Perhaps the most amusing picket sign on Saturday was the one that a rather determined middle-aged women carried with a lot of pride. She marched towards me holding it high. It read, “Lets Clone Scott Walker”. I politely laughed as she passed, and then turned heel and caught up with her in about 5 steps.
“Ma’am,” I said, “you do realize that your governor is not friendly to science that would allow research into stem cells or cloning of any kind?”
Her blond hair bobbed as she lifted her head a little higher in a dismissive nod, and without word marched on. As I write this tonight I am still wondering how she missed the irony when she was making her sign prior to the rally.
And so it was on Saturday as the 70,000 who assembled under sunny skies on the Capitol Square marched and chanted their slogans regarding Governor Walker’s union busting bill.
As with days past it was the signs, and the creative way that citizens gave voice to their points of view on placards that made for smiles, laughs, and double-takes. Here then is a sample.
My favorite today was this one….
Many of the signs hit on education….and the fact that Governor Walker only has a high school diploma. Like it or not this is a topic that comes up over and over in conversations….and one that resonates among voters. People want leaders to be smarter than they are.
“In one year I will me more educated than Scott Walker” was proudly carried by a young man in the crowd.
Among the cute sign holders today were these two……
CAFFEINATED POLITICS 
Ah, if there were a sign at a Tea Party Rally with Barack Obama over the words “Corporate Street Walker” the person carrying the sign would be called a bigot as well as the entire Tea Party Movement correct?
Incorrect.
Dave,
No, correct.
Thank you for posting photos of these great signs!
So Ferrell, are you saying the Corporate Street Walker sign is bigoted?
The average Teabagger would have to turn to the lexicon in order to spell “corporate”. Perhaps it should evolve to “corporat”.
