Barack Obama's presidential campaign raised eyebrows and elicited snickers Friday when it unveiled the Obamamania version of the presidential seal.

Just like Hillary did - he thinks he is ALREADY PRESIDENT and is in essence demanding he be treated as such.

November’s “election” is a mere formality which, if it should not go his way, will no doubt be trampled into the dust.

This guy and his sponsors have NO PLAN TO DO ANYTHING BUT SEIZE THE WHITE HOUSE - by force if necessary.

Obama is a preening, narcissistic tyrant in the making.

His wife is already there.

Obama’s background: Radical Religious Ties, Questionable Business Associates, Extreme Liberals Views, No Military Experience, Limited Experience in Washington, Drug Abuse, and has managed to get a pass by the media on every one of the major issues.

You can kiss our culture goodbye with his lunatic driving the bus.

The Law:

18 USC Sec. 713 ...
(a) Whoever knowingly displays any printed or other likeness of the great seal of the United States, or of the seals of the President or the Vice President of the United States, or the seal of the United States Senate, or the seal of the United States House of Representatives, or the seal of the United States Congress, or any facsimile thereof, in, or in connection with, any advertisement, poster, circular, book, pamphlet, or other publication, public meeting, play, motion picture, telecast, or other production, or on any building, monument, or stationery, for the purpose of conveying, or in a manner reasonably calculated to convey, a false impression of sponsorship or approval by the Government of the United States or by any department, agency, or instrumentality thereof, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than six months, or both.

(b) Whoever, except as authorized under regulations promulgated by the President and published in the Federal Register, knowingly manufactures, reproduces, sells, or purchases for resale, either separately or appended to any article manufactured or sold, any likeness of the seals of the President or Vice President, or any substantial part thereof, except for manufacture or sale of the article for the official use of the Government of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than six months, or both.

Prison for six months? Hmmmm...

An appropriate title for his book should have been: The Audacity of Obama.

This is an example of another Marxist/Socialist/Communist tactic to inject similar words and phrases into our language with new meaning, like "contributions" for more taxes, past "dues" for the UN, reparations, etc. to placate and prepare the dumbed down masses for new hope and change. Yes.

Of course only a racist would criticize Obama for breaking the law. Like other Democrats, he is above the law.

Where are the Obamabots now?

That’s really just a facsimile of the presidential seal we should all ignore it and focus on the real issues.

Pointing this out only make us appear bitter and vindictive I don’t see how it could help our cause.

Notice what was removed from the crest. I guess if its not good enough for his lapel, its not good enough for his seal.

No, I think it means an exact copy. This is like putting someone’s image on a fake dollar bill.

Hmmm ...

What is it that is replacing the flag? It looks like three pages of a book.

I wonder what book it signifies? It doesn’t look like the constitution. Is there an official explanation from the messiah?

Hitler had a great design team, too.

“Pointing this out only make us appear bitter and vindictive I don’t see how it could help our cause.”

Was this said with sarcasm (I hope)? I’d hate to think we need to consider whether we pass Obama’s bitter and vindictive test everytime we notice what he’s doing and make comment on it.
