Welcome to Minneapolis/St. Paul

The Daily Show with Jon Stewart has erected a billboard in Minneapolis to welcome visitors to the Republican National Convention here in Minneapolis/St. Paul with the phrase "Welcome, rich white oligarchs!" When I received the email informing me of this, I first thought it surely must just be a joke, and that someone photoshopped this. I may have to see if I can actually find the billboard. According to my sources, it
is supposed to be located near Interstate 494 and Highway 77. I'll be sure to look for it the next time I am in that area.

It is supposed to be close to the airport and the Mall of America where the old white guys arriving should easily be able to see it!
