Obama

Unless you've never been around adolescent boys, you've seen Obama's symbol before.

"My first thought was goatse."

I thought so too. I can't figure out whether Obama's politics invoke the goatse image or the actual sign. It might be a combination of both.

I used to think there was dignity in all human labor, but that was before I saw the guy who does artificial insemination on the elephants at the zoo. That is one job even Mike Rowe would not perform...

Obamalamadingdong, the modern Hitler/antichrist/messiah want to be has his own hand salute for the masses. Where does this guy think he is...

NAZI Germany in 1936?

I am sure this massive "modern", "progressive" ersatz NAZI hand salute/worship by mindless masses of and for Obamamessiah done in unison is going to go over just swell with American voters... NOT.

The next thing/bright idea his advisors will come up with will be precision torch rallies done at night accompanied by rousing drum marching music. For the heck of it they might even throw in some large bonfire book burning pyres.

Obama and his campaign have jumped the shark.

It's not Obama’s campaign doing this, it's some marketing firm, and it may be more anti-Obama than anything.

Still I'm spreading the word about the new hand sign!
