LA Marathoners see epic Obama scandal "mile markers"
IJ Review ^ | March 16, 2015 | Michael Hausam

The Los Angeles Marathon was held Sunday, starting at Dodger Stadium, winding through downtown LA and Hollywood, and finishing in Santa Monica. Part of the uniqueness of the course is the entertainment and spectacle along the route.

Guerrilla street artist Sabo, added a little something extra for this year’s participants: street_19

Each of the sixteen posters copied the style of the marketing materials for the race. Here’s the logo from the race organizers: Screen Shot 2015-03-16 at 10.50.47 AM

And here’s the slightly revised one that was on the bottom of each of the posters: Screen Shot 2015-03-16 at 10.51.53 AM

Each headline was different depending on the topic: street_27

They made reference to the various difficulties that the administration has had to address: street_23

And Solyndra: street_20

As well as NSA spying: street_12

And ISIS: street_10

The posters were put up Saturday night before the race in Chinatown, Hollywood, and in Brentwood: street_03

They made reference to economic issues: street_06

And law-enforcement scandals: street_15

There were 16 different posters altogether, each one marking a different significant issue that has occurred over the last six years.

If the runners just read the LA Times watch TV news, they may not be familiar with such things/events.

but once the find out they’ll be blaming this for their lousy time all year ;-) Hope someone in the LA area makes sure this guy Sabo doesn’t run out of supplies for his artistic endeavors for the next 20 years or so.

They could have done a Marathon to Chicago, with all the material available.

Excellently done. Just the type of back ground noise that needs to be left on.

George Will famously said that Bill Clinton may have not been the worst president, but he was the worst person to be president. Obama has him beat on both counts. Bubba cared only for what was going on between his legs; Hussein actually believes the Marxist claptrap he imposes on the country.

Heh... of course, the whole works is still going into the sea, and those who take a long fond look back will be turned into pillars of salt.
