The Republican National Committee, in their continued attacks of the Obama administration’s stimulus plan, has created a series of “Wanted” posters — one for each of 33 states — showing Vice President Biden in a sheriff’s hat alongside the number of jobs lost in that state since the stimulus passed.

The idea is a riff off of a speech President Obama gave back in March.

“Around the White House we call him ‘The Sheriff’ because if you’re misusing taxpayer money, you’ll have to answer to him,” Obama said to a group of DOT employees.

In a blog post, the RNC encouraged supporters to send the signs around:

So mount up, posse, and send your state’s WANTED poster to your friends and family. The way the tumbleweeds are rolling through Stimulus Jobs Valley, Sheriff Biden’s going to need all of the help he can get!
