The Fringe ... Is Freakin' Everywhere

More unintentional truth telling from the right. Michelle Malkin asks her readers to guess where this defaced stop sign is located. Her sympathetic readers respond, respond, and respond some more. With a nationwide list of sightings Malkin unintentionally confirms what the rest of us already know - how widespread and commonplace the sentiment is. Her readers say:


Joe. M - "I encounter those signs regularly in Massachusetts. Mostly in the Northampton area."

Leza - "This stop sign is on the corner of my street in Atlanta. (Or perhaps its clone?) I keep calling the City to get it cleaned up but so far no response. If you did visit, hope you had a great time!"

Glenn - "Is it in the people's republic of Maryland?"

Eric S. - "I'm gonna go with Dallas, TX as I've seen quite a few of those here,unfortunately."

EiP - "Totally Seattle."

Ed - "I've seen several of these but this looks like one I pass from time totime in PA near Philly."

Ted K. - "I saw one like this in Phoenix, Arizona. So, this is my guess."

Sean - "That is something I see at least a dozen times a day in lovely Portland, Oregon, the capital of Bush Hatred for sure. Perhaps outside of Paris, anyway. There are more Kerry '04 bumper stickers on cars than there are cars, nearly."

Paul - "Just a guess but the trees made me think of the Northeast, maybe Massachusetts or eastern Pennsylvania."

Carolann - "Has to be the Hamptons. Growing up on Long Island and knowing the people, it's my best guess."JC -

"Outside of Clinton's home."

Hah. Several nominations for Crawford, Texas.

And there were scores of votes for Santa Cruz, San Diego, Hollywood, and San Francisco. Right state.

And the winner is...Chris H., who was first with the most precise guess: Berkeley Hills.
