Rush Limbaugh, yesterday, on his broadcast:

“The very people who spent seven years mocking everything about George W. Bush telling us how to assassinate him in books, doing movies about his being assassinated, calling him Hitler are just outraged about this, but there’s nothing racist about this Obama poster. In fact, if you’ve seen The Dark Knight — have you seen The Dark Knight, Snerdley? All right, you know the character of the Joker in that movie, the Joker in that movie took every opportunity to remake Gotham City, didn’t he?

He had a big damn chip on his shoulder about his childhood and about a bunch of other things. His goal was to undermine the whole system. I think whoever did this is pretty brilliant, actually. And to effect the change that the people of Gotham City didn’t want, the Joker created chaos upon chaos. The whole city was focused on him and what he was going to do next. He viewed crisis as an opportunity. So the Joker orchestrated crisis after crisis after crisis. And the Joker wore a mask. I mean whoever put this poster together is pretty smart because there are some similarities here to what the Joker did in that movie and what Obama is doing to this country. And, by the way, Obama has admitted to wearing masks. In Dreams from My Father: “It was usually an effective tactic, another one of those tricks I had learned. People were satisfied so long as you were courteous and smiled and made no sudden moves. They were more than satisfied; they were relieved, such a pleasant surprise to find a well mannered young black man who didn’t seem angry all the time.” This is his tactic for fooling white people. This is the mask.

They are just livid over this poster out there now. From the UK tabloid, the Daily Mail: “Spoof Poster of Obama’s Face Painted as The Joker Branded ‘Dangerous and Mean-Spirited’ — A poster depicting Barack Obama as Batman villain The Joker has been called ‘mean-spirited and dangerous’ by the US President’s supporters. … The creator of the image remains unknown, but the website that first published the image crashed yesterday because so many had been attempting to view it. It has since been spotted in Los Angeles and Atlanta.” A poster. A poster has been spotted. A poster spotted in Los Angeles. Oh, and a poster spotted in Atlanta. They’re trying to figure out who did it. Thomas Lifson: “Open mockery of Barack Obama, as disillusionment sets in with the man, his policies, and the phony image of a race-healing, brilliant, scholarly, middle-of-the-roader.”
