I saw this recently and was moved to post it. First, the original sign which presents a typical arch-conservative meme. Then I will follow it with 20 rebuttal signs by reply. Maybe it will get starved for oxygen by Snowden-Syria, ... maybe it will get some airing.
It reads "God send us someone to cure aids, cancer, etc. etc." and replies "I did but you aborted them".
