Obama's Posters

This is a fantastic article I found this morning.  These are just a few excerpts, so be sure to read the entire article.

"There is something unsettling and very familiar in the Obama poster campaign which has plastered his image over the country. The posters depict the same graphic closeup of the candidate with one block word either "Hope," "Change" or "Progress" at the bottom. I knew that I had seen this before, and then it came to me that this image appropriates the graphic style of totalitarian Soviet propaganda."

"Coincidentally or not, the website for the artist, Shepard Fairey, who designed Obama's posters is called Obey and boasts on its homepage, "Manufacturing quality dissent since 1989," and the artist bills himself as an agent of "worldwide propaganda delivery."

Well even the Faux Noise network admits that it had nothing to do with the Obama campaign


Faux Noise..... Another left wing moonbat.

If you research the story, you will see that the office was opened by these so-called "volunteers"


You mean the unpaid, UNASSOCIATED PEOPLE WHO HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE CAMPAIGN.

Tell me if those are not "volunteers" then what are they?

I am not a Republican. I am conservative.


You are a conservative, I am an American, the two are polar opposites.

Duh, campaigns are made up of volunteers.  You really should start reading the posts instead of your Obama-bot talking points.  LOL.

How sad.  More of your liberal tolerance, eh?

Ahh the traditional response of Republicans who were called on their BS and are trying to weasel out of proving their claims.Better to teach a loon to search, than to give him a false link.See above for the correct link. Or are loony loopy luddite lefties capable of that?   FYI - for the record, since you are new, I am not a Republican. I am conservative.


Not a loon thank you very much.

I realize its hard for you to keep track of your lies but you claimed his campaign flew it.


There go those 3 finger again! His campaign DID. The proof has been provided to you. My next statement may (or may not be since we have no photographic evidence to show he did) be true - that he did not embrace it. But then since you are calling me a liar, and the only thing I said was that he did not "endorse, authorize, or hug it", YOU then are saying he did?  :LOL: 

Now look at who is telling the lies! And about your own candidate! You are good! A poster child for abortion!  :LOL: 

I think I will send this to Obama so he can see what else his supporters are doing - with or without his approval!  :LOL:

No, and if you check the statement was not directed at you. You are just a stoned flower child.

No, not that either. I assumed it included me since you "taught a loon to search." And I'm sure that's all you think of me as.

Gee funny how in the other threads you are getting your panties in a knot about people using insults. I guess like most republican beliefs, it only applies when convenient.

On the original subject matter, and away from all this ridiculously pointless debate:

I, for one, want a poster like that of my ugly mug, in shades of brown, blue, and red, with the word BITCH in large, block letters.

Better contact that Obey company, see what I can get. maybe I'll wear a beret.

Asking a question is getting your panties in a knot? Weird. What other weird traits do you have?

BTW: Stoned Flower child is not an insult. it is a description. Or are you biggoted against them as well? Is there ANYONE you are NOT biggotted against?

Did your father beat you as a child? :LOL:
