Texas Man Behind Anti-Obama Billboards Speaks Out (Video)

This billboard popped up in Texas recently…
“Embarrassed Yet?”
The man behind the anti-Obama billboard campaign talked with reporters about the honest controversial billboards.
Ellis Miller wants to make Americans think, “Is this government doing the will of the people?”
Local KLTV reported:
An East Texan is getting his point across with billboards. The signs voice simple thoughts on the Obama Administration.
The billboards began in Marshall, with the latest in Longview, taking jabs at the Obama Administration, with phrases like, “Embarrassed yet?” and “Wake up.”
Both are identified as paid for by E.M. Citizen. Who is E.M.? Ellis Miller of Gilmer.
“I was frustrated by how things were going with the health care bill and other aspects of the administration,” Miller explained.
Neither Republican or Democrat, at 69 the mild mannered and soft spoken Miller is a retired doctor in Gilmer who wants to make his voice known.
“Seemed to ignore what people wanted, what can I do,” he said. “I have health reasons that I can’t get out and go to tea parties, and it came to me, put up a billboard.”
His concerns are over people not paying attention to what he says the administration is saying.
“‘I’m going to fundamentally change your country,’ [the president says,] and people ignore it, ‘I’m going to redistribute the wealth,’ [the president says,] and people ignore it,” said Miller.
Miller says he did not put the billboards up to incite anger or violence against the government but to make Americans think, “Is this government doing the will of the people?”

God Bless E.M.

A suggestion. The next billboard should read, “OBAMA, DO YOUR JOB!”
Audacity commented:
With the MSM lying to the public & ignoring the obvious, I would suspect that we will see more of these billboards across the country. Just another outlet to combat the MSM & get the message out.
firewifem commented:
Really though, shouldn’t this hate speech be stopped. Why is this rhetoric allowed?
Cmate commented:
Notice how the violence ‘meme’ comes out in the last paragraph.
Stuart commented:
The destruction of the republic is NOT the will of the people.
Charlie commented:
I kind of like the “CASH NOW” sign under the billboard. I guess the left didn’t like it when private business muscled into their payday loan scam territory. Anyways, it’ the foundation of the Obama administration now.

#2: Odweebo IS doing his job. All that he is capable of, that is. He’s way out of his league and it shows. Hurry November, we need competent people in the worst way!

#5,
This rhetoric is allowed because despite Odumbo—this is STILL America.!!
I wonder how much the billboards cost.
Auntie Em commented:
God bless E.M. Citizen!!!
There could be lots of these going up now.
wanumba commented:
So, does this mean the media finally outed the man?
Would they put so much effort to outing the authors of the HealthCare Bill, the authors of the Cap and Trade, the authors of the VAT, the authors of the Homeland Security Terrorist guide, and a host of other people who are actively rewriting our government structure and laws instead of a guy who is just noticing the nature of the change.

I want the signs to say…………..

I’d like to get about 2 dozen of those imported locally. I have more than enough places where they would work wonders.

@ Ginger
Actually you want his passport, the one that says Indonesia, Kenya or Great Britian on it.
Char commented:
Where is the billboard that says, “WHEN can we impeach?”
Char commented:
Well Papa, since you know him, tell him our hearts overflow with gratitude to him. May God heal him of his illness, and bless him and his family. THANK YOU for what you are doing for America; may she remain the land of the free, and removing the socialist in office is the first step towards our liberty.

I hear this gentleman is going to post another billboard as soon as he has enough money. I wonder how people could donate money to him to assist. I think this is great–what freedom of speech is all about.
