Holy cow!

I don't see where this does conservatives any favors though.

So what? He can dish it, the only problem seems to be that he can’t take it.

Of course, the Left would never portray worse things:

Free speech. Can’t portray GWB as a chimp and expect to leave BHO untouched.

Oh, big deal!

This is nothing compared to how the Left portrayed Bush when he was in office.

They can dish it out, but they can’t take it.

A Grand Junction billboard depicting President Barack Obama as a terrorist, a gangster, a Mexican bandit and a gay man is getting national attention.

Pretty judgmental of the paper. Nowhere on the billboard does it say that is a drawing of Obama (at least that I can see). They must think it really looks like him. And why do they think the last guy is gay, or even a man? Those offended by the billboard are projecting their prejudices onto this contemporary artwork. I hope the artist applied for a grant from the National Endowment of the Arts.

It is clever, but from an advertising standpoint, it’s too busy.
It contains multiple messages, which is good, but it takes time to absorb all that.

A speeding motorist would not have time to take it all in. Maybe it is posted at an intersection where people have more than 1-2 seconds to soak it all in.

Mesa County Democratic Party Chairwoman Martelle Daniels called the billboard racist and homophobic,

Well, should 0h0m0 have been shown as White? As for 0h0m0phobic, the truth stings, doesn't it?

“It’s beyond disrespectful,” Daniels said. “You would like to think that we all would show respect for our commander-in-chief, but this is just beyond that. It’s racist, it’s homophobic, and it’s really cowardly.”

Ah, like the "respect" you showed and still showing President Bush? Your Child-in-Chief attacks on his predecessor are, per your expression, cowardly!

Obama is narcissistic enough it would’ve worked just as well if they were all shown in bed together.

"To ridicule somebody in this manner is juvenile."

Juvenile is Obama's base. The grownups don't need this ad. Unlike older people, young people in their 20s have experienced 10% of their life, and 100% of their work life, under Barky's presidency, with 18% unemployment in their age group. These are the future conservatives.

Pretty nice billboard. Kudos to whoever put it up.

As far as it hurting conservatives? What a crock! I am sick and tired of the timid ways of so many people in this country. We are supposed to have a representative republic. A Free Republic. People have the right to style Bush as a chimp if they like. Initially I loved Bush but it turned out he was no better at spending money than a chimp with a credit card who knew nothing about the value of a dollar. Sad but true. He also allowed this country to be invaded from the south. So he was monkey headed in mroe ways than one.

As far as Obama goes the political cartoon on the billboard is really pretty light weight in my view. He has committed treasonous acts (nothing new in Washington) and is subject to as much ridicule as can be heaped on him. Point at him and laugh all you want at him. He deserves this ridicule and much more. He is an a$$ clown. A joke. He is unfit to tour the White House much less be employed there.

I recently started reading the book “Theodore Rex” and it really makes me want to see a real leader. A strong person at the tiller. Not this little queer like waif who is so unfit for the job he is a parody.

So, if this billboard offends the left I don’t care. If it offends the people under the bright lights with makeup on without brains I don’t care. If the walking dead media types like the NY Times does not like it I REALLY don’t care. I won’t be a party to the idea that it is sensible to think what people with no sense think. Nope, count me out.
