A billboard in western Colorado that used caricatures to depict President Barack Obama as a terrorist, gangster, Mexican bandit and a gay man has been taken down.

The sign along an Interstate 70 business loop in Grand Junction drew criticism from local Republicans and Democrats.

The artist, Paul Snover, of nearby Loma, says he has received what he calls "very hateful" emails and phone calls.

Snover has said he couldn't reveal who paid for the billboard.

Downey said the owners of the billboard company, Bud’s Signs, removed it after receiving threats from people who didn’t care for it, the Daily Sentinel reported.

1. "couldn't reveal who paid for the billboard". Interesting

so much bravado in creating it, such a coward in not revealing his benefactor.

2. Snover can dish it out.

But he obviously thinks he shouldn't have to take it.
