I know Obama has said that words are pretty important. But so are symbols. I found this interesting. The symbol of Stalin/Lenin had similar “star” as the Obama poster at http://pentdego.com/obama.aspx

The artist’s mark: Andre the Giant’s face in a star. “OBEY”. The Giant poster is just skateboarder art, and the same artist has done the famous Obama posters as well. Not marxism, just marketable art for the skateboarder market.

See these threads on the artist, Shepard Fairey:

http://www.freerepublic.com/tag/fairey/index?tab=articles

Fairey is another AmeriKKKa-hating Marxist friend-of-Obama. He has raised over $400,000 for Obama's campaign.



Obama has written Fairey that he admires "the political messages involved in your work."
