BluegrassStateBlues (724 posts) Obama with Hitler mustache at the 'Stop Watching Us' Rally Any "LIBERAL" associating with these people can go **** themselves.
Igel (18,893 posts) 1. Context matters.On the one advertising sign, it struck me as a "Hitler" 'stache. Here, it strikes me as a redo of what I think of as the canonical "Big Brother" poster--man's mustachioed face with no background, "Big Brother" above and "is watching you" below. Googled some images, and they're similar. Also saw a poster nearly as salient with a non-mustachioed man. And parallel Obama and Bush II posters. Perhaps seeing that poster in "Being Human" when I watched it on DVD last July made the allusion fresher in my memory. Context matters. In this case, it's probably a 1984 allusion, "Obama = Big Brother" assertion, using a pre-made poster because they were available and could be repurposed. Of course, no real DUer could ever think that the Obama administration in any way, shape, or form exceeds the limits of what's proper when spying on any citizen of the world. (Wait. Isn't that the "no true Scotsman" fallacy?)

Say, guys, help me out: how many countries accused George W. Bush of hacking into their leader's phones? I can't seem to recall. Was it NONE, or was it more like NONE? I'm pretty sure it's one of those two.
That drone cries out* for an Obama logo on its nose.*Note to lurking DUmmies: Drones are inanimate objects and do not really "cry out". This public service announcement was brought to you by your betters at The Conservative Cave.
