A little bit of a tizzy has erupted on the web about Sen. Obama’s new seal, pictured below. To me at least, distorting the Great Seal in this manner is a bit uncouth. Is trying to manufacture a presidential appearance for the candidate really worth such clumsy excess?
UPDATE: Fun with Photoshop.

While there is an element of this that seems silly, imagery is important. I hope it wakes people up to the imagery his campaign uses, because they typically do a very good job with it. However, this one is bad form, and a bit arrogant.

Remember the last time someone made their own symbol / seal? Remember what ultimately happened during that person/s reign? He too started out wooing the people with change. His name was Adolph Hitler.

Yes, intelligent people will see it for what it is - arrogant and presumptuous, but the average idiots he targets are supposed to associate him with the presidency when they see this.
Too bad for him, it’s a violation of Federal Law.

Let’s experiment and see if this law has any teeth, or if BO is once again exempt from the consequences of his actions in the eyes of the media.

Barack’s Seal is pure cheeseball, pretentious, and juvenile. Will SNL jump all over this? I doubt it. With that seal it would be fitting for BHO to wear a Burger King crown when he is at the podium. With this latest piece of work I believe he might be a malignant narcissist.

You should check out grettawire.com to see what thousands are saying about this Obama seal!!!
This is just one step toward Obama “CHANGING” our country to a terrorist friendly nation! On utube.com you can see him refusing to sing our anthem or solute our flag in Iowa on Labor Day. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8QCkgg5Kjo
He is a terrorist at heart just like his brother in Kenya.
