This was not put up by Obama political opponents. It was put up by anti-war proponents.I'm an American but not an Obama supporter, and I think it's over the top and in very poor taste.
I can't say I'm shocked though. During GWBush's presidency, his opponents compared him to monkeys and Hitler. Such is the state of American politics these days. People say outlandish things to draw attention to themselves, then the media obliges them.

Poor taste all around.
Curiously, Obama had received the Nobel "Peace" prize very early in his reign - for doing nothing, whatsoever, to warrant the prize, however, at that point in time very few casualties could possibly be attributed to him. But, hey, why let facts ruin a perfectly good hatchet job, eh?The text by Holmes' photo reads: "Kills 12 in a movie theater, everyone freaks out."
Next to the President's photo, it reads: "Kills thousands with foreign policy, wins Nobel Peace Prize."
I could not agree more.It would be great if killing in non-self-defensive wars became less socially acceptable.
Poor taste? How so?
Its a bit like when people compare a politican they dont like with Hitler. Or Stalin. Or any other massmurdering dictator. And just as when people do that, this billboard is just poor taste.Poor taste? How so?
In poor taste it is, but there is legitimacy in pointing out that we're outraged when aIts a bit like when people compare a politican they dont like with Hitler. Or Stalin. Or any other massmurdering dictator. And just as when people do that, this billboard is just poor taste.
I think it misses its mark. It appears to draw on dislike for Obama to lend sympathy to Holmes.
So I wasn't the only one who noticed that.I don't see sympathy for Holmes, what I see is no sympathy for innocent women and children killed by Obama approved predator drones.
I am amazed no one ever mentions that Obama has used them more than any other president.
If Bush would have increased their use, progressives would be rioting in the streets.
Oh the hypocrisy
This suggests one big advantage of having a Republican prez, ie, that wars &So I wasn't the only one who noticed that.
Imagine all the threads we would have seen going on about it and the blatant disregard for international law against Pakistan. But since Obama is the one doing it, silence...
