Really, all she did was misplace an O and forget an apostrophe. I'd call that progress, but she would accuse me of being socialist.

In this context, the "think, made in usa" is scaring me. That thought had major manufacturing flaws.
God bless people who can't spell. At least for once the message is coherent.
I guess the sign carriers havennt nevernot heard of borrowing. So what, then, arennt they nothappy about?
I love all these dumb sign teabagger posts, but in this case, I think she has simply written "do not"
... but you are right about the O in the first 'not'.
Where's the missing apostrophe though?
:-)
Well, it's a missing apostrophe or a missing space.
Donot
Do not
Don't
The second O in donot looks like it was written over, so maybe she had an apostrophe but decided against it.
I promise I'll quit doing this, but there's that old lard butt in a cap again, this time running interference for the sign carrier.
What about the "cannt"?
You've already got one error on a piece of corrugated cardboard. Then you somehow notice that the hyphen in "don't" is too low, so you circle it to create a Greek theta, which, as everyone knows, denotes the voiceless dental fricative in the International Phonetic Alphabet. That's error two. Error three is the missing space for the word your theta created. Three errors in a ten word sentence! But God bless America, that's what being a moron with a sign is all about.
It is just me, or did she write "donut" without thinking then go back to correct it to "donot?"
These pics are priceless! Don't these people have internet access? You'd think they may have seen some of these awfully written signs made fun of online somewhere and stepped up their spelling game a little bit!
There were two ways she could have gotten her message written correctly:
You can not spend what you/we do not have!
or
You can't spend what you/we don't have!
She had two Ns and left out the O in can not and did not space out do not. She wouldn't have needed an apostrophe since she went with spelling out the two words.
Her message was not out there to any war president who starts or continue wars that was handled over to their administration from the last one.
Sansemi, "cannot" is all one word, not two.
