Whoa … Classy.
Hanson, Massachusetts
Somebody taped over the little girl’s middle finger because, apparently, it is not child abuse to pay a little girl to model for a billboard with an obscenity, but someone within the zip code thought it was creepy so they covered it up. Hansen, Massachusetts: where creepy is the high standard of personal behavior.
This is only one of three signs Robert Sullivan has erected in front of his business. Luckily, his lawyer is an idiot.
The offending finger has now been covered over with packing tape and the authorities are debating whether the boards are even legal, since owner Robert Sullivan did not get a permit from the building commissioner to put them up.
Town official Bob Curran said the eye-catching signs could be distracting and dangerous for pedestrians and drivers.
Mr Sullivan’s lawyer, however, said he is protected under the First Amendment and that he is entitled to ‘free speech’.
Ding! Ding! No prize for that one, Mr. Lawyer. They do lack the required federal political disclaimer on them saying who paid for them. We’re sorry you’re not our winner today, but please see John McCain for your consolation prize.
Thanks to Alfredo over at the Dairy Queen who is a whole lot swankier than some guy in Hansen, Massachusetts
Robert Sullivan (the sign maker) should just man up and put his own face on the sign, and his own finger. I doubt that little girl in the picture does without her lunch money, or even thinks about the rest of his comments.
1So she figures she is only going to be making less than $2000/year for those 35 years.
16T/300M = ~54,000
54,000/35 = 1500+
2Went to the link to find out what kind of business the jerk had – motorcycle accessories…
He might not lose much business, since a great many of the riders I see are of the rightish bent, but hey…I still ride some (used to ride a lot) and I’m a shrieking socialist. And he is in deep-blue Massachusetts. Not sure how wise this actually is.
We have people locally (MS) who post politically polarizing signs on their businesses that make it seem as though they do not want anything but deep-dipped-fundie-GOPer money. They will never know it, but I do not spend my money at those places.
Does anyone know who owns the Mail, because those comments to the story are horrible (they LIKE the signs) and seriously uprated. The first 20 were from the US and not the UK…
3My guess is that’s one of his own kids.
Great parenting Mr. Sullivan has going on up there in Massachusetts.
Great message he is sending to other children.
There is a “jerk” involved in all this…. and it’s the sign maker.
4Miemaw: Your probably right, the girl is probably his own daughter! Any guy who makes a sign like that can’t be any fun around the house. So Mr Sullivan caught a photo of his own daughter giving HIM the finger and calling HIM a jerk. He probably spent her lunch money on that sign and told her it was Obama’s fault.
5Oh my! I hope that’s not his daughter. I don’t want to believe that such a complete idiot has any children at all. He should voluntarily remove himself from the gene pool.
6If he’s in Massachusetts, it means diddly-squat, because that state is going for Obama anyway, so he’s just displaying his own jerkhood to everyone around him.

This will make Everybody feel better. Go check it out!
And honestly, about the sign in MA?
8That is everything Paul Ryan’s budget would take away.
So on top of being a moron, he’s a liar and idiot!!!!!
Dear Diane, thanks for a great morning LOL and pick me up!
