Street Artists for Obama
Photo: Vitostreet
With a renegade reverend like Jeremiah Wright running his mouth and scaring away all the guilt-laden white people'which doesn’t help Barack Obama’s cause'it’s good to know that at least the streets have his back. We spotted this ‘Obama Street Art’ group on Flickr urging people to post stickers, stencils, and posters of the presidential hopeful. And although some people just lazily posted the Shepard Fairey posters that we don’t endorse, there was a lot of other unique designs and images promoting Obama. With the contemporary artists like the Date Farmers and The Mac backing him too, it looks like he’s got the creative community pretty much sewn up. Too bad none of them are superdelegates. On to Pennsylvania.

Some artists might be for Obama but Obama is against all artists! By making Shepard Fairey his official campaign artist Obama reveals that he does not acknowledge current artist copyright laws because Shepar Fairey has violated several copyrights throughout his career only to come clean when exposed. Obama by choosing Shepard Fairey may even support the orphan works bill. No to orphan works bil. No to Obama! Let us hope that the true revolutionary artists that Shepard has ripped off of will someday be widely known instead of him giving them props with no visible credit or recognition!!!

Ert,
I have noticed that people like you – McCain/Palin – supporters are unable to disagree with others without getting violent, rude, aggressive, threatening…promoting a fascist type of behavior as seen in some Palin-McCain rallies. A couple of questions: Do you guys always want to kill people you disagree with? Are you unable to argue your view point without insulting your opponent? I do hope that McCain loses! That might force moderate Republicans to create their own party and hopefully, Palin supporters will end up being part of a tiny far-right conservative party with no political power whats so ever! Enough of your smears, attacks, hatred and divisive rhetorics. The world needs peace, understanding and hope.
