Barack Obama, laughingstock
The American Thinker ^ | August 02, 2009 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on 08/03/2009 3:10:09 AM PDT by Scanian

It is starting. Open mockery of Barack Obama, as disillusionment sets in with the man, his policies, and the phony image of a race-healing, brilliant, scholarly, middle-of-the-roader.

Via Tammy Bruce, Atlas Shrugged and Newsbusters (three terrific conservative sites) and Bedlam Magazine (an arts site) comes news of a poster spreading across Los Angeles, depicting Obama as a Heath Ledger Joker, and carrying the caption "Socialist."

Noel Sheppard of Newsbusters includes pictures of the actual posters in use:

There will more of this. Count on it. Obama's cool image is so 2008. It's a long way down from lowering the oceans to laughingstock.

LOL. Serves him right. How does Alinsky feel when it is pointed at you, Zero?

The American Voter is the true laughingstock in all this.

Ridicule more then anything else will reduce an individual’s stature in the eyes of others. No one wants to be associated with someone or even something which the majority of people consider to be “not serious”

"The American Voter is the true laughingstock in all this."

Only the idiot voters that voted for for him.

Only slighty more than 1/2 of them. The other 1/2 of us tried to save this country.

Amen!!! As dear leader’s poll numbers have begun to tank,
I initially had planned on taking the high road and not
rubbing it in the faces of the obama voters I happen to know.
But on second thought, I’m thinking I’m gonna instead try
to make their lives miserable......cause that’s what their incredibly STUPID vote has done to this country.

I caught a snippet of Fox’s roundtable this weekend, with Moira Laisson of (NPR). Her take on O’s falling numbers: it’s all Congress’ fault for not following his orders. Clearly she’ll follow O off the nearest cliff, no questions asked.

After the first ten minutes over a year ago, I never listened to him again but he's such a foppish character I click into AP News almost every morning to see what goofy grin or effeminate posture he is displaying today.

Here he is mugging with a lemon.

And doing that girly walk with a peach.

I actually have a file of these things now.

Clicked your “girly walk with a peach” link to Yahoo, and the first photo in series is Obama with his nose in the air, and George Washington is burning a hole in the back of his head, like a Presidential portrait of Dorian Gray or something, lol.

Somehow, I don’t think this is the impression that photograph was intended to convey.

They’re still trying to get those Messiah shots of Obama but its clear their hearts aren’t in it. AP photographers are doing parodies of him now. Inadvertently. I think. But maybe not. They might have had their fill of him too.

Oh, really? What about the idiots who voted for McStupid in the primary? I know some were rats crossing over, but many were "Republicans". They are part of the laughingstock too, aren't they?

Some like to portray obuma as the next Lincoln. He’ll mirror Lincoln in only one aspect: The most hated man of his time. And obuma deserves every sling and arrow - he is reintroducing slavery.

Here's one of my favorite pictures of the former Governor, talking about both of her guns or ladies, depending on the terminology:
