It's great to see artists expressing themselves in a time like this. I also plan on supporting Obama by painting my own portrait and displaying it in my front yard. As corny as it sounds this is a moment that we will all remember in history and I want to know that as an artist I expressed my views and gave my support because that's all we can do.

Chris Bartlett says:

I made this poster because I'm horrified at the prospect of an Obama presidency. Feel free to share it everywhere. I completely disagree with his economic policies for redistribution of my wealth. If he wants Americans to give to charity, let them keep more of their money so they can have the freedom to do so. Remember "freedom" Senator Obama? An ObamaNation is a nation where charity is enforced.

jim_mcculloch says:

Trooper, this is silly stuff, not to mention being the latest McCain/Bush/Rove/Fox News talking point. It seems to have filtered down to the troops, so to speak. Next they will want to privatize "socialist" social security. Oops. They already tried that. Back to the drawing board.
"Socialism," indeed!

rmcarrier1 says:

Trooper TK409 (that a Star Wars thing?)...

ALL TAXES are a redistribution of the wealth! PERIOD. Obama is raising the highest tax bracket from 36% to 39%... hardly socialism (and lower than the 50% tax rate that the wealthiest Americans were taxed at under Reagan's first term - granted, Reagan did eventually reduce taxes drastically, but to the detriment of the economy. Just ask George "Read my lips, no new taxes" Bush, Sr. about that). Knowledge is power my friend.

DigitalHowie [deleted] says:

Uh, Trooper, currently, there's a company that has sent a proposal for funding (which it will get, the paper work just has to be filtered through) to a U.S. government agency to build a neurological facility in Mansfield, Texas, for brain injury patients, with special emphasis given to our soldiers injured in action in Iraq and Afghanistan. That, Trooper, is socialism in a nutshell. It's spreading the wealth. The government has been a socialist enterprise FOREVER. It collects taxes and gets that money out to the needy, businesses, individuals, etc. So, Trooper, in your uninformed opinion, you are against the troops if you're against spreading the wealth, er, socialism. So if you don't want your tax dollars going to this company, fine. Keep your money (but the IRS will get it from you anyways or else you'll go to a federal penitentiary) . And I'm sure the troops, knowing you don't want to help them out with your taxes, will certainly not be fighting for YOUR freedom.
