Description
Just because you dislike the current administration don’t simply fall into step with the cult of personality, movie stars, and tv actors may not be the best source for your political knowledge. I did this simply because as an artist I find imagery telling and I find the resent crop of political yard signs unnervingly familiar. Simple statements from plumbers put them on their heels and reporters and tv stations get black listed for asking questions (it’s no joke simply laughing off the questions as absurd but not answering, it gives me great pause). Some change we can do without. Make sure when you do change that, that change is for the good and not simply for the sake of changing.

Not bad for a political image, I guess if you had to make something to keep pushing this bat-sh*t crazy right-wing nutjob propaganda that Obama is a commie socialist, you did a fairly decent job. ;)

If by lazy you mean easy, you’re right it was way too easy. After seeing those Obama signs it’s the first thing that popped into my “bat-sh*t crazy” little mind. When was the last time you saw a US presidential candidate use his own image like that? The question has been asked and all I’ve seen in response is laughter and scorn or a restatement of Obama’s plan, or reactions like the ones above. Think people how is Obama’s plan Not socialism?

If you take the time to listen to his words, you will hear the same old socialist propaganda, just rearrange the words some. "From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs." Karl Marx. Obama is acting like a socialist or Communist. Re-distribute the wealth sounds really good, until I looked at the facts and realized that my wife and I were now, somehow amoung the rich. I'm an electrician and she's a nurse and we both work 50-70 hour weeks. Another quote: "The urge to save humanity is almost always a false front for the urge to rule." And one more: "The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public's money." And one more: "Democracy and socialism have nothing in common but one word, equality. But notice the difference: while democracy seeks equality in liberty, socialism seeks equality in restraint and servitude." In 10 years, if it matters, those who will elect Obama will surely wonder why.

neat sign. and campaign ads featuring singing children are usually a warning too...! anyone who is thinking of voting Dem this time should take a good look at the UK now, after 10 years of Labour, and consider what the USA could look like in 10 years time: weakened, divided, violent, over-taxed, shambolic, and, perhaps, beyond the point of no return.

So, you've bought into this "redistributing the wealth" crap that McCain & Palin are hawking? Surely you realize that the government is constantly redistributing wealth whenever it levies taxes? The difference is that McCain will continue to tip the scales in favor of the rich who have gotten the lion's share of tax cuts (& don't need more breaks) during the Bush years while Obama will tip the scales back towards those at the bottom & in the middle who are hurting economically. Calling that socialism (& by use of communist symbolism even Marxism) is just pure ignorance & has absolutely no credibility. If you're a wealthy McCain supporter, then I can understand your greed (I don't respect it, but I can understand it). If you're making under $200,000 a year & you're supporting McCain because of his tax policies, you're being duped into voting against your own interests. By the way, how do all you right-wingers like the way McCain is using air quotes to shown his contempt for the "health" of women, "community organizers" & nuclear energy's "safety, environment, blah, blah, blah"? You must be so proud of this man...

Nice work mock. Once again this election is, which one of the lesser of two evils should I vote for? WOW! I bust my rear working 60 to 70 hours a week so I can give my hard earned money (via taxes) to the government so "they" can give it to those morons who "refuse" to work and to factories that make arrows for children and to countries that wish we were all dead. I have to live with in a budget yet our government has no budget. I do know (from history) that the more you tax companies, the less jobs there are. By the way, the $200,000 a year is now down to $100,000 a year (per Obama). Government is all about control, the politicians will say anything to the masses (people) to get them to vote for them so they can have control over you and so they themselves can get rich off of your hard earned money. Question, when is the last time any of you have been in the government housing areas? Most of these people refuse to work and our taxes are paying their way, yet in the parking lots, they are driving $40,000 to $60,000 automobiles. We are talking Cadillac's, Escalade's, Lexises, ect. Haven't you noticed that every election these politicains say they care about the people until they are elected then the people are nothing but a bunch of stupid pee-ons that fell for their BS. Every one can blame any Rep or Dem President for anything that happens but they all turn a blind eye to the true source of Americas problems, which is the congress, made up of millionaire's who think that we the people are nothing but a bunch of dumb, ignorant idiots. Do you think they care about the high gas prices and health care? Wake up man, we the people supply (pay for) their health care and expenses even though they can afford it themselves. What really needs to be done is that we the people need to "fire" every congress member and start all over with people who grew up in the streets and not with a silver spoon stuck up their hind ends and set term limits so these new people can't become the same arrogant A-holes that are in congress now. Congress passes the laws, the President signs the laws into effect and the Judicial system enforces the laws. Have we all forgot this? If any one is going to quote BS from the what they have heard on the news, then at least listen to several sources so you are not swayed by just one source and "yes" they lie to you also, just like politicains. WAKE UP AMERICA!!! Before it's to late. We take freedom for granted yet we are all about to lose what we love so much about this country and we are going to lose it to a bunch of arrogant, my S""T don't stink, millionaire politicains who want to control "your" every move and every dollar you make.

intro
When did socialist become a dirty word? We drive on socialist roads. Read at socialist libraries, Our Emergency services are socialist. Our Public works are socialist. Show me an American who thinks we're not socialist, and I'll show you a delusional person. The right-wing agenda in this country is run by people who want everything and don't want to pay for ANY of it. THAT...is the definition of a bum. Besides, anything ANYTHING that involves money involves the re-distribution of wealth. Big whoop!

Ironic that after defeating communism wordwide we embrace it at home!
