Obama Joker Poster Popping Up in LA!

Have you seen this poster?

Apparently, it's beginning to appear in odd places in Los Angeles, but nobody seems to know who's responsible for it.

Radio host Tammy Bruce posted some pictures of this odd creation at her blog Saturday morning (h/t Pamela Geller) leading me to investigate further.

At this point, all I could find on the subject was an April 25 article from Bedlam Magazine:

A poster of Barack Obama in Heath Ledger-style Joker make-up with the legend 'Socialism' beneath it has been popping up recently on surfaces around L.A. It does not appear to be in the same categ

Looks like that fine sparkle of "hope" and "change" is starting to wear off and those that didn't see who BHO really was before are starting to and they don't like it.... I wonder if this will start a revolution or be quietly sweeped away, down played to give the appearance all is still great.

How quickly can those that have the BHO "Yes we can" bumper stickers begin scrapping them off their car(s)?? Think this is a sign of a grass roots revolt? Couple this with the recent town-hall protests, could the real "change" be coming??

I'm curious about your statement. Do you really think it will be better? I'm open minded enough to consider your thoughts on this. Why do you think it would be better and who would it be better for?

Looking like Obama's really stepped on some toes.

Wonder if his reprimand of Israel's murderous 'settlement' programme was the tipping point ?

.. resulting in this literal campaign to oust Obama

e.g. the numerous 'Birth Certificate' threads which now dominate ATS

and the 'posters'

not to mention Sinclair's claims and book


Gee, wonder who Obama's annoyed by standing up to them ?

No prizes for guessing who

It's just another part of the far right's strategy to fight the Obama administration, like the "birther" movement and the staged Town Hall disruptions.

Obama is no Socialist, he's a corporate capitalist, like just about every other American politician.

Which is OK by me, as I'm not much of a Socialist myself.

Really though, I have to wonder if any Democratic President would have been tagged with the same label - the far right is very organized and very skilled at manipulating people's emotions.

They know if you lie loudly and repeatedly enough, some people will believe it, especially if the lie meshes with their existing biases.

Well, ATS seems keen to assist

is anyone else as sick of the 'birther' threads as I am ?

The only compensation is waiting to see how many 'birth certificate' threads will be permitted to run on ATS simultaneously before someone finally realises that the overkill has KILLED intelligent people's interest in the matter, which has now become nothing more than a joke

Why do these people never .. never .. learn when to stop ?

I think Obama is about Captialism for the super rich and Socialism for the super poor, the only 2 classes that will exist in America not too long in the future.

It will be a horrible two-tiered system.

Are you daft? You think this was posted by someone who voted for Obama?

Someone prints up some pictures and posts them in LA and you think it's going to start a revolution?

What *IS* there to *BE* swept away?

Dude, you are a hoot. To assume this is being done by those who supported BHO during the campaign is just ridiculous.

Occams Razor my friend... Occams Razor

I sure hope so. The sooner he boards that plane back to Chicago or Kenya the better. He can take Biden, Rham, Pelosi, Reid, and Kennedy with him too.

Listen to the two of you with such conveniently short memories.

Think any conservatives have forgotten the all-out Bush bashing that went on for years (not months)? Well, we haven't. And so as long as obama keeps failing to live up to his pre-election messiah billing by providing (daily) excellent reasons to doubt him and criticize him, that's what you will continue to see.



Agreed, some of it is ridiculous, but then so was the Bush-bashing (including his wife and children) that - like I said - went on for years.

I had to upload this and share it.

Whether I believe in him or not, this poster is funny.

Thanks for posting the pic.

I really was trying to limit how much I posted on my first thread.

Someone that voted for BHO? What, you don't think some have woken up to realize they got taken for a major ride by a guy that has mastered tricks used by used car salesman to get every one of his elected positions (except community organizer as that was just something to sign-up for at the YMCA).

I have confidence that there are those realizing that the change they hoped for has been exchanged for debt and an even Bigger "Big" Brother then they had before. Some of course will continue to drink the "this can't be true" flavor-aide and ignore the stench coming from rotting promises.

No problem.

I kept telling everyone who was talking about Obama being a change, that's he's just as much full of crap as all the rest of the politicians.

He's run by the same arrogant masters who run all the President's.

His lies were just prettier and more motivated.

The only "Change" he's going to bring, is what he is told to do, because he's nothing more than a puppet, like every single President before him.

The last President I respected, and even he was iffy, was John F Kennedy.

You saw what they did to J.F.K. for doing the right thing for the people.

Vote Garfield for President 2012

To me, there is no "lesser of two evils" when it comes to politics, it's who's closest to actually telling the truth.

Can you guess who I voted for this last election?

I will give you a few clues.

He's orange, cartoon, feline, loves lasagna, kicks Odie, tortures Nermal, irritates Jon Arbuckle just because it's fun, and rarely gets out of the recliner.

You see, to me, if a politician is not going to do anything for anyone else, is going to abuse and torture the people watching him, as well as the people he or she is responsible for, and does it all for cheap laughs, well, I want that to be someone who at least is more real than 99% of the politicians on Capitol Hill.

For those throwing rocks for 8 years, I hope you also changed your glass house in for something a little more sturdy as there is a 100% chance that you and your prez won't be getting the benefit of the doubt for very much.

Oh, I get it...

Obama=Socialism=The Joker

The right-wingers are living in a very weird fantasy world.

That chant is stuck in my head now! Oleeeee, ole ole ole.... Ugh! Comes from watching too much football.

Not sure it's a weird fantasy world. Kind of calling it like it is.
