Obama Socialism Posters Now a Conservative Radio Contest

obamasource.jpg Although the original source of the controversial Obama poster appears to be a student in Chicago (he made the joker face and posted it on Flickr. Then someone apparently mashed it up with the word "socialism"), a conservative radio talk show has exploited the posters further making a contest out of it. The posters were first noted in Los Angeles back in April and received widespread attention beginning August 3rd. Seeing an opportunity, talk show host Alex Jones began a contest encouraging people to put up more posters. The poster had "Democrats and Obamanoids going ballistic," his website said. Some of Jones' posters--with his website address on one version--have appeared in San Francisco, but around 500 appeared in a Florida town leading to the questioning of at least one teenager.

ummm, i love how the noise machine parrots are blind enough to call *obama* fascist, especially in comparison to the actions of the Bushies.

his wafflings and over-compromise basically put him in the camp of an intelligent republican at this point. so what the F are they complaining about?

Way to go Alex Jones - awesome contest.

I loved the movie THE OBAMA DECEPTION

"so what the F are they complaining about?"

I guess it's their usual; "Yer either with us or agin us!"

yeah.

but the crazy stuff they lockstep with these days...
it's like do they not realize the cause of the current economic turmoil?

or are the sheep just that devoid of reason?
ie: let's be puppets for the greed barons that are destroying us...

its easy to appear lock-step when everyone sees the same reality staring them in the face - LOL

great website by the way - it's better every month !!

Alex Jones is a 9/11 Troofer, Liberetardian, Bircheresque crank.

Alex Jones is a conservative like Fred Phelps is a Democrat.

Judging from Rob's facebook page, I'd say it's a safe bet that 'ol Robby is too.

At least it lets you know what kind of nutters you're dealing with. It would take having the lack-of-reality of a 9/11 truther to not get the obvious racist tone that creeps people out so much.

I guess some people are just more comfortable following the noise machine than applying reason or facts.
