Have you seen this poster?
Apparently, it's beginning to appear in odd places in Los Angeles, but nobody seems to know who's responsible for it.
Radio host Tammy Bruce posted some pictures of this odd creation at her blog Saturday morning (h/t Pamela Geller) leading me to investigate further.
At this point, all I could find on the subject was an April 25 article from Bedlam Magazine:
A poster of Barack Obama in Heath Ledger-style Joker make-up with the legend 'Socialism' beneath it has been popping up recently on surfaces around L.A. It does not appear to be in the same category as the many benign take-offs on the Shepard Fairey 'Hope' poster, such as the one by Australian James Lillis (more of a straightforward spoof that merely substituted a Shepardized image of Heath Ledger as Joker on the Obama poster).

lulz, saved to my irfanview.
How does it make us look bad?
Very funny. Caption is great!

What FSE said.
ROTFLMBO! You could use it as proof the Loch Ness monster exists, too, I reckon.
Smooth kill, good work.
The SS is not known for being politically biased. KC is correct. It's a mater of numbers.
No matter who the President is, there are probably a million Americans who would shoot him if they felt they could get away with it. If you were a bodyguard who had to worry about that, would you be investigating a poster referencing a character who says in the movie that he cut his own face up? I would be looking for real threats, and so will the SS.
YES! Take the fight to the enemy, early, often and with rock-solid conviction.
OUTDATED????
Laurel and Hardy could NEVER be “outdated”. Their humor is timeless. They are funnier than most ‘comedians’ on film today.
I’ll ignore that “hand wringer” comment, there are some people around here that would not have information or where to look into Obamas past if it were not for my efforts, I just don’t go bragging about it as much as others.
And I deliberately want my name out of circulation, I get approached all the time both on the web and here in Wasilla so I quite often just clam up and refuse to back my self up so its possible some people think I’m a troll, heck I would prefer that they do, gets me deeper into their mind.
and btw Lucy T, good morning, we will have a fun 72 hours I do believe.
That Shamwow will soak up hooker blood in nothing flat.
That is their tactic.
Make the gun owners look like terrorists.
Make the anti-zero’s look like bias bible thumpers.
Make the anti-raising tax citizens look like anti-patriots.
To the everyday “conservative” that only watch TV or
Letterman, they believe their own people are doing bad things
and they don’t blame the leftist that are actually doing it.
We just have to pick our battles.
Personally, I’m all for doing whatever it takes to expose the liar(s).
Personally, I don’t even care if it is the left doing it. I’m just saying...be aware
and don’t be distracted.
