Controversial Obama Joker Image Created by Chicago Liberal Democrat - The Orange Mane

epicSocialism4tw · 08-19-2009, 10:56 AM

Another left-wing conspiracy theory crumbles beneath them.

Quote:

When cryptic posters portraying President Obama as the Joker from "Batman" began popping up around Los Angeles and other cities, the question many asked was, Who is behind the image?

Was it an ultra-conservative grassroots group or a disgruntled street artist going against the grain?

Nope, it turns out, just a 20-year-old college student from Chicago.

Bored during his winter school break, Firas Alkhateeb, a senior history major at the University of Illinois, crafted the picture of Obama with the recognizable clown makeup using Adobe's Photoshop software.

"After Obama was elected, you had all of these people who basically saw him as the second coming of Christ," Alkhateeb said. "From my perspective, there wasn't much substance to him."

Another POS, exaggerated Mad Yak story. You are truly a sorry excuse for a self proclaimed educated human being.

Quote:

"I abstained from voting in November," he wrote in an e-mail. "Living in Illinois, my vote means close to nothing as there was no chance Obama would not win the state."

Quote:

"I think he's definitely doing better than Bush was," Alkhateeb said of Obama. Alkhateeb's views on foreign relations align with the Democrats, he said, while he prefers Republican ideals on domestic issues.

I thought that the repubs were easy targets, but the Dems are proving to be sitting ducks.

Media outlets howled and complained about the image (even though a similar one was created about Bush), and things got really quiet when they found out that it was created by one of their own.

Well that's a shocker.

The libs were falling all over themselves calling the poster racist. I just want to know if they all now think Alkhateeb is a racist.

Gee, where have we seen this before?

Reminds me of the woman who claimed to be a doctor in a town hall....who wasn't.

Or the young girl asking about all those mean people protesting universal health care whose mom was a Obama campaign worker...

or forging National Guard documents to support some retarded story of Bush ditching his TANG service

Making cartoons of Bush was funny.

Making cartoons of O is:

I'll be your really back for the 5-11 meltdown.

I don't know, and frankly I really don't give two ****s whether this nobody is or isn't a racist. I'm more interested in why you guys on the right are more interested in this than you are in the fact that Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia was in favor of protecting a racist court and bigoted cops in Georgia by executing an innocent man who happens to be black because this nut case thinks the US Constitution offers no mandate to the high court to protect innocent life even when the facts of the case prove his innocence.

Which issue do you consider more important?

Freakin' perfect.

As typical, the lefties only call republicans racists or democrats they deem as a "problem." Of course, it's the liberals that think minorities aren't smart enough so the need for all these social programs, but they aren't racists though.

Or how about the one where they are expanding the power of corporations to control our electoral process? You'd think that would be a little higher up the register than cartoons.

You might want to do a little research on Antonin Scalia. He's a hatefull, sarcastic, condescending bastard who belongs nowhere near a court room, let alone on the bench for the Supreme Court. Scalia has opined that the 8th Amendment outlawing the practice of excessive fines or cruel and unusual punishment and torture should be overturned , has criticized the necessity for cops to read the Miranda rights to suspects, believes that jueveniles who commit capital crimes ought to be eligible for the death penalty and he's been a staunch opponent of almost every civil rights initiative the court has backed. Scalia is also an advocate of increasing federal power over both states and citizens, a position usually disavowed by conservatives.

He's the most dangerous, radical voice on the court. I'm not surprised you like him.

TexanBob · 08-20-2009, 09:27 AM

Now that the Left has just voted in an overt racist to the Supreme Court, you no longer have any grounds for outrage against Scalia or Clarence Thomas.

You're a barrel of laughs.

You mean to tell me the far left has been upset with Obama? Nah, really? BTW, I just got news that Micheal Jackson died...™

Nobody familiar with the long history of Antonin Scalia and the facts of the court case she was criticized for could possibly equate Sotomayor with this douchebag.

Question for you; do you agree with his opinion?

Regarding this particular issue, liberals got whipped up into an emotional fervor over the thought that someone could dare portray Obama as such a thing! Of course the typical liberal is completely unapologetic about their own deep-seated hypocrisy...the images of Bush that were posted on this site alone make the joker image look nice.

...and then lo and behold! A liberal Chicago democrat with muslim roots created the image.

The irony is hilarious.

Of course, with Bush all you had to do is show the real thing.

Not too difficult to do with Bush, or Obama.

Here come the AngryDramaQueen neocon propaganda threads.

Instead of trying to evaluate and come to terms with the reasons why his party was crushed in a landslide, lost both houses and the presidency, he just stays in attack mode like GeeDubya and Rove taught him.

Keep it up - you and your fellow right-wing extremists will only hasten the demise of your already-on-life-support party!
