That Logo: “Too Cute By Half”

“It is counterfeit.”

It’s an Obamination, er abomination, imho. …

    First of all, it doesn’t make him look presidential, it makes him look like he’s playing dress-up.
    He should be saying, “I’m not a president, I just play one on tv.”
    Second, isn’t he the Obamessiah?
    Wouldn’t president be a demotion?

    And the seal looked pretty stupid, too.

    You know, I do not know about you, my family have aready made up their mind, after the DNC convention if Sen. Hillary Clinton is not the candidate for the DNC presidential candidate, we are voting for Sen. John MacCain. We are not staying home.

  • OBushMA!

    The audacity of shamelessness.

  • http://aHillarybMccainAmericaFirst.com/ gerard nedich

    this is really shocking… Obama not only is shameless and corrupt… but he is obviously still smoking crack if he thinks he can get away with soiling the Presidential Seal…

    This is offensive to all americans, i hope McCain uses this in ads and in debates etc etc…

  • sproutingly

    Maybe somebody should get Obama a Flash Gordon Secret Decoder ring and one of those little plastic airline wing pins (just like the REAL pilots wear!) to go along with his new Obamaland Seal!

    “Vero Possums!”

  • Joe Smith

    We are doing the same thing. I am just waiting for the DNC to come to its senses. However I don’t think they will change. They have to much invested in this guy and they are going all in. The Obama campaign was able to get away with just about anything during the primary. It does not look like that is happening anymore. I have a strong feeling the media is seriously playing politics. They will slowly turn on this guy with out him even knowing.

  • DJ

    Over at Hillary Supporters For John McCain a poster wrote these is some law that you can’t display something this that represents presidential seal…go see,,I can’t remember all of it…..Let’s file a complaint and tell Fitz to arrest him

  • http://NoteToSelfDontDie.com/members/ gerard nedich

    yes, he obviously plans to steal the presidential election too…

    seriously, this is really fucked up… how completely devoid of common sense, common decency is it to use the presidential seal? after stealing votes?

    this guy really is a clown… i think it goes to show that they are blatantly “marketing” obama and that anything he says can’t be trusted… its all a con job to get and steal votes…

    obama is a menace to the world not just america

  • http://NoteToSelfDontDie.com/members/ gerard nedich

    just like Obama claiming he is the Nominee for months while hillary was still getting landslide wins in primary elections they think that if the slap a presidential seal on he podium he can claim he is presidential months before the election so that when they steal votes in November they think americans won’t notice… and will just accept the “president” that Rezko and Daley have picked for us…

    this is sickening…

    McCain and all of us should lobby for the authorities to strip that seal off his podium…

    the hilarious thing is the seal is so HUGE that it makes him look even more tiny and skinny and wimpy…

    also, stealing votes and stealing the presidential seal doesn’t look presidential at all… just makes him look like an idiot…

  • Pink Panther

    Regarding Obama’s new campaign seal, following is the Federal law on the Presidential seal:

    Title 18 Part I Chapter 33 §713
    §713. Use of likeness of the great seal of the United States, the seals of the President and Vice President, the seal of the United States Senate, the seal of the United States House of Representative, and the seal of the United States Congress

    (a) Whoever knowingly displays any printed or other likeness of the great seal of the United States, or of the seals of the President or the Vice President of the United States, or the seal of the United States Senate, or the seal of the United States House of Representatives, or the seal of the United States Congress, or any facsimile thereof, in, or in connection with, any advertisement, poster, circular, book, pamphlet, or other publication, public meeting, play, motion picture, telecast, or other production, or on any building, monument, or stationery, for the purpose of conveying, or in a manner reasonably calculated to convey, a false impression of sponsorship or approval by the Government of the United States or by any department, agency, or instrumentality thereof, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than six months, or both.

    (b) Whoever, except as authorized under regulations promulgated by the President and published in the Federal Register, knowingly manufactures, reproduces, sells, or purchases for resale, either separately or appended to any article manufactured or sold, any likeness of the seals of the President or Vice President, or any substantial part thereof, except for manufacture or sale of the article for the official use of the Government of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than six months, or both.

