Obama Joker Poster Popping Up In Los Angeles
News Busters ^ | 08/03/2009 | Noel Sheppard

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

Actually....if you analyze the Joker character in Dark Knight....the almost complete audience acceptance in the joker...drives him to be the anti-hero and a almost-believable person. Then you start to doubt Batman and his vision of truthfulness and trust.

The Joker is trying to sell you something...and by the end....you realize you really didn’t want to buy into his argument. The Batman was right....as he always was.

So the suggestion in this graphic....is that Obama is playing the anti-hero...trying to sell you socialism. The problem is...it probably isn’t socialism in the end. You reach a point of realizing you never understood what he was selling.

Just waiting for the “That’s RACIST!!!” rants from the media.

Probably George Bush’s fault.

What is “interesting” is that not one TV news network and/or radio talk show host that I know of has touched the Kenyan BC issue...please, correct me “if” I am wrong.

It’s really interesting that you say that because I remember on here someone posting that after they saw the Dark Knight, they thought Batman’s role was similar to George Bush’s role. I distinctly remember someone drawing that compaarison back then.

Hmmm....

Yes, and I would like to see it plastered around Westwood (UCLA) and the Peoples’ Republik of Santa Monica, just to name two Obamaland hotspots.

I hope this poster is plastered over every inch of the West side and right over the disgusting Robbie Conal posters that blanketed the city.

Caught a few minutes of Rush today and he was walking about this.

He said the tipping point for BO will be when it becomes cool to mock him.

Well, remember what the Michael Caine character said, that sometimes people just want to watch the world burn. That’s exactly what Obama is all about-—chaos, destruction, “redistribution of wealth.”
