Man Parks Manure Near Democrats' Campaign Office to Protest Obama
A 38-year-old Montana man has come under fire after parking a trailer load of manure across the street from a Democratic campaign office to protest Barack Obama.
BUTTE, Mont.--
Democrats are criticizing a 38-year-old man who parked a trailer load of manure across the street from Whitehall's Democratic campaign office to protest presidential hopeful Barack Obama.
Terry Reed, who owns a construction and excavation company in Whitehall, parked the trailer near the office on Saturday. He also posted a sign in the manure mocking Obama's "change we can believe in" slogan as "a load of crap."
"I think Obama's plan is just one big old poop sandwich and we're all going to have to take a bite," he said.
Suzanne Molyneaux, the Obama campaign's election team leader in Whitehall, said traffic came to a near standstill as people stopped to take pictures of the trailer.
"People in Whitehall were upset, they were outraged," she said. "I don't think Whitehall should be represented as this podunk, ignorant community. There are lots of good people here."
Reed said he doesn't plan to move the trailer until after Election Day.
"My only regret is that I didn't do something sooner," he said.
but guess who won the election!!!
