear, fear. I'm tired of being afraid.

5. I'm not sure
A couple of threads were started yesterday about the billboards, but Skinner locked one of the threads. I think that this needs to get pushed farther. This is a real problem. This IS a Stalinist tactic, and one used heavily by Saddam Hussein during his regieme. This is a perfect example of unchecked power ploys.
