Actually, not only do good presidents (like good people) apologize when it's needed, but it tends to be remembered as a good thing and it makes friends.
(One rare exception would be the recent apology to Qaddafi by the Swiss president, not sure what he was thinking)

Real presidents are elected by the people of their country. Sorry, Mr. Tea-Bag.
"I love this country," Franken says. "But you have to love your country like an adult loves somebody, not like a child loves its Mommy. And right-wing Republicans tend to love America like a child loves its Mommy, where everything Mommy does is okay. But adult love means you're not in denial, and you want the loved one to be the best they can be."
Okay, I went away and came back and this sign still pisses me off. Especially the snotty comment about Michelle Obama. If you have an alcoholic son, you aren't proud he's an alcoholic, but you love him anyway. That's how I feel about this country sometimes. The stupid crap our government pulls makes me embarrassed for our country sometimes. But I'm still glad to be an American. That's how adults love. Conservatives really disgust me.

Dissent is the highest form of patriotism. I believe in this whole-heartedly.
And I appreciate anyone who has the gumption to protest despite their handicapped abilities to articulate what they oppose. Their right, and ours, to a freedom of speech is something few in this world can savor. Another right we should not forget to savor, though, is the right to mock them.
Some of these signs have been floating around the internet for a while and could be called classics, others are new. They just needed to be collected in one place. Please enjoy, and share it with your friends.

Wow, and that sign seemed to be looking pretty good (aside from the message it carried) until the "thier" made its appearance.
Very quick way to lose the bonus points for printing a full color background instead of the typical magic-marker on white palette.