    In response to Obama’s claim that Republicans will use race to stoke fear, Lt. Col Allen West, candidate for Congress in Florida’s 22 District issued this release: (Clarice Feldman)

    “My advice to Senator Obama is to run as a Man and Leader, and the American people will evaluate you as such, not as a victim. This is a Presidential race, based solely on a capacity to lead the United States of America. It is not about skin tone…however, perhaps we should come to expect these immature statements.

    It also seems rather humorous that the Presidential candidate who was supposed to be such a “uniter” and transcend race is the one talking about it the most. If Senator Obama was confident in his abilities and character, he would not need to create a crutch for failure. Senator Obama has just tipped his hand, any criticism of him and his policies will be directly attributed to racism. I congratulate Senator Obama for taking race relations in America back some 30 years.” Lt. Col Allen West

  • roseeriter

    The Obama gang is sure countin’ their chickens before they hatch..

    NOBAMA!

    For some excellent videos that highlight the differences between Obama and McCain, go to savagepolitics.com. In the search area located on the upper right, type in It’s All in the Contrast. You will feel good about your decision to vote for McCain. And you will see why Obama does not want to do townhalls with McCain. PS- The last video is the best. Enjoy!

  • http://NoteToSelfDontDie.com/members/ gerard nedich

    that was very well said…

    this is the kind of talk we need more of, the truth!

    Obama is just a common criminal, he isn’t even a politics as usual politician… he is just a thug for Daley and Rezko and Soros

  • AC

    I went to BO’s site to see if the seal was posted there…

    and got to watch his new ad “The Country I Love”…

    its… it’s… wow. He talks about growing up with the Kansas heatland values and “the country I love. Not one non-white face in the entire ad.

  • sproutingly

    Yeah the Obamaland seal is SO HUGE it makes Obama’s head look really small! No sense of proportion at all. It looks like something from a Saturday Night Live skit. But you can’t make this stuff up. They are becoming unanchored and one sign can be found in the deteriorating aesthetic that surrounds Obama. Not to overanalyze, but their campaign is turning grotesque and people will become physically repelled by this type of visual degradation.

    That Latin translation on the seal for “Yes We Can” that looks like “Very Possums” (Vero Possumus) was a nice touch. Maybe E Pluribus Possums (or–”Out of Many, Possums”).

    I don’t mean to be flippant. I also find this iconography very disturbing, in its intent as well as in its banal ugliness.

  • DamonMI

    Really, even his supporters must be second-guessing themselves, now. If some were still waiting to see if Obama had jumped the shark, he just jumped about 20 of them.

    Yes, Obama, we see you pissing in the Kool-Aid. You are not invisible to me. lol

  • JB

    I know there some very artistic people who contribute here. Any one care to whip up a parody of Obama’s seal? Just replace the eagle with a turkey and the Latin logo with “jivus turkeus” on it.

    Obama needs to be mocked every misstep of the way. Anger isn’t enough.

    a lot of Obimbo’s are posting that the seal is gret, that they really like it, it looks presidential and its a sign of things to come and that it should replace the existing seal since he is bringing a new kind of politics to the US.

    This is why in other countries they laugh at us.

    so many stupid americans.

  • Northwest rain

    The damned thing looks like a pink flying pig.

    Look at the outline — the eagle’s wings are the pig’s ears and then there are two black spots for the eyes — that circle thing in the middle is the pig’s nose.

    That’s what I saw when I first looked at the blue image — my attention was elsewhere and my eyes were unfocused.

    What is all this fuss about a damned flying pig — I thought — THEN I saw the eagle and of course the prez symbols.

    Then there is that damned possum — so what is it a flying pig with a possum?

    The Obama freaks are absolutely crazy — coming up with this sort of grandiose crap.

    And I still see the damned blue flying pig!

