The Horror Continues

Posted on by

The writing along the bottom edge of the badge are lyrics from the Beatles classic “Don’t Let Me Down”: “I’m in love for the first time. Don’t you know it’s gonna last. It’s a love that last forever. It’s a love that has no past.” Completely disgusting. Only $200!

  2. I love your blog, Mitch! I've found a bunch a great stuff there, so thanks. But please please up ease up on the BO posters, willya? Before he won, it was cool to all the energy. Now… just creepy propaganda.

  3. Aw come on, the longer we make it last, the more we get to rewire our brains to become less racially insular… that was part of his whole campaign, that's part of what we were voting for, don't deny us our payoff!! REWIRE THE BRAIN!!!

    REWIRE! REWIRE! Sorry, did somebody say creepy?

  5. If you think this is bad Will, just imagine the kind of artwork that will spring up in the wake of the much bandied about “New New Deal”. Remember all that charming WPA agitprop. And don't get me started on the Federal Theatre Project!

  7. Will,
    There could be silver lining in all of this. This could offer a great opportunity for Bureaucrash to design all manner of parodies. This could be a target-rich environment, such that we've not seen in decades. Your digital video camera may well come in handy!

  8. So long as the next one doesn't say:
    Ya say ya want a Revolution, well ya know..

    I expect hero worship based on the behavior of the crowds during the campaign, but maybe we could tone it down a bit..that goes for Chris Mathews too!

  9. This teenage crush on Obama can't help but end in the way they always do – utter disappointment.

    Will the backlash be as irrational as the lead-in?

    Will those of us who never loved or hated Obama be ignored by the infatuated/disillusioned both ways?

  10. Okay, first I must say that anyone with this level of infatuation will not give up hope, as it were, even after reality contradicts all the pieties and bromides. Remember Bush 2, and they weren't even crushing this hard, but the level of self deception was truly deep and very destructive. Just because these are liberals we are talking about here doesn't mean they won't turn the same blind eye to the rape of liberty – “because, well this time it's OUR GUY!”

    Second, I just found a website entitled “Obama Art Report”. It is self explanatory.

    http://www.obamaartreport.com/

    And this is even scarier than Will's find. Behold … “Unidad”, it's the last painting on the page. There are rays of light coming from behind his head for Christ's sake!

  11. Well, wait, though. U2's been wildly popular for many many years, to throngs of people who turn to it, though it be slightly ridiculous, with expectant, hopeful hearts. Maybe Barack is the next U2.

    Of course, their best years were their least popular, which may not augur well. But they were at least damn good in the early days too.

  13. Cool Cat -

    People on the Obama Art Report seem more interested in these pieces as investments (they seem to be appreciating quite well).

    So in the end Capitalism does beat hope and change…

    Ha.
