Someone needs to help me here. You make a sign, for people to read. You screw it up, and I assume you notice the C backwards and other weird letter placements. Why do you still show the sign? Do you tell yourself: a: Nobody's gonna notice b: Nobody cares that I'm incompetent at writing incompetent, the gov is evil c: They'll think I did it on purpose d: Nobody will read it anyway
a: implies you're demonstrating with and to morons b: doesn't make you the smartest guy around (or does it?) c: ignores the overall inpetitude of the sign d: Why even bother?
I'm confused

I have a new favorite sign. You can tell he started out strong, the first 3 lines are solid. Then fatigue started to set in and he couldn't even be bother to hold the stencils the right way or spell out words and it devolves into madness. Bravo, good sir!

I don't think he knows what "Payola" is...
Wikipedia: Payola is the illegal practice of payment or other inducement by record companies for the broadcast of recordings on music radio, in which the song is presented as being part of the normal day's broadcast.

There's the sign-making incompetence, the vagueness, the inarticulateness and the poor choice of targets. The venue is also questionable, since few will ever see his pathetic sign. Still, the guy's right about one thing: our current federal government is both corrupt and incompetent. I wonder, is he really a moron or just some guy with a mediocre education?

@Thomas:
While that's where the term "payola" originated, it's now become a more general term for bribe. I don't know why they didn't just use the term bribe - I'm not in charge of the American English lexicon.
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.

Fucking epic.
Payola? - Obama is paying radio stations to play his music?
Since when did Obama get a record label?