  • http://www.thecityedition.com/Pages/Archive/Winter08/2008Election.html Jeremiah God Damn AmeriKKKa Wright

    Definately replace the eagle with a turkey

    Replace the olive branch with marijuana

    Replace the arrows with a the koolaid jug

    replace the slogun with “come smokem the hopium”

    and around the edge put “Seal of the leg tingly Messiah of Obamaland”

    and in the middle of his logo which replaces the shield, put graphic of a bull taking a shit.

    Either 1 or 2 things is going to happen with that seal when someone starts to criticize it directly to him

  • hootnannie

    That logo that looks like Comfort Inn’s is bad enough! And when I first read the word possumus, I–being from the South–thought of possums and how poor black and white folk both ate them a lot. I’m afraid that the new seal and motto remind me of the “Amos ‘N’ Andy” episode where Kingfish and Andy work up a scheme to defraud a hotel by one of them pretending to be the “Punjab of Jabberpore”. And of course BO is good at “playing possum” when asked a question he doesn’t want to answer!

    from

    http://swamppolitics.com/news/politics/blog/2008/06/obamas_great_seal.html

    I grabbed these salient comments from another website:
    Consider all the elements on the original seal, the history and symbolism, and consider what has been changed…

    1) The snake (enemy) has been removed from the eagle’s beak. We will no longer confront our enemies.

    2) The eagle is not a bald eagle. This type of eagle was often prominently displayed in the crests of European countries. Even Hitler used it in his banners and artwork. Our unique symbol has been replaced with a European symbol.

    3) Red, the color of blood and bravery has been erased from the field.

    4) The shield, symbolizing defense, with the stripes of the thirteen colonies, united under the blue banner, is gone. It has been replaced with Obama’s own personal symbol.

    5) All references to the 13 colonies… the olives, inner stars and stripes on the shield are gone. The history of thirteen independent colonies uniting as one nation, has been erased.

    6) “Out of many, one” has been removed, replaced with Obama’s slogan.

    7) The dark blue, the background for the stars, representing states rights has been replaced with a soft pastel blue.

    8) The 50 stars, representing the 50 states, have disappeared.

    So consider what has changed…

    The individual states have been removed, our history erased, our symbol of power and unity neutered, and only One Government remains, with the messiah’s symbol in the center.

    This isn’t a laughing matter. This is a disgusting, unholy abomination!

    Posted by: SaveOurNation | June 21, 2008 12:53 PM

    ofcourse being the fair minded individual that i am i thought i should also present what another poster said, who is an obama supporter on that thread:

    Why are people upset because he refused to accept the DNC’s money? That is 80 million dollars from god knows who. The minute he would have taken it, someone would have searched to find out where it came from and blamed him for lying about not taking money from pacs and lobbyist. Y’all are just jealous because your game is not that tight. Don’t hate – immitate, congratulate, and don’t hesitate. Were you 27 before you could get a girlfriend? Obama is going to be the next president of these United States, and one thing I can say with all certainty is if he stayed in his bed eating cookies and watching soaps for 8 years, he still would not be as bad as McSlow who gratuated 894 of 899 and does not have a law degree. You better recognize you inbred freedomphobics!

    There are about three journalists under serious consideration for Tim Russert’s job at “Meet the Press.” Can you imagine if they were out talking about their credentials and had a phoney logo of the show? And speaking of Meet the Press, I am curious. Why aren’t they going to pick a replacement who is the least experienced? Why pick the “same old” journalistic thinking? Why not pick say, a blogger? Can you imagine? No. Not them. They are not going to skewer their programs, but they are trying to foist onto the American people an under prepared presidential candidate and then call us racist when we don’t vote for him. Speaking of racist. Why no prominent AA faces as anchors on the networks except as “fill in?”

    Is Obama’s new faux-presidential, alternative-reality seal his “Mission Accomplished”?

I suppose he could start requiring reporters to stand when he enters the room. … The seal probably started out as a bit of fun.

