Typical response. I know you're not in finance you don't have the expertise to debate me on this. Go write some more mortgages.

:roll:

Well, I see you got nothing left anymore.

Look, like shoving Obama's birth certificate in a birther's face, explaining the differences between fascism and socialism to you would be pointless. The only thing you have the intellectual ability to do is understand that big govt = socialism. That there might be many different variations of big govt besides socialism is not within the potential scope of your understanding.

You can't grasp the concept that government ownership of private industry = socialism?

Do you consider the absolute govt ownership of the military and law enforcement to be socialism as well? What about the courts? And the prisons?

Oh wait... lemme guess... that's somehow different, right? Those things are necessary, right? But it is socialism when it's schools and healthcare because those aren't, right?

Or how about this? If a private industry's only customer is the govt, would you call that socialism? I bet not. Yet how is that different?

It sounds like you have no idea what the definition of socialism is. Keyword "production."

Dumbfcks need to learn that "socialism" can refer to the socialist policies and not always refer to an entirely socialist government.

fixed. err, something like that.

What you meant to say was socialistic tendencies. We're nowhere near true socialism, it's a buzzword for Republicans who can't appreciate their cushy xbox, ps3, and 1st World lives.

How about this line: "Somewhere in Kenya a Village is missing their Idiot" :laugh:

You sir, win one free internets! :laugh:

For recycling the "Somewhere in Texas a village is missing their idiot" from the previous eight years, or for adding the random capitalization?

Are you saying that the industries I mentioned have no products?

Yes, one poster goes up and an entire labeled group is not funny. *golfclap*

well, it does add to the already huge pile of evidence.

Did you dislike "jocks" in high school too?

Of course he did. He kept getting his ass kicked and they put their smelly used jocks on his head when they locked him in his locker.

I'm all for a good joke at any politician's expense, but for the life of me I can't figure out why this is funny. *shrug*

It's funny because it is true. Think about it - joker wanted to destroy society to push his goal of anarchy, obama wants to destroy society to push his goal of socialist utopia.

It's funny because you think it's true.

It's funny because it is, you just can't see it through your idolatry of Obama.

Sure thing boss, I guess I'll just go and kneel at my Obamarama shrine :roll:
Anyone who thinks that's true has difficulty thinking clearly.

I agree. Liberals are much better at one sentence taglines and logos than conservatives.

Conservatives are much better at realizing the necessity for fiscal responsibility and not being dependent on a nanny government to provide everything for "free."

And yes, Bush was not very good for conservatives in the fiscal arena. He spent money like a liberal.

Whoops!

Want to fill in the last one? 😉

And try it with "majority controlled congress"

But but, then his point would be destroyed. He'd have to show that the only way to fix The US is Clint-on would have to be in office for over 40 years to get the budget back on track.

 
It's funny on a couple of levels.

Looks like it was done by someone young, the demographic that's supposed to love Obama

It turned the super president into a super villain

Black man in whiteface

It's popular & has become a meme

The artist won't come forward, despite it's popularity

It's a parody of the "Hope" poster that was so popular

It's actually perfect symbolism...

"...and in their desperation they turned to a man they didn't fully understand."

So why the caption "socialism"? It doesn't work in conjunction with the imagery of Obama as the Joker. Hell, "..and in their desperation they turned to a man they didn't fully understand..." is a vastly superior caption, and actually kind of funny. "Socialism" is just retarded.

It is perfect symbolism, but in a different way...

"...and in their desperation they attempted to make a joke no one fully understood."

Who knows... I agree. I don't see the relevance to the Joker either. Maybe "SOCIALISM" is there to reinforce the "in their desperation concept"? Or maybe Obama's full-tilt run into socialism and the creation of trillion dollar deficits points to the other Alfred quote... "Some men just want to watch the world burn..." (Because really, can you think of any greater sign of madness than signing off on a budget like that?) Or maybe we're all just reading way too much into it... lol

I like my interpretation/caption better. I think it fits BHO and his election to a tee. It was a vote of desperation where anything was better than what we had. And this is who we got.

Guess where the current POTUS fits into that picture. Yeah, much worse than Bush.
