McCain team actions seem to confirm the message of an “offensive” sign that led to its carrier, 61-year-old librarian Carol Kreck, to be expelled from John McCain’s town hall meeting in Denver, CO, today. What did this sign say?
I can see why that would be considered so offensive to warrant expulsion from an event billed as “open to the public.” You can watch the video of law enforcement dealing with the “threat” to John McCain.
