Burning Man Obama is a flaming shame

U.S. President Barack Obama is scheduled to arrive in Beijing, China on Sunday, November 15 and in preparation for the event, Chinese artist Liu Bolin constructed and then set alight his eerily evocative "Burning Man Obama" sculpture which he claims represents Obama's worldwide influence.

Showing his admiration, Liu Bolin said, "Obama is a very interesting and perspective leader. He is so hot now that I decided to impress this in "Burning Man Obama" work. Yes, setting something on fire can have negative connotations, but this piece represents energy and life that Obama has given to the world. We're eager to see what he can do for China and U.S. relations."

Made of bronze and modeled after an Obama Time Magazine "Man of the Year" cover, the statue is peppered with tiny holes for gas flames which engulf the statue giving it a nightmarish and satanic look unintended by the artist.

"After the initial emotional jolt for the viewer is over, one's mind starts wandering over the rumors concerning Obama's preferred sexual orientation (flaming gay), his overseeing of the destruction of America by stripping her of her assets (fire sale), his Apologize-for-America world tours (flaming shame), what the military must be thinking of him right now for his continuous stalling on Afghanistan (burning bastard), his silent, communist, czar-laden coup (blazing lunatic), his desire to push the destructive global warming agenda on us even as we enter a new Ice age (hottest hoax around) and his total disregard for his Presidential oath to uphold, protect, defend and preserve the Constitution of the United States (liar, liar, pants-on-fire)" --from the article.

FTA “nightmarish and satanic”. Great description of Zero’s term in office.

IBTZ, but hoping there is no Zot.

I read this elsewhere yesterday and had a complete different take on what this meant.

The Chinese have figured out the true Obama: Burning Man-Obama

“The artist explains that the sculpture represents U.S. President Barack Obama’s impact on the world!”

Obama the Burning Man who leaves charred ruin in is wake and can’t even call the FT Hood extremist by his true name: Islamic Terrorist! Does this remind you of the legend of Nero?

If you look closely at the statue, his pants are on fire - so I think the liar liar pants on fire is a literal interpretation.

It's just plain weird (and, of course, a little creepy). I can't recall any other statue (artwork) that I've seen that was on fire (certainly not of a president).

This statue is wrong and should be destroyed. It is open to so many interpretations.

In this photo he appears to be growing horns.
The holes look like bullet holes (Sonny Corleone)

Wonder if obama will bring it to the white hut and use it as a heating source. The hope and change fireplace.

One hole would have sufficed.

He will undoubtedly be quite amused, and pleased.

Thank You Satan 1:51

I just notice that after you pointed it out. LOL I wonder if the artist considered Slick Willie.

BUMP

Glad the flaming Obama thread lives on!

I didn’t notice the first time that his “pant are on fire” like the liar liar he is!

The statue reminds me of the figures often burned in effigy by hostile persons. I like this statue, it speaks volumes!

Burn Baby Obama, Burn!

Found this celebrity wallpaper online. Could it be a tie-in to the statue?

That is neat. People are so creative in their feelings about O. Even if that’s not supposed to be him in the 666 fire, looks like him.
