Early this morning controversial posters of President Barack Obama have been found posted throughout the highways and byways of Los Angeles. The posters depict Obama as the Joker – a character played by the late Heath Ledger in last summer’s blockbuster The Dark Knight – with a caption underneath which reads: Socialism. As to who is behind the Obama Joker Poster, no one really knows, but it’s not hard to guess — conservatives unhappy with the current policies of the president. Whether or not this is a real grassroots movement, however, or yet another example of conservative astroturfing, has yet to be seen.
While some are suggesting this to be a coordinated and nationwide political statement, so far the posters have only been found in Hollywood, with a few reports mentioning Atlanta as well. Then again, the day is young. I’ll keep this post updated as more news come in.

Oops, that should read Nobel not Pulitzer! My bad indeed.
I find it both amusing and startling that so many commenters are actually buying into the bull these conservative talkshow hosts are spewing and believing propaganda placked on the road without critically thinking for themselves. I sure hope Jessica is the most representative of Americans here because if not it’s extremely worrying for the rest of us.
You are welcome to leave. In fact, I encourage it. Move to one of your socialist paradises. Freedom-loving people have nowhere to go so we will make our stand here vs ilk like you.
For all of you idiots that get their facts from the MSM, have you even read any of the Fracking bills that have passed? Probably not. U just want to keep fogging the waters so no one can understand what is going on. Keep spout rhetoric from news people like their facts. Fact-Obama and Dems have spent more in the past 2 (Bush did sign these bills) years than all of the last 5 presidents combined. Hear that or are your heads still buried in the sand? We do not like what Bush did either-should be shot for treason(after a fair trial) just as all the others in Federal government should be. They are passing illegal laws-what is not in the constitution is relegated to the states and the individual. So quit spouting your fracking rights to medical coverage-because it is not in the fracking constitution. Fine, go ahead and pass an amendment, good luck with that. As for you and our government believing that you can keep doing this crap you better fracking back off. The anger in these meetings is just the tip of the iceberg. Oh, one more thing, a little thing in the healthcare bill-old people will just be given pain pills for their problems because it is not in the interest of the nation to keep them alive. SOUNDS LIKE HITLER AND SOCIALISM TO ME. Oh and here is my email and name so you can turn me into the office of future people to be audited and thrown in jail.

I’m just gonna comment on the Va as a template for healthcare. I spent two years in Iraq with the Marine Corps. I have two Purple Hearts, which I recieve constant care for at my local VA. First off there is absolutely no bedside manner. I was an inpatient for over a year and I saw many different doctors and nurses that acted the same across the board. Second: Appointments are extremely hard to get. Even with a dedicated program for OIF and OEF veterans. I recently called and asked for an appointment and was given one two months out. Granted no emergency, if I utilized my private insurance within a week I can see a doctor. Three: The facility is tired and the equipment old. Having more job security than a private doctor the VA doctors are not so intune with your care. Example: My doctors when I was an inpatient had finished their internship and a new group was coming in. The problem was that there was a gap of patient care of two days. No doctors saw patients. There were doctors available (it isn’t that bad), however only on an emergency basis. Even worse is that neither the new or old doctors renewed my pain meds. Being it was the Fourth of July the doctors had extended time off. No doctors could renew my meds because my new doctor had not consulted with me. By the way I was in a body cast with a broken bone on every limb, I was not tryin to get a fix, I was hurting. So I went into withdrawls from the meds and had horrible pain, it was the worst experience of my life, especially when unable to move. No matter what me or my family said they insisted I was fine. Thank god my father is a doctor and realized what was wrong and fixed the problem. I know this got drawn out and I can name many more problems like dry blood on the arm rest when they take your blood etc. Every experience with the Gov’t I have had besides serving the Country I love has turned out to be a horrible one. It took two years to get an answer on my disability rating, and another six months to get a check. And the new GI bill is a complete failure so far. The semester is over in five weeks and the only check I got was an emergency check the VA issued because they messed up. If you are not familiar with the VA system please talk to a vet young and old. That is the only way to get the real idea of a gov’t run system. I strongly feel that the route the WH wants to take with healthcare will fail the people and put us into debt. The system needs work but not a new direction. Oh i’ll leave out the time I woke up in surgery god I love the VA.
If Hitler was a socialist as some deluded minds here claim, why did the only political opposition come from the social democrats and communists?

Thanks to the vets who helped out, fighting in wars you may or may not have wanted to be in, in places you didn’t want to go to while your country was being hijacked. Jessica, I didn’t read all of your retorts because you’ve fallen into the trap of semantics, following untrustworthy news outlets (they exist on both sides of the political spectrum), and basically losing the forest for the trees.
Is Obama a “socialist”? Who cares. His policies point to yes. In fact, the best definition for him is actually probably “Marxist”. Most of his professors and peers fall into this group. Is he a Muslim? We’ll never know, although his preacher likes to wear Malcolm X attire and preach about how we’ve brought terrorism on ourselves. In some cases, we have given someone ammunition to act against us, but it doesn’t make the action right. Is he from here? Honestly, at this point, if he’s duped us until now, congrats Obama.
The reality is this…the dollar is on the way to being worthless thanks to his policies. The cost of everything we’re used to having will be through the roof. You’ll probably see riots like Spain, Greece, and other countries are having now. Once the U.S. dollar is no longer the currency of the world, you can’t keep printing it like we’ve been doing, because you have to be able to exchange it to buy goods.
The world bankers have taken control (this happened when they created the Federal Reserve and gave the ability to print out money to a private bank). The last president who discussed getting rid of the Fed was JFK. Do the math on that.
If you were to take every dollar earned as profit from the corporations and individuals in the U.S., you’d not be able to control the debt we’ve got or get it paid off. Taxes aren’t the answer. Smaller government is. Obama is the opposite of that. People need to be self sufficient. Obama doesn’t want that. People need to rely on their families, friends, neighbors, knowledge, and beliefs (no matter what they are, I happen to be Christian) rather than the government. Obama also, doesn’t want that. Big government, big taxes, and a shift from U.S. power and prosperity to a world government, with guys like George Soros right behind it all. Social media and everything you do is monitored (Facebook by the FBI, I have friends in the government with clearances youd be blown away by Jessica, to confirm it). And retired military buddies (Seals, special ops, etc. ) who are moving away from there with their families, because they know the real deal. Jessica, if you want to find the real answers, you better really start looking. You can only keep your head in the sand for so long.
I’ve considered myself a patriot for a long time, but I’ve seen my country falling apart from the outside, which is why I no longer live there. You folks back there better start getting ready because you’ve got a shit storm coming, and people like Jessica are letting it happen. Sorry Jess. Just my take. Now go do your homework.
