This Has to be a Fake

[ 23 ] March 25, 2011 | Dave Brockington

Not even freedom-hating anti-choice wingnuts could fail to see the irony in this, unless they don’t understand history.

Oh.  Hang on.

Poll at The Stranger here (update: correct link now) to vote this “the worst ad placement ever”.  h/t Richard Elgar.

One of the commenters in one of the threads I pursued to track down the original source indicated that the photo is from the Northern KY / Cincy area.  This is the chain.  Fortunately, LGM has a field office in the area to investigate the veracity of the photo.

    LOL!

    And of course Conservatives won’t get the irony of it.

    It’s a well known fact that Conservatives suffer from an irony deficiency.

    Southern Ohio is the closest thing to a time machine to 1962 America can get (unless someone can show how Einstein was wrong).

    In fact, I think parts of Cincinnati are so retrograde that they actually exist in the time between Dred Scott and John Brown’s attack on Harper’s Ferry.

  5. Where is the LGM Home Office?

  6. Not a fake. About six blocks from my house.

    The link to the Stranger’s poll is not correct in the post. (It’s a repeat of the link to JMG.) Here is where the poll resides.

    I have long had this idea for a snark fake website of the American Hanger Institute (or something like it) advocating a strong anti-choice agenda in order to improve sales.

    I live in Cincinnati. Those hangers are real. Plus what timb said.
