Barack Obama As The Joker Poster Catching Fire
More and more sightings of a controversial poster that depicts Barack Obama as "The Joker" have been reported on the East and West Coast of the U.S.A.
The poster shows Obama rendered to look like Heath Ledger's rendition of "The Joker" in "The Dark Knight."

The poster is captioned with the one word title: "Socialism."
The poster has "gone viral," with millions of people attempting to access it online.
Some critics say the poster is satire, and others are taking the image seriously, saying it does not depict the POTUS in a positive light.
"Depicting the president as demonic and a socialist goes beyond political spoofery," said Earl Ofari Hutchinson, president of the Los Angeles Urban Policy Roundtable. "It is mean-spirited and dangerous."
Criticism about the poster seems to fall into camps along partisan lines. Republicans and conservatives applaud it, saying that Obama is quickly losing appeal with voters as his large spending on social programs has pushed the country towards socialism.
Others contend the poster is insulting, with several critics even going so far as to claim the artwork is "racist."
What is your opinion of the poster?
