Why So Socialist?

Posters of Obama in Joker makeup with the word "socialism" have been popping up in Los Angeles. I like the piece from Bedlam Magazine.
The Joker white-face imposed on Obama's visage has a sort of malicious, racist, Jim Crow quailty to it...
Always right to racism. It's not because the Joker is a dangerous character and the person who created this poster might believe Obama to be dangerous. No. He's just a racist. Unless he turns out to be Black, then he'll be a race traitor. And then again this might just all be a stunt to get people crazy. Like me. Who knows. But the one they claim is from Atlanta is Photoshopped.

Aw man! That's the last thing I think of when I see that poster. I think of the real man being revealed when the "friendly" Obama mask is removed.
