Rich,

This has been showing up in parades in the LaSalle County Area. Not sure the guy towing it understands political messaging. Might be fun for a caption contest.

Enjoy.

   Kramer: “Because we’re blind to their tyranny.”
   Woman: “Then shouldn’t you be wearing the bucket?”

11. “Words! Lots of Words!”

    They do appear to be spelled correctly, so points to this particular irate zealot. No “loosers” or bad apostrophe usage, so it’s a start.

27. So, just curious…for which R’s and which D’s is the owner of the sign recommending we vote…you know, just so I’m not voting party lines and all.

    Comment by Moby Wednesday, Aug 31, 16 @ 1:43 pm

28. After to refusing to read that Trump’s economic plan will add 10 trillion to the national debt, Jed used a meme generator to make a sign.

30. Power-Take-Off disconnection.

    Comment by Vole Wednesday, Aug 31, 16 @ 2:10 pm

31. The thing that bothers me about this is that the very people this crapcart is blaming for NOT raising revenue or spending on things like pensions are the same people who oppose any and all revenue increases, and who vehemently opposed fully funding pensions.

    Comment by Delimma Wednesday, Aug 31, 16 @ 2:16 pm

32. “that continually raise our taxes”

    From 1990 through 2010 - so twenty years - Illinois kept a constant 3% flat income tax.

    In 2010, facing a growing retiree / elderly population, IL boosted that rate to 5%.

    OMG. One income tax increase in 20 years.

    The voters are no bargain.

    Comment by ZC Wednesday, Aug 31, 16 @ 2:26 pm

    Comment by d.p.gumby Wednesday, Aug 31, 16 @ 3:25 pm

36. “It’s a yucky job, man, even in the best of conditions.”

    It’s a bad day to wear a good hat.

    Comment by @MisterJayEm Wednesday, Aug 31, 16 @ 3:31 pm

37. Perhaps the metaphor is Donald Trump, a bully and braggart, constantly finds himself in manure, just like Biff Tannen, the antagonist in the Back to Future movies….

    Comment by Steve Rogers Wednesday, Aug 31, 16 @ 3:39 pm

38. It’s a good political Rorschach test.

    “What message do you see?”
