Bring In a McCain sign, get a free Pizza!!!

Are the Obamanites this desperate???

Some say a Warren restaurant's tempting offer is nothing but a dirty campaign trick. The local pizzeria is offering free pizza in exchange for some campaign signs. FOX 2's Brad Edwards explains how that offer may have prompted some hungry bargain hunters to break the law.

Be fun to be working at the local Republican office and bankrupt the store.

Did you notice that the reporter said that most of the victims didn't want to press charges? WTF? That's what's wrong. A lot of people don't want people to be held accountable for their actions. The friggin' teenager had the audacity to come on your property and steal from you!

It's fine to forgive them, but make sure they're held accountable. I'm not saying lock them up and throw away the key, but you can't teach them that there are no consequences to stealing.

This is a front to get folks to steal signs from people's yards. You folks that have signs better keep you eyes open. In my neighborhood I noticed there were a few Obama signs up - there are also a lot of McCain signs - and then they suddenly disappeared, but all the McCain signs are still up. I suspect they were stolen. I think it stinks no matter whose sign it is.

Totally agree, if it's on someones private property, it's thief, no sugar coating that fact!!!
