Rob,
The Museum of Modern Art, which you say you welcome the opportunity to
live near, features things like a string of plain, unlit light bulbs
hanging on a wall. And that is considered art. I think if you broadened
your view of what is aesthetically pleasing beyond what is packaged and
presented to you as "art" with an admissions charge attached, you would
not be bothered by a few fliers and campaign signs on the street. It's
part of living in a culturally and politically vibrant city.
But for an additional $100 to Mike, I will gladly promise not to put
any of his campaign signs along Third Street between Folsom and Market.
Thank you for your contribution, and I wish raising money for
Libertarian causes was always this easy!
Yours in liberty,
<<< Starchild >>>
None. From any candidate. Those are the tackiest damned things I've
ever
seen. It's one thing for supporters to put one sign in their apartment
window or in their front yard. It's yet another to plaster one's home
with
them, or even worse, put them on street lamp posts, a dozen of them per
block.Promising not to put any of those things up was one of my favorite
campaign
promises, even though the environmentalist groups asking me to make
that
promise never seriously considered me for endorsement.Maybe I'm just picky about my neighborhood, but I pay a whole lot of
money
to live a block from the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and all the
other beautiful architecture and open spaces within walking distance of
here. And nothing ruins it faster than having to look at tacky
campaign
signs on every single stationary object along the sidewalk. Of
course, I
don't support the normal San Franciscan's solution to neighborhood
eyesores -- namely using the force of government to enforce a ban.
Instead,
I prefer the market approach.So, Starchild, I'll contribute an additional $100 to Mike's campaign,
if
you'll promise not to put any campaign signs anywhere along Third
Street
between Folsom and Market. Anyone care to get into a bidding war with
me?
Rob
How
many signs for Libertarian mayoral candidate Mike Denny would you like
to see when you leave the house each morning?"------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor
