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).

The thing I like about it is that it cannot be deemed “racist” [although you never know]. George Bush was the “chimp” but reference to blacks as gorillas is apparently a testy subject.

Done by a leftist to make the right look bad. Yeah, because we all know that New Yorker cover of the Obamas worked, right?

That’s why I chose a “no socialism” bumper sticker awhile back - and then Rush said the same thing one day- object to zero’s politics or socialism that they can’t call racist, etc.

I just saw it near Van Nuys when I picked up my GF. They were on Victory...

It's about time the right showed some creativity. I suspect we will see quite a few of these popping up at the next wave of 'Tea Parties'...

Could be. I think it is backfiring.
