I like my political satire to make sense.Thats just me.The joker character is an anarchist which is pretty far from being a socialist.The fact that a black guy is painted in white face flips the whole minstrel thing on its head and makes it seem like white people are the victims of racism.In short the poster is nonsensical but it looks cool so who gives a fuck if it makes sense?

From Time Magazine:
Back in early January, when Barack Obama was still President-elect, two of his chief economic advisers — leading proponents of a stimulus bill — predicted that the passage of a large economic-aid package would boost the economy and keep the unemployment rate below 8%. It hasn't quite worked out that way. Last month, the jobless rate in the U.S. hit 9.5%, the highest level it has reached since 1983.
The two advisers who wrote the paper, Christina Romer and Jared Bernstein, went on to land key jobs in the Obama Administration. Romer is the head of Obama's Council of Economic Advisers, and Bernstein is the chief economist and economic-policy adviser to Vice President Joe Biden. And the stimulus bill that both economists championed became law in mid-February. What has not come to pass, however, is the boom in job creation that Romer and Bernstein predicted. A little over a month ago, the Administration said the stimulus bill had created or saved 150,000 jobs. That's a far cry from the 3 million to 4 million jobs that Romer and Bernstein foresaw back in January.

We are moving backwards. We have incurred 1 trillion in debt since January 21st. That will devalue the dollar more. It took bush 2 and a half years to incur 1 trillion in debt. It took Obama less than six months.
I know the response.... it'll be the same response for the next 3 years... Its bush's fault.

What could he have done to lessen the impact on the deficit while still saving the banking industry?You have to admit that it was not his fault he had to bail out the banks so how can you compare Bush's choice to run up that debt with Obama's hand being forced to?Its not apples to apples at all.

This sums up the type of thoughtful analysis of people opposed to universal health care.
People such as scientist Stephen Hawking wouldn't have a chance in the U.K., where the National Health Service would say the life of this brilliant man, because of his physical handicaps, is essentially worthless.

Everyone* has jumped on this and, quite reasonably, had some fun with it since, alas, it seems as though the writer is unaware that Professor Hawking is, um, British.

Phony meeting will see President take scripted questions while Secret Service watches protesters outside, but liberal commentators who slammed Bush for doing the same are noticeably silent
08-11-2009, 04:50 PM
Monday, August 10, 2009
In an effort to protect the the saintly image of Barack Obama as his popularity plummets to new lows, the White House has ensured there will be no opposing voices to the Obamacare agenda when the President makes a town hall appearance in New Hampshire tomorrow.
The Secret Service will also be keeping a close eye on the throngs of protesters that are likely to gather outside.
However, the many liberal commentators who rightly slammed President George W. Bush for his numerous scripted town hall meetings are noticeably silent in their criticism of Obama’s similarly staged event.
“The White House controlled the distribution of the free tickets to get into the gym at Portsmouth High School. And the Secret Service will take care of any unruliness,” reports the Boston Globe today.
Helping the Secret Service to chill the free speech of Americans will be White House front groups such as HCAN, ACORN, MoveOn.org (a George Soros outfit), the National Council of La Raza, the eugenics front Planned Parenthood Federation of America, and the Clintonite John Podesta’s war-mongering Center for American Progress, who have organized “marshals,” less favorably described as “brownshirts” by some, whose job it will be to police protesters and stifle their freedom of speech.
As we reported on Friday, pro-Obamacare union thugs, who will also be in attendance in New Hampshire tomorrow, last week assaulted Kenneth Gladney, who was handing out Gadsen flags outside an event in in Mehville, Missouri that opponents of the health care bill were barred from entering. The fact that Gladney is a black man is a fitting rebuttal to claims that Obamacare protesters are motivated by racism.
The efforts on behalf of the White House and the Secret Service are designed to prevent a repeat of the raucous scenes of protesters speaking truth to power that have unfolded over the last two weeks across the country, actions labeled “Un-American” by Nancy Pelosi yet in reality as American as apple pie, baseball and George Washington.
“Barack Hussein Obama will be arriving in Portsmouth on Tuesday to hold a STAGED “Town Hall Meeting”, where he will essentially hand pick who the guests will be and what types of questions will be asked of him,” reads an advisory released by the New Hampshire Republican Volunteer Coalition. “A MASSIVE protest rally is being organized just outside of the facility where Obama will be holding his ‘Town Hall Meeting’ to promote his plan for a government takeover of your healthcare decisions.”
Beyond the sideshow of the partisanship divide, it’s interesting to note that liberals who were rightly up in arms over President Bush’s innumerable staged town hall events are in fact supporting measures to ensure Obama can preside over a similarly scripted meeting.
In February 2009, the Think Progress website, which is the media arm of the Center for American Progress, a left-wing think tank whose stated goal is focused around “driving the White House’s message and agenda” according to its own director Jennifer Palmieri, and who have been busy attempting to discredit the town hall protests, reported that Obama was ensuring a “clean break” from the era of George Bush, “who aggressively screened his audience members.”
Now that the Obama White House is screening its audience members, will Think Progress be as critical of him as they were of Bush for doing the same thing? Or will they just continue to peddle government talking points as part of their stated mission to ‘drive the White House’s message and agenda’?