    “Gem” doesn’t begin to describe the brilliance of this voting rights video from March 2007, on so many levels. I wonder what impact Senator Obama’s current implosion has on Senator Lewis, featured in this video, who withdrew his support from Senator Clinton during the primary and transfered it to Senator Obama, months before he became the presumptive nominee. Having worked so closely with Senator Clinton on this voting rights bill, I wonder how he felt when his new candidate agreed to receive not only votes explicitly cast for HRC but which the RBC stole from her to give to him; but also votes explicitly cast for “Undecided” but which the RBC determined should go to him, too. In light of Representative Lewis’ demonstrated history of fighting for voting rights, I cannot imagine how he justifies not speaking up against such massive voter disenfranchisement now.

    Darn, I was just designing my seal to sit behind. The grandkid wanted one too, for his koolaid stand. Oh, Gosh I just realized what I wrote.

    Should’ve signed on as typical white grandma writing from an undisclosed location somewhere in Hawaii.

    Time for “the other half” to emerge since he’s taken care of “the black vote”. Maybe he can get the two factions fighting it out for the “right” to claim King Obama as their own. Can’t you see it now,

    “He’s mine.”

    “No, he’s mine.”

    “He was mine before he was Yours!”

    “Racist!”

    “Bigot!”

    “My Reverend can beat up your Reverend!!” (chorus)

    And then the Left-Outs elect McCain.

    People who voted for Bush in 2000 at least had the excuse that they didn’t really know what he would be like as president. All they knew was that he was governor of Texas so he had some government administrative experience and was the son of a former president. They didn’t really know of the arrogance, corruption, deceitfulness, power seizing, stupid decision-making, inexperience in foreign and economic affairs, lack of judgement, unaccountability, gaming the system and the American people, etc that would become the mark of the Bush presidency.

    Voters don’t have the same excuse in 2008. If anyone’s paying attention at all, these same characteristics and much more are very evident in the candidate Barack Obama…before the vote. The only thing is that somehow this seems to be OK with the MSM, his supporters and the DNC. Barack Obama seems to be the best thing since sliced bread and the savior of our country. I guess the ‘hide your faults in plain sight’ strategy works as long as you mesmerize the public with a corny ‘hope and change’ message.

    At this point, I have no idea who I’ll vote for in November. It’s a shame the Democratic Party could not offer a REAL candidate to consider. I guess it will boil down to which one I fear less or not vote at all.

    And yes….for the trolls…if I feel this way I must be racist.

  • pasmalltowngirl

    Amen to that, Obama has managed to divide this country once again on race. He has managed to do so much damage in such a short time. Imagine how much damage he can do in, God forbid, 4 years. A presidential candidate, most importantly, should be for all the people, not some the people, not DIVIDE the people. The real Barack Obama is emerging, how can this country even think about wanting him to be our leader, the most RESPECTED position in the entire world.

    I dont think he ‘is’ anything

    I think he is empty, blank-pathic, lack of empathy, no identity

    that clip with Nunn next to him as he explains what he really meant about the Blind Sheik trial etc, you can practically see Nunns hand up his back making his mouth nmove, scarreeee

    It is amazing all the democrats that for years I had so much faith in now to watch them walking around with this idiot with this silly seal making the democrat party and position of nominee the laughing stock of the country and the world.

    How can the all stand there be quiet and look at this and not admit that this is the dumbest thing any nominee can do in a election race coming out with your one seal, it reeks of arrogance and look at it you have to admit it just look dam silly, really like a boy playing king.

    Man this is gotten so sickening from the seal to the fist bounce I just don’t know what to expect in the coming months, sure seems like these elected democrats will settle for anything and honestly I am going to hate to watch Hillary and Bill agreeing to this kind of nonsense from Obama

    I bet they mint an obama coin next. To replace the quarter.

  • fran

    I hope that gets largely circulated. That is exactly what is going on here, and it wouldn’t have worked in the primaries if they journalists had done their job. Any and all criticism of Obama is racist and/or “old politics.” He deflected everything with that. And his supporters use it at every turn. It’s tired and corrosive. Enough. People want to compare him to these great figures of the past (for which their is no evidence that he is even close in stature). Tell me, did Martin Luther King Jr. whine and cry? He fight for inclusion and equality. Obama’s alignment with Black Liberation Theology is all about being a victim and demonizing “whitey.” He can’t even unite his own party: he doesn’t have time, he has to get on with character assassinations against his next opponent and his supporters.

