well stop thinking adj lol why not mention George Washington or anyone else??? the common factor in the presidents listed is they were assassinated but Lincoln and Kennedy were both sitting down when they were shot not walking (so much for those footsteps) and Garfield was shot while waiting for a train (waiting tends to be a stationary act) so much for those footsteps as for McKinley: On his right stood John C. Milburn of Buffalo, president of the Pan-American Exposition, chatting with the President so he was not walking either hhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmm but they did all walk the halls of the white house and congress and obviously other places as well ---------------------------------       |

I agree...in this case it is a fine line.

it is always a fine line
or it is never a fine line or not

so..while everyone talks about whether Obama is good or bad, the topic was about an ad in a newspaper which might could be a threat or a seriously sick joke.
My question is, who wrote it, why and how did it get past the screening to become an ad. |

Doesn't matter if it was a joke. It's against the law to threaten the president.

it's against the law to make threats period. I wondered earlier in the thread why the paper didn't catch the ad

"May the fleas of a thousand camels infest your armpits"
Is that a threat? |

maybe they just thought Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley and Kennedy, were great presidents and is hoping that obama will be a great president as well some do say lincoln was the best prez ever andhey there are those tha really liked kenedy as well and garfield and mckinley had to have done something good at sometime don't ya think  maybe it is the paper's editor's own mind set that is creating the thought process behind the hope for the unthinkable just a thought |

Not to stir up controversy - but his quote actually never threatened anyone. While the message is clear to me, no where on his ad does he explicitly say he wants anything to happen to Obama? |
