Moran wrote a letter to Metro general manager Richard Sarles calling for the removal of the advertisement.
"The ad is deeply disrespectful of the President of the United States and does not belong in the Washington
Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) network," he wrote.
It turns out that such language is within the accepted limits of American law and such advertisements are protected under the First Amendment of the US constitution, guaranteeing free speech.
"WMATA does not endorse the advertising on our system, and ads do not reflect the position of the Authority."
*This is a hot ass mess!
Disrespecting the President doesn't help this country. It only adds fuel to the fire and makes it bigger.
As most of you know, this is a huge election year. The candidates including our President is doing whatever they can do to get "your" attention, that includes place ads like this one in metro stations to get your attention.
Is it right?
I guess it's the American way to be down right disrespectful and nasty to our commander in chief. You would think people would have better manners than that, but I guess most aren't raised with manners in these times.
We know that there's alot of people who don't like President Obama for obvious reasons. That's ok. However, to be down right rude, and disrepectful is just RIDICULOUS!
Even in an election year there's a way to get your point across without being nasty about it.
Maybe the President and his people should counter with "SHUT THE HELL UP DUMB BITCHES."
Or not say anything.
