The Number One, Crazy, Whacked-Out Decaturite

I have to tell you this news, that you won't even believe!  Remember that crazy old coot (well, maybe not so old since he is about our age), Ron Townsend, who own Townsend Tires out by the high school?  He is protesting Barack Obama's election by flying his American flag upside down, which is an international symbol of distress, and a request for immediate assistance!   What a complete jerk!

He claims it is to protest Obama's support for abortion, which kills millions of innocent babies every year.  He puts pictures up in his business that show the rotting bodies of aborted fetuses found in the trash outside abortion clinics.

I don't know why he doesn't say anything about the six years, from 2000 to 2006, when the Republicans had control of all three branches of the government, yet conveniently failed to pass any legislation, or do anything about it at all, except to trot the issue out for the 2004 election, to make sure they remained in power.

Do I sound bitter?  

I dislike abortion, and wish the demand for it didn't exist.  I love all five of my children, and cannot ever imagine a life without their joyful and happy presence.  But I am truly appalled by Townsend's over-the-top response to Obama's election.  According to the Journal-Gazette this morning, our Decatur mayor, John Schultz called him on it, and asked him to cease and desist--that it would bring shame and dishonor to our little town if the scandal made the national media.

I don't have the link to the papers, but you can look at the DDD website for November 7th or the FW JG for today's (front page) coverage.
