    Hacked signs urge motorists to "Impeach Obama"
    ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Anchorage drivers got a surprise when electronic road construction signs normally alerting them to traffic work instead urged them to "Impeach Obama."
    Several of the signs were hacked either late Wednesday or early Thursday.
    The state Department of Transportation said it had not previously locked the control boxes on the signs, and never had a reason to do so until now.
    Anyone caught tampering with a sign could face a misdemeanor charge of criminal mischief.

    If the patriots who did this are caught, they'll probably get charged with a 'hate crime'.

    Class 4 misdemeanor - "Public Mischief" IF they get caught.

    With all the law enforcement officers in Alaska, I'm sure catching this guy is high on the priority list. (no sarcasm smilie)

    So that's like what, $150 and community service if the Judge is in a bad mood, assuming you don't just have your lawyer take the DA to the "gentleman's club" and get it dropped entirely?
