Why did you post this very creepy image of Obama? I guess we all know by now that the folks who voted for Obama now know they've been lied to and really there isn't hope.
I suspect it's one of those unfortunate instances where concept gets lost on the way to expression. My first assumption, at least, was that the artist had hoped to convey the notion of Obama 'having enough rope to hang himself' ... and wasn't perceptive enough to quit once the task proved utterly impossible.
Or maybe I assumed so because, otherwise... yikes.
For the record I am an Obama supporter and was just passing this disturbing graphic along as an example of the kind of stuff one can find on rightwing sites.

ReplyDeleteWhoever created this image deserves to go to jail.
ReplyDeleteFrankly, even publishing it seems legally questionable.
