Right here in my neck of the woods. And no, I didn't do it. Wish I had...
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KRDO) -- Someone has put a lot of thought into a welcome sign that may surprise you, it's in front of a homeless camp off I-25 in Colorado Springs.
Its message, "Welcome to Obamaville, Colorado's fastest growing community." Despite repeated calls no one could answer the question, who put up the sign?
To some homeless the sign's message says enough. Mark Limonez, a homeless man living in "tent city", says the sign doesn't make him feel good about trying to get back on his feet. "Guys are trying to work but there's not enough work out there, so they go pan handling or flag a sign" Limonez says, "I've never seen so many camps since I've been out in the streets - there's no money."
There are no logos on the front of the sign and no clues to where it comes from.

A clever take off from the 1930's Hoovervilles: 10%+ unemployment rates for as far as they eye can see, Obamaville's will dot the landscapes going forward.
Oh my God, MOVE!
I hear ya malcontent. But moving won't work for these people. They are unemployable drunks and dopers. Until they clean themselves up, they'll remain where they're at.
