The Great Seal of Obamaland?

At a discussion with a dozen Democratic governors in Chicago on Friday morning, each of the governors was identified with a small name plate but Senator Barack Obama sat behind a low rostrum to which was attached an official-looking seal no one had seen before.

[Berlin_Freeper]

Obama's head is swelling so much it may eventually match his ears.

[econjack]

This could turn out to be a real cat fight, when King Obama meets Queen Pelosi to determine who actually will run the country.

[Bon mots]

Hitler dreamed up all of his own regalia, uniforms and insignia for the Nazis. Something about the left. He got the swastika idea from a tombstone he used to see on his way to school.

[bornred]

I bet that would make a swell lapel pin.

[weegee]

Closeup of the center...

[Caleb1411]

Just above the eagle’s head are the words “Vero Possumus,” roughly translated “Yes we can.” Not exactly E Pluribus Unum (Out of Many, One).

[Boston Tea Party]

Excellent, weegee! I’m laughing my head off!

[weegee]

Looks like the one Johnny Ramone, Republican, used to use...

[tet68]

Ohhhh, someone needs to put a possum in the center circle, maybe even Pogo.

[TLI]

Just above the eagle’s head are the words “Vero Possumus,” roughly translated “Yes we can.” Not exactly E Pluribus Unum (Out of Many, One), the motto on the presidential seal and the dollar bill. Then again, Mr. Obama is not the president.

No he is not the President. He is nuts.

[aphid]

[weegee]

And another variation...

[weegee]

[CougarGA7]

It should read “Pro bonus of civitas”

[irishjuggler]

If this jackass wins, I wouldn’t be surprised to see mandatory “Obama Youth” chapters in all of the public schools.

[aphid]

[RandallFlagg]

I like mine...

[weegee]

[TheWasteLand]

Looks like it’s the return of the Blue Eagle.

[vietvet67]

Takes alot of nerve to mess with OUR eagle like that.

What’s next? His own currency? Obamaland cartoons on saturday morning?

He disgusts me.

[GatorGirl]

That is actually quite frightening. Has any Presidential candidate ever adopted his own seal before? Strange!

[weegee]

[weegee]

Out with the old flag, in with the new Obama order.

[massgopguy]

I thought his name was CHANGE?

[livius]

Scarier and scarier. I think we’re underestimating his will to power. And I think few, even the Dems, fully understand what’s going to happen when he gets it.

[livius]

Muzzier and muzzier.

[Argus]

Just above the eagle’s head are the words “Vero Possumus,” roughly translated “Yes we can.”

"Vero, postremus sum" would be more like it.

[CougarGA7]

[rhema]

Raptus regaliter
Royally screwed

[irishjuggler]

Yep, it definitely resembles a Muslim crescent and star.

THE GREAT SEAL OF OBAMANATION



THE AUDACITY OF TRUTH ABOUT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA

[Nahanni]

Obama is a dangerous megalomaniac.

[andy58-in-nh]

OK, now that is scary... Obama Yourth???

WTF? What's next - their own marching song?

Tomorrow Belongs to Me...

[Shermy]

He has also been sweeping McCain’s blue and white themed cards put on lecturns...those whatchamacallits.

I liked his logo, thought it was the bext thing about his campaign. The stripes were like fields of wheat, homey.

[swarthyguy]

Bump. Now that is an interesting iconography, inadvertent, no doubt!

[peggybac]

[Amos the Prophet]

So, the center graphic on the obama seal is a direct take from the seal of the third reich?

[rightwinggoth]

jeez

i thought that this would be flame

sick

[swarthyguy]

In the Belly of the Green Bird is a great book, an incisive look at the Iraq war. Well worth reading....

When I looked at the logo, that's what popped out at me, the Obama logo in the belly of the bird.

The phrase in question comes from the Hadith, a foreword....and can be read online via googlebooks.

Even though the martyrs were killed in this life,
Their souls are alive and receiving provisions in the
Dwelling of Everlasting Life........
The Messenger of Allah said,
"Their souls are inside green birds that have lamps,
which are hanging below the Throne of Allah, and they wander about in Paradise wherever they wish".

Idle mind and all, maybe, and first impression of ObamaSeal.

[carmody]

That is PEPSI COLA’s LOGO & DESIGN ... go look at pepsi.com and compare it to Obama’s website ... it’s the same look, feel, colors, etc. Obama is selling a product not running for president.

[Hunton Peck]

“Vero Possumus,” roughly translated “Yes we can.”

I thought maybe it meant "Make like a possum (when the terrorists come)."

[rfp1234]

[NathanR]

That Eagle looks like it is holding a burning torch in one claw and arrows in the other. (The better to destroy his enemies with, I think.)

[deep]

This is getting scary.

[NathanR]

This is the actual logo of Obama Youth.

[AmericaUnited]

Maybe that’s the missing Seal from his birth certificate?...

[353FMG]

“Takes alot of nerve to mess with OUR eagle like that.”

Wait till he replaces the eagle with the Saudi symbol of two crossed swords and a palm tree.

[A Strict Constructionist]

Good job, use of small letter in his name is acceptable, use of all caps infringes on BAMA’s trademark and is insulting to TIDE fans.

[Biblebelter]

Personally, I think this Marxist just made a mess with a premature political ejaculation. If dead men burning in Hell could talk, Saddam Hussein would tell Barry that you do not start the personality cult stuff until you get the keys to the military, the federal police, and the intelligence service.
