Obama Joker Face Bumps President’s Level of “Cool”
NewsReal Blog ^ | August 5, 2009 | Chris Yogerst

By now everyone has seen the new Obama/Socialism poster, which has stirred up quite the controversy. This sure seems strange, when one considers the massive number of George W. Bush posters that have publicly portrayed him as Hitler, a Vampire, or a criminal, among other things. As far as the hypocritical left is concerned, it is perfectly okay to make fun of a Republican president. But when there is a Democrat in office, ridicule becomes a serious offense.

Last night Greg Gutfeld, host of the Fox News program “Red Eye,” spoke about the Obama poster:

“[T]his Obama Joker face only elevates his hip persona. And it’s honest. Seriously, we live in a culture where anti-heroes have replaced heroes. Hence, Ledger’s Joker is far cooler than Bale’s Batman…. The Joker scoffed at tradition, after all. He revels in postmodern humor. And more important, he was played by a dead guy. You can’t get any cooler than that …”

Alinksy’s ridicule and they hate it when it is used against them.

Obama is a evil joke. He is not hip.

“When people laugh at you in politics you’re done.”

Et tu, Alinsky?

A dagger has two edges.

Saul shoulda thought of that.

What is missing from the JOKER/BEPLN poster is a half smoked cigarette dangling from the purple lips of this big eared, purple lips stuck on marxist, Rev Wright sermons, dumb ass...

He attended Wrights church for 20 years... 20 x 52 is 1,040 potential sermons. Even if he was there 50% of the sermons that would be 520 times he heard Black Liberation Theology ranted about on Sunday. What do you expect from this turd and his equally stuck on hate America wife?

When will the Michell cartoon appear?

Vanity Fair magazine printed a very unflattering and sinister artist’s rendering of G.W.Bush as “the Joker” while Bush was still POTUS, and unsurprisingly, no one uttered a word in W’s defense. Turn about is fair play, unless you’re a sissy navel-gazing metrosexual libtard. They don’t like their own tactics used on themselves. Even the exact same tactic! Cry babies. And these wimps are in charge of our nat’l defense. God help us all survive until Jan.20th, 2013.

It was pointed out to me today that the Joker was an Anarchist, not a Socialist. I pointed out that evil is evil.

Yes, this has gone “viral,” as they say, and now Zero is the object of ridicule. But it’s a particularly black ridicule (no pun intended), as the Joker was a thug, a thief, and completely without conscience. Hmmm. Truth hurts, don’t it Barry?

obama poster as hitler...not such a bad idea...if you take the time to think about it, it fits with what he’s been doing for the last 6 months...

He’s more like Davros, creator of the Daleks, than Hitler.

I think the one liberal “friend” I have on FB from high school has my posts on “ignore”! lol He never comments on my posts no matter how controversial. Most other friends do at some point.
