Great Great freeway blog on I-94 on Detroit's east side today!
I was driving home westward, and the signs started before Harper and ended around Hamtramck. There were signs posted on both sides of about ten consecutive pedestrian overpasses so that traffic going in both directions would see the signs. Each sign had a big "W" in the upper left, with the red circle with a line through it. Then each sign had a caption "Wrong _____". Wrong on the environment, wrong on jobs, wrong on Iraq, wrong on WMD's, wrong on the economy, wrong on taxes, wrong on science, wrong on healthcare, wrong in Peace, wrong in War.
What a great sight it was! I saw them about 3:45 P.M. I hope they stayed up through the rush hour at least! Those heading eastward surely got an eyefull, since their traffic is backed up solid every day.
Mega Kudos to whoever did this. It took a lot of work, and I sure got a big kick out of it!

2. That's my kid!!!
My daughter and her friends did those. High schoolers (and some parents) in action. :D

They went up Wednesday night around midnight. I'm so glad they stayed up all day!!! She's home sick, I just showed her this message, she's all happy now (despite her 101.7 degree fever).
