It can’t be mere coincidence that his dreck so closely resembles Soviet posters of the 30s, especially that OBEY one with the Empty Suit’s eyes staring out like those of Big Brother.

The next four years are going to be fun. We have an idiot for president and his staff are chicago mobsters. His followers on the other hand are complete morons.

Here are some others by Obama's icon artist, Shepard Fairey. They're of Lenin, Mao and Stalin. I tried posting the images directly, but for some reason they vanish.

so both Obama and Hillary have connections to the Black Panthers?

This artist Fairey makes me want to puke over the fake humility.

I pray, as an artist, an art teacher, and everything else that I am....that this position does not come about. It will definitely be another means of government control where it should not be. The direction it would take would be devastating to Art and Culture in our country....but the fact that Obama is seemingly taking office without anyone officially checking into his "legal eligibility" (birth cert) indicates there is far more at stake here. If this guy get inaugurated, it will take a miracle from the hand of God to keep our country from devastation.

THAT is why it is so unsettling. It caught me, but I was still trying to put my finger on it.

Reverend Wright's "Black Liberation" (a revolutionary-communist political ideology) was shared by Bill Ayers, the Weather Underground, the Black Panthers (new and old), the Black Liberation Army, the Nation Of Islam, and, it could be argued, even Charles Manson via his 'Helter Skelter' fantasy. Helter Skelter was about inciting a race-based revolutionary in which Blacks would come out on top and take over the country. That is pretty much exactly what the Weather Underground and these others were/are about.

"Their founding document [the Weather Underground's] called for the establishment of a "white fighting force" to be allied with the "Black Liberation Movement" and other "anti-colonial" movements[1] to achieve "the destruction of US imperialism and the achievement of a classless world: world communism."..."-Berger, Dan (2006). Outlaws of America: The Weather Underground and the Politics of Solidarity. AK Press, 95.

From the New York Times, August 24, 2003

"they [the Weather Underground] employed revolutionary jargon, advocated armed struggle and black liberation and began bombing buildings, taking responsibility for at least 20 attacks. Estimates of their number ranged at times from several dozen to several hundred."

Helter Skelter:
"Helter Skelter would begin, according to one of Charlie's devotees, 'with the black man going into white people's homes and ripping off the white people, physically destroying them. A couple of spades from Watts would come up into the Bel Air and Beverly Hills district...and just really wipe some people out, just cutting bodies up and smearing blood and writing things on the wall in blood...all kinds of super-atrocious crimes that would really make the white man mad...until there was open revolution in the streets, until they finally won and took over. Then the black man would assume the white man's karma. He would then be the establishment'..." http://www.trutv.com/library/crime/serial_killers/notorious/manson/skelter_6.html

Confession (Manson Family)
When they got in the house, Susan [Atkins] said that in the living room there was a man on the couch and a woman on the chair reading. Then some of Susan's group stayed in the living room, while Susan went into the bedroom where Sharon was sitting on the bed talking to Jay Sebring. They quickly put nooses over Sharon and Jay's heads so that if they moved they would choke.

Frykowski ran for the door. "He was full of blood," she said and claimed that she had stabbed him three or four times. "He was bleeding and he ran to the front part, and would you believe that he was there hollering 'Help, help, somebody please help me,' and nobody came? Then we finished him off."

"Sharon was the last to die," Susan said with a laugh as she described how Sharon was begging her, " Please don't kill me. Please don't kill me. I don't want to die. I want to live. I want to have my baby. I want to have my baby."

Susan said she just looked at Sharon straight in the eye and said, "Look, bitch, I don't care about you. I don't care if you're going to have a baby. You had better be ready. You're going to die and I don't feel anything about it...In a few minutes I killed her."

Susan said she saw that there was Sharon's blood on her hand and she tasted it. "Wow, what a trip! To taste death, and yet give life."

Obama needs to forget Lincoln and build his inauguration around a Clement Atlee theme.

Instead he is building it around a Joe Stalin theme.

If this was done with no PC. Classical Music, Shakespeare and so forth, I might be amenable to it but...