After bizarrely claiming that the Obama Joker posters were somehow racist, despite the fact that George W. Bush was also characterized as the comic book villain during his presidency, the establishment media is now floating the wacky conspiracy theory that calling Obama a “socialist” is a secret code which really means the n-word.
Is there really no end to this madness? How can people criticize Obama if every time they so much as question the great leader, they are smeared in the media as racists?

Yelling Heil Hitler at a jew seems to be a reasonable way to protest Obama's health care plan.You can see the wheels turning for her when he asks how she could yell that at a jew .Ooops maybe I should have stuck to the other talking point I have. Is it truly as embarrassing as it seems to be a republican now and for this to be your brethren?

David Sedaris is one of the funniest people alive(excluding me).His take on health care is interesting.
http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/as...daris.html
THE NEW YORKER: Via e-mail, Pat Donohue, from Point Pleasant, New Jersey, asks:
As a resident of France and an American citizen, your point of view on health care in the two nations is of interest to those of us who have never received medical treatment via a system such as France’s, which, I understand is a hybrid between single-payer (the government of France) and some private insurers. We receive so much information to the negative on France’s health care and I would like to hear your view point and/or comparison between the two. Thanks.
DAVID SEDARIS: Allow me to answer with kidney stones. I had my first one at the age of thirty-four. At the time, I was living in New York and had no health insurance. Never in my life had I experienced such pain, but I couldn’t afford to go to the hospital, and so I passed it at home, not knowing until the end what it actually was. (I thought I was delivering Satan’s baby through my penis.)
I had my second kidney stone seven years later, in Paris. It was ten o’clock in the morning, and after looking at my options in the phone book in the phone book, I took the metro to a hospital in the 15th. Two minutes after walking through the door, I was in a private room. Delicious, mind-numbing drugs were delivered to my blood stream by way of a tube and life was beautiful. I was in the hospital for four hours, and as I was leaving, I asked the receptionist how I was supposed to pay.
“Oh,” she said, “We’ll send you a statement.”
“But you never even asked me my name.”
“Really?”
A few weeks later I got a bill for the equivalent of seventy dollars, this because I’m not a French citizen and am therefore not entitled to free care.
I got my third kidney stone a few months ago, while on a lecture tour of the United States. The hospital I went to was in Westchester County and the service was outstanding. Maybe I arrived at the slowest time, but, like in France, I was waited on immediately, and the doctor and nurses could not have been more pleasant. Again I was there for four hours, though this time the bill came to five thousand eight hundred dollars. Not including medicine.
I’m completely fascinated by the health-care debate going on in the United States, especially by posters of Obama with a little mustache drawn on his upper lip. Is that what Hitler is really known for, his health-care plan? To quote Bill Maher, “I haven’t seen this many pissed-off old white people since they cancelled ‘Murder She Wrote.’ ”
Now I live in England. I’ve just been granted Indefinite Leave To Remain, which allows me access to the N.H.S.

I read this last night and it seemed like a fascinating window into our man anal8tors mind.I learned that he truly might not be at fault for how retarded his political positions are as he was raised in an environment full of shitbirds with no clue.
Only in Louisiana could a family values republican senator get caught wearing diapers with a prostitute and still be favored in his reelection.Obama is so hated it washes away all sins no matter how hypocritical.The one thing this article doesnt mention but could have summed up the states opposition really quickly is Obama's a black and LA hates blacks.Its funny how we pretend its because they really hate socialized medicine that they hate Obama.Yea thats it.

Worst poem ever.
http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/cstant...-remember/
WE REMEMBER 9-11
Smoke billows rolled
As planes shattered glass
Concrete and steel
The trees and the grass
An enemy attack
On the Land of the Free
How could this happen
How could this be
Our hearts gripped with fear
In sheer disbelief
Unbearable sorrow
One hardly could speak
As evil sought triumph
Through catastrophic strife
Towers fell and buildings crumbled
Tragically ending innocent lives
We cried out to God
Fell down on our knees
Hugged our families, friends, and strangers
Helping anyone in need
It was a day where we placed
All our differences aside
We were Americans facing tragedy
With courage, tears, and battle-cries
We remember 9-11
Those who paid the highest price
Those who bravely tackled evil
Those whose courage rescued lives
Unfathomable terror
Unfolded before our eyes
A day where heroes would die
And warriors… would rise.
We remember 9-11
Our lives forever changed
Those whose heartbeats too soon ended
Shall not have died in vain
Though evil fought for victory
The death of freedom was their prize
Americans will not bow to terrorists
And Our Freedom… Will… Survive
We remember 9-11
Yet our hearts, our hopes our dreams
Remain alive
Now hear our cry
AMERICA, LET FREEDOM RING
We remember you, the sons and daughters, the fathers and mothers, the sisters and brothers, the aunts and uncles, the cousins, nieces, and nephews, the neighbors and strangers… the rich and the poor, the young and the old, the weak and the strong…
We remember you, the firemen, the policemen, the paramedics, nurses and doctors… the pilots, and passengers, the flight attendants, and co-workers… the citizens of New York, Washington, D.C., and Pennsylvania… and all those whose lives were forever changed because of the atrocities thrust upon this nation by a group of terrorists hell-bent on destroying our freedom and democracy, and our American way of life…
We remember you, our men and women in uniform, in the United States Marine Corps, the Navy, the Army, the Air Force and the Coast Guard…
For those who gave their all and for those continuing the fight for freedom to keep our Country safe… May GOD BLESS YOU and may GOD BLESS AMERICA!
