Quote of the Day
“In this era of crisis, it is important that all Americans step up in service to our country. In these next five years, the leading national issues will surely be the creation of new jobs, the economy, finance and financial regulation, energy, the environment, infrastructure and foreign policy,” Bestani said in a press release. “I have been privileged to have had a thirty-five year career which has given me high level experience in each of these complex fields. I think I would be remiss if I did not come forward and once again offer to serve our country.”

The sign in question was placed on private property at 288 rt. 125 without the permission of the land-owner. The sign was removed. Shea-Porter threatened the landowner, and called the police, who verified that the land was privately owned.
The sign was not destroyed but thrown away, after the property owner offered to return it to Shea-Porter, who angrily refused.
The only illegal act was the placing of the sign.
