In case you haven’t seen or heard about this billboard, I thought I would throw it up here so you could have a good laugh. I saw it for the first time yesterday in a forwarded email and thought it was just a clever photoshop but awoke this morning to see that the Internet was abuzz with speculation about the sign’s origin. Breitbart TV says the billboard has been confirmed as genuine and not just an Internet hoax, and the race appears to be on to find out who flipped the bill for this now very popular advertisement located on Interstate 35 near Wyoming, Minnesota.
Some are hesitant to call this an anti-Obama advertisement out of fears that it is an cleverly crafted “ironic message” posted by a Left-Winger attempting to remind us of the low points of the Bush administration as we head into election season. I can’t really get on board for that level of conspiracy being at work here. I’m more inclined to think it is the brainchild of the owner of a billboard who was struggling to fill his advertising space – in the middle of nowhere – so he decided to have a little fun with the President as he heads into his second year of destroying this great nation.
Another Black Conservative appears to agree with me…
I will keep you updated when I learn more. I am sure the mystery won’t last the day.

Michelle Malkin has some very real “misgivings” about the billboard story. She even offers a recommendation for a better sign if someone wants to make a “real” one…
Reader W.E. Messamore came up with some new and improved “Miss Me Yet?” billboard photoshops, including my favorite:
Mystery Solved for now…
Various people have stepped forward around the country to claim credit — the latest was a gentleman in upstate New York from what I can tell in his e-mail. But, it’s all local, folks.
We miss him! -B
I love that even on here you guys are a team and Brice still drops the -B
I got one of those emails too. This is real?
Yup. Its real.
If I had enough money I would put one of those signs in every city. I couldnt wait to see Bush go but Id like to have him back now. Bush had some flaws but he was an honest man. This administration doesn’t have even one of those.
I think you may be able to kick into the cause if you want to before all is said and done. I can smell a series of these signs on the horizon with some fundraising likely already underway..
I have been sporting the bumpersticker for 4 months!
The Kirchoffs Morning Coffee Bunch conspired (hehe) and sold them for $ 5.00 each. My Father,75, the youngest of the group bought the first one and handed it to me and said “You know what to do”! I went outside and put it on!!!
That is awesome. I’d love to get my hands on one. Can you put me in contact with the Kirchoff’s Morning Coffee Brunch conspiracy? Either way, tell your father well done. Glad you knew what to do with it…
Did you see the even better photoshop?
