Obama: Joker

Seems like Barack Obama is popping up in the strangest places in LA - and wearing a most unusual disguise, to boot:

"You see, madness, as you know, is like gravity. All it takes is a little push"


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...

More snapshots here...If the scales are falling off the eyes in Los Angeles, then The One is in more trouble than he knows...

UPDATE 8/3: I guess no one at LA WEEKLY really saw The Dark Knight (despite the reference), as they pull the "racist conservatives" out of the bag quicker than a liberal can sign off on a tax hike:

The poster, which bears a very superficial resemblance to Shepard Fairey's famous Obama Hope illustration, has been pasted on freeway supports and other public surfaces. It has a bit of everything to appeal to the drunk tank of California conservatism: Obama is in white face, his mouth (like Ledger's Joker's) has been grotesquely slit wide open and the word "Socialism" appears below his face. The only thing missing is a noose...

People are such idiots. Who did they think they were voting for? Perhaps if they studied his platform a bit instead of worshiping him, they might have made the more informed and logical choice.
