More "I Built This Business" Signs Pop Up in West Texas 9/4/12

Other local business are following suit after oil industry mogul, Clayton Williams, puts up a sign addressing some of President Obama's remarks about businesses.

The politically motivated signs read, "I built this business without government help, Obama can kiss my grill" that's up at "The Bar" in downtown Midland.

A Midland pipe company owner's sign reads, " I built this business, Obama can kiss my pipe."

These signs come after Williams, CEO and president of Clayton Williams Energy, put up a small billboard near his offices stating, "I built this business, Obama can kiss my rig!"

Williams said the signs are his way of making humor of the president's controversial remarks in which Obama stated, "If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. If you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen."
