DNC Erecting Creepy Giant Obama Sculpture

Forget the marble pillars, this time there will be a giant 16-foot sculpture of Obama made out of 15.5 tons of sand at the Democratic National Convention. Building a giant sand sculpture of a living leader might be considered a bit tacky with its worshipful implications, but building one during a hurricane in South Carolina is in particularly bad taste.

But if nothing else, at least Obama has found one “Shovel Ready Project”. And this isn’t even the creepiest giant Obama sand sculpture ever made. The winner of that particular competition is still Sudarsan Pattnaik with this nightmare made out of sand.

I recently read somewhere that Obama has awarded a large Stimulus grant to create jobs for sculptors.

They are going to create a memorial to LBJ, Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama on the reverse slope of Mount Rushmore.

Eventually, the Soviets *got it*...perhaps in our lifetimes, Cuba will too.

One of our favorite songs when the boys were little (from the Psalty tapes):

Don’t build your house on the sandy land
Don’t build it too near the shore
Oh it might be kind of nice
But you’ll have to do it twice
And you’ll have to build your house once more
You better build your house upon the rock
And put a sure foundation on the solid spot
And though the storms may come and go
Peace of God you’ll know.

Will they put giant posters with Obama’s picture on them outside the convention center?

Communists.

It's what they always do. They build huge, ego satisfying statues, or gargantuan posters of themselves and put them in public places. These images say, I am your god, I am larger than life. Bow down all ye peasants, be humble and obey.

Fortunately, these images are usually the first thing to be torn down, or blown to bits, by angry mobs once the murderers have been ripped from power.

Communists. It's what they always do. Here's the proof.

This is beyond bizarre. Will the delegates bow down to this Kim Jong Zero?

Straight from the mind of Valerie Jarrett, no doubt.

One can only wish that the unintended symbolism of a “castle made of sand” is apt here.

It would be a shame if the sprinklers above that were to “accidentally” malfunction.

Is this real, or is it satire?
