Obama Health Care Logo Reminiscent of the Nazi's?

Well I was just having a conversation with a friend and he brought up that Rush and some other people are saying how the Obama Care Logo looks like it was modeled after a Nazi logo. I didn't believe him and decided to check up on it myself. Well to my surprise.

First is the Nazi Logo

Second is the Obama Logo

Now this is what I have a problem with, whether it is a mistake or whatever being in the position that he is in they should have payed more attention to what the history is.

Mistake, or subliminal messing? I don't know you be the judge.

I think he should use this logo instead.

That one is good too.

Just crazy stuff is going on, first we have rat "disinfo" out to the white house about health care and now we have this logo that looks like it is reminiscent of the Nazi's.

Something ain't right.

The similarity is very striking. Add to it the whole quarantine issue as well

and we have the makings for something not good.

You know, all this stuff is happening all around us and it's totally unreal. The thought is so far out there that you have to ask yourself if you are insane for even thinking about it.

But when you connect the dots the thought isn't so insane anymore.

Remember thses MTV commercials?

I haven't watched MTV since I was in High School, when they actually did play some music videos.

Did those come out when Bush was in office?

They came in April of 2008 when Bush was still in office. Here's an article on it.

Interesting, so they just popped up with nothing to associate it too. That is a new twist. I wonder what the true purpose of the ads were for though.

I guess we won't ever know, although the message is correct.

Damn!
Obama is a Nazi bastard!
This is my opinion of course.

It's called a Caduceus, it's not remotely new.

Obama's campagin logo is also very similar to the "Wave" logo from this 70's film about cults and such

Obviously it the medical symbol has been around for a while.

But look at the similarities between the Nazi Eagle Logo and Obama's Health Care Logo. The Obama logo at the bottom with the medical symbol rising above it?

Is it just a gross over look of what it somewhat resembles, or is it intentional? I mean he does want people to rat their friends out for spreading "disinfo" about his health care plan.

Just some information on Obama's logo.

The Obama ’08 assignment began in late 2006, when Sender’s firm was hired by MODE, a Chicago-based motion design studio with an existing relationship with David Axelrod, the Obama campaign’s chief strategist.

Given two weeks to develop design options, Sender and two designers—Andy Keene and Amanda Gentry—produced multiple logos for consideration by the campaign, including a version of the now-famous “O” mark—a landscape in which of blue and red are united within the candidate’s last-name initial. The team’s refined Obama ‘08 logo made its official debut on February 10, 2007, when (then) Senator Barack Obama announced his candidacy for president in Springfield, Il.

Has couple videos on page as well explaining logo.

Guess his staff never imagined the Nazi resemblance when they combined obama's logo with the healthcare logo, or did they?

Good link, now we know where his logo came from.

Now about them combining the two and it resembling the Nazi one, is something up for debate.

I would say it is sensationalism, but when you connect the dots it makes me think differently.

Maybe just an honest mistake? Or are the people running this country that ignorant of history?

I'm not sure why it would be intentional... if you were trying to resurrect an unpopular movement; would you use similar imagery?

I can certainly see the resemblance.

But it's the "Logo" of medicine, combined with the Obama logo. As a casual graphic designer I'd have to say it's most likely a coincidence. It seems like a lazy effort at combining the logos.

I also feel like I'm insane for thinking the way I do these days. I would have never believed that our country could ever become so frightening. I find myself wondering if the Jewish people felt this way as things began to change under Hitler. The logo only scares me more. Either they are completely ignorant of history, or this is the most blatant arrogance I have ever witnessed. Again, Hitler was just as blatant as this administration.

we know which one rush prefers!

One is the international symbol for medicine, and one is an O standing for his name, this thread is a waste of time, sorry for even commenting, but the two logos are not even remotely related, the fact that you even see a similarity proves to me you are probably listening to rush limbaugh and believing every word he says, the Obama nazi connection is fiction, in fact there are hundreds of false spam 'Obama nazi' posts on craigslist every day, some feel it is bitter republicans, and it probably is, but if you notice they are posted every minute like clockwork, so it is an organized spam effort, isn't changing my mind, I don't mind the joker posters in LA, heading towards socialism? maybe, but saying a black president is a nazi is like saying the kkk are feeding the poor in africa, if your talk trash about the president of the united states, deal with facts, give some examples that aren't tabloid journalism.

It very well could be, we aren't mind readers, but a "lazy" mistake such as this one is unacceptable, in my opinion.

reply to post by sickofitall2012


Yea, I don't know what is going on, the admin is very blatant in their actions, but they couldn't even be this blatant could they?

My sane side says, as eNumbra said, a lazy design mistake, then there is also the side that says be even more aware of what is going on.

I don't know it's creepy either way.
