Reaction to Phil Wolf's "Birther" Billboard

Wheat Ridge car dealer Phil Wolf believes President Barack Obama might just be a jihadist. In Wolf's world, the president still lacks a legitimate birth certificate, despite evidence to the contrary, and the president might be connected to the shooting massacre at the Fort Hood U.S. Army post. Those are the messages Wolf advertises in a billboard that he erected at his used-car lot, triggering accusations of racism (via The Huffington Post). Denver Post columnist Mike Littwin calls the "birther" message at the center of the billboard the "strangest conspiracy theory since the Trilateral Commission days," expressing utter confusion as to why the billboard slams Obama as traitorous with its message: "Wake up America! Remember Fort Hood!" The controversy is snaring innocent bystanders, including Wolf Auto Sales of northeastern Colorado and western Nebraska, which received multiple calls and e-mails about the billboard, although it is not affiliated with Wolf Auto Group of Wheat Ridge (via dscriber). As for Phil Wolf, he tells 9News he's received threats: "We've had calls as far as Canada to Florida. We've had calls all over the country. I didn't expect employees to leave scared going home from work that were threatened, death threats and attempts to bomb the place. It's been pretty crazy out there." Still, Wolf says he won't back down. The Anti-Defamation League wishes he would, saying the billboard uses religious imagery to stereotype all Muslims.

It's amazing that the three negative posters only know how to spout off. They call him a coward yet he hasn't hidden or backed down. He is standing tall! If he is so crazy why does every poll agree with his questions? 78-93%

Truth is hate to those who hate the truth. Way to go, Mr. Wolf. I admire your fortitude. See how all the "tolerant" people act when the message doesn't fit their agenda? They ain't so tolerant any more, are they. HAHAHA! Hypocrites!

The first 3 posters are blind idiots that have their heads stuck in the sand! How many of our freedoms, that REAL, TRUE Americans have died for, will you watch this ignorant, America hating piece of dirt that a pile of uninformed idiots voted into office, take away, before you wake up! At this very moment, he and Hillary Clinton are hard at work, trying to pass a GLOBAL resolution on GLOBAL gun control, side-stepping congress, so that law-abiding Americans will be subjected to international law which will mandate that we either give up our guns, or face prison terms. You people are morons.
