‘Miss me yet?’ asks billboard George W. Bush
Heard about the “Miss Me Yet” billboard featuring a waving George W. Bush?
It’s not fake, as many Web sites initially claimed. Thanks to Bob Collins, a Minnesota Public Radio reporter in Minnesota,
we not only know that it’s real and watching over I-35 near Wyoming, Minn., but we even have an answer –
well, part of the answer – to the bigger question: who paid for it?
Mary Teske, the general manager of Schubert & Hoey Outdoor Advertising reports, "The Bush Miss Me Yet?
billboard was paid for by a group of small business owners who feel like Washington is against them.
They wish to remain anonymous. They thought it was a fun way of getting out their message."

something I heard on the radio one morning. Seems there’s this new barber shop that opened up. The owner, wanting to use the latest technology, bought a robot to do all the hair cutting. It was a real robot, not one of these science fiction things where they put a shiny pot on your head with wires sticking out of it. It was so advanced it could carry on a conversation with even the smartest customer. They got three customers to test it out. The first guy had an IQ 140 and the robot engaged him in a conversation about relativity and quantum mechanics. The guy said “outstanding, I’m very impressed” The second guy had an IQ of 100. The robot started talking to him about sports and hunting. The guy said “ wow that’s cool” The third guy had an IQ of 70. The robot said “ so I hear you democrats are really excited about Obama running for president. They guy said “ hey where’s my shiny pot with the wires sticking out?”
To keep things ballanced, I looked up ‘airhead’ in the dictionary and there was a picture of Sara Palin.
Last time I saw someone write crib notes in their hand was in hight school… and it was me in Spanish class
Former Alaska governor and Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin’s appearance before the National Tea Party Convention in Nashville Saturday night gave plenty of red meat to the attendees, such as calling President Obama “a charismatic guy with a Teleprompter.”
