How low can they go part 2 - 10/13/2010 4:15:18 PM

The billboard’s tagline, “Vote DemocRAT–Join the game,” is littered with every conceivable meme that has been leveled at President Barack Obama as four iterations of the President–as Muslim/Terrorist, Nazi/Fascist and gangster, Communist/open borders supporter, and a supporter of gay rights–play cards, ostensibly “gamble” with the Statue of Liberty, a figure of blindfolded Justice, the Holy Bible, an American soldier, Uncle Sam, and a bald eagle. As they play, grinning vultures bearing the labels “$oro$” and a blue U.N. helmet look on, while several rats lurk from below, variously labeled “trial lawyer,” “IRS,” “EPA,” and “FED.”

Nothing to see here, folks.

But maybe Matt Taibbi is on to to something:

Scanning the thousands of hopped-up faces in the crowd, I am immediately struck by two things. One is that there isn’t a single black person here. The other is the truly awesome quantity of medical hardware: Seemingly every third person in the place is sucking oxygen from a tank or propping their giant atrophied glutes on motorized wheelchair-scooters. As Palin launches into her Ronald Reagan impression — “Government’s not the solution! Government’s the problem!” — the person sitting next to me leans over and explains.

“The scooters are because of Medicare,” he whispers helpfully. “They have these commercials down here: ‘You won’t even have to pay for your scooter! Medicare will pay!’ Practically everyone in Kentucky has one.”


A hall full of elderly white people in Medicare-paid scooters, railing against government spending and imagining themselves revolutionaries as they cheer on the vice-presidential puppet hand-picked by the GOP establishment. If there exists a better snapshot of everything the Tea Party represents, I can’t imagine it.

I'm not sure how you get from the President and his minions making a charge without any evidence (and it's the "let's make them deny it" tactic from the guys who were "the change we had been waiting for" that I consider the bothersome bit), to some nobody jackass getting his cartoon on a single billboard, but logic doesn't seem to need a place when it comes to your thoughts on US politics.

Snorts ya Ok Rich, I already gave my opinion on your rove impression and dirty tricks, have you seen the updates on that story?

I didnt realise I had to ask permission to post about something that I found pretty ugly. That you dont... is par for the course. I get it, but lets be a little less drama queen about it.
I made no comment except "hysterical no?" and you are stomping your feet because I dont follow your beliefs about your politics

Oh, it's plenty possible. This is the teabaggers we're talking about. They can and will go lower.

Your post makes no sense. How do you work out I am speaking for the right.

Then again some would think, new name, first post, no profile....... Probably a sock puppet.

No, I'm enjoying myself reading all the lefty hand wringing, whining too much.

This is hardly the worse cartoon ever drawn about Obama, in fact I think Time did a cover once that got a fucking lot more exposure than this Billboard...