  • fran

    The seal reminds of when he was asked about what he would do first if he is elected. He said he would go into the Oval Office, sit behind the big desk and think/say: “THIS IS SO COOL!!”

    He is a child. Immature is the right word, used by West. Many former colleagues have said the same thing: he doesn’t like the work, but he is ambitious. Now, it’s “too much work” to reach out to the 18 million Hillary supporters. “Just tell ‘em McCain would be worse for women’s rights.” Wow, that’s inspiring. It’s on to the next thing for Mr. ADD. I still can’t believe he got this far. He’s been carried by the media and the DNC. We have to actively continue to organize to make sure this is the end of the road.

    What is really creepy about this seal thing is that is what Hitler did before he took power – He too had a “Seal” with an eagle (not the bald eagle) like Obamas to signify power – hope this isn’t a sign of things to come. Is this guy on a power trip or what?

    Obama looks like a stupid little kid at a school play. He looks the complete opposite of “Presidential”. In fact, I think alot of people see that photo and think to themselves, how can I vote for that f’n idiot when he doesn’t even look like he belongs anywhere near the White House?

    I wonder how all of the Dem governors felt being seated next to his immanence with his own special lectern and seal, when they all just had regular old seats. I bet alot of them were saying to themselves “WTF is up with Obama?”

    Just disgusting arrogance. This is THE SYMBOL of what Obama is all about.

    Before I even looked at the video, I thought the same thing as was said by them. It seems like Obama’s taken his nonreality, make believe show, front and center playing President, like playing house.

    Yes he came into power when the economy was bad and the people looked for anyone to save them. Some of the powerful people behind Obama have first hand knowledge of the Nazi’s way of working. I believe they may even be manipulating the oil market thus lowering the dollar and driving the economy into the toilet. Then the American people would swallow the whole change thing hook , line and sinker.

    Change yes but change to what?

    There are many similarities to Hitler’s slow rise to power in the earlry 30′s using rhetoric, enthusiasm and social/cultural/economic disillusionment to rally the masses, before he took control of the government entirely in 1933 and in the end began a campaign of destruction in the later years.

    Oh you guys……I am just not this pessimistic.

    What I see happening is just status quo. And I was so excited this year. I know that Hillary is a mover and shaker.

    I was so ready to get into solutions!

    It’s sickened me to see the drain on our infrastructure by short-term thinking that’s been going on.

    Frankly, the biggest event of my last 4 years hasn’t been the war. I’m sorry, I know this upsets a lot of progressives, but I live in a very red suburb. Those boys who signed up? They were crazy about becoming a soldier. I have tons of friends with kids who went to Iraq. They were all super-patriotic. It was not allowed to even suggest that they had been duped.

    The biggest event to me? Katrina.

    To see our emergency response system fail so utterly and so profoundly was horrifying.

    We are in danger. Real danger, and I don’t me don’t eat the spinach.

    Our government infrastructure has been gutted.

    We need someone with a plan.

    PLAYING POSSUM: THE NEW OBAMA CAMPAIGN MOTTO:

    The opossum is perhaps best known for faking death as a means of defense when attacked. While he is capable of falling over on his side, his mouth open in a death-like grin with saliva running out, from which state he cannot be roused until the danger is past, this is usually done only as a last resort. More likely a threatened opossum will Playing possum
    look for the nearest exit and run away (or more accurately “waddle away,” since they cannot move particularly fast). They will also sometimes bare their teeth, hiss, or even growl. With such displays they appear quite fierce, but actually they are not accomplished fighters and are very rarely aggressive.

    Probably drawn up by the same ad agency, the same “artist”…

    That is very sad, isn’t it, the best the artist could do when symbolizing America, exemplifing his understanding of what this country is, manifests itself as nothing more than some cartoon car representing an oil company.
