Kind of ironic I'd say. The poster is meant to say that Obama is like Bin Ladin in that anyone that speaks out against him gets crucified. By the media in our case.

Here is the message that came with it.

I'm afraid there may be more truth to this than fiction. Right now anyone saying anything against him is being crucified by the media. Everyone better get ready because before it is done people will be put in jail for speaking out against him.................

I took it as a reference to recent media actions of crucifying anyone that speaks out against Obama.

I would think the only people that would find this offensive would be the Obama groupies, and I'm kind of thinking that was the creators intentions.

My first impressions when seeing the picture was a reference to Obama being untouchable like Bin Ladin. After reading the words on the picture, I took it to mean "Change" isn't always for the better. Bin Ladin changed America forever on 911. I think this was the picture creators intentions and the author of the email changed it to mean anyone that speaks out against Obama gets pounded by the media.

Sad but true picture OF mindlessness and stupidity in Dodge City

The posting and support as 'harmless' of the picture of Mr. Obama dressed as bin Laden at least continues to prove how mindless and ignorant this part of the world sadly is.

Not only do we vote for 'leaders' that believe that the Christain bible is literal, but that also believe in such ignorance as ecology not being important due to an upcoming 'second' coming, et al.

And that Mr. Obama was raised Islamic.

Can't wait to see the hate in the upcoming presidential contest. Should be pouring out of SW Kansas. At least that will give residents around here something to do, besides complaining about all those immigrants.

There’s plenty of hate coming from your side of the political spectrum old timer.

Actually, I've always respected Mr. McCain

Seems that Obama vs. McCain could raise the level of discussion to actual issues, if the ignorant type of attacks such as that photograph would go away.

Senator McCain is a rational Republican, respecting civil rights, woman's rights, and not blind in his religion.

That a rational discussion of critical issues, such as our policies in the Middle East, Russia, and Asia, on taxes, on the recession, health insurance, and the weak dollar, etc. would be important to voters would be a wonderful and different presidential contest. But, given the posts here, I guess that might be to much to expect.

That I stated the facts about Huckabee's beliefs was not hate, by the way. That he won in Kansas, and certainly in SW Kanas, was a fact also.

McCain is a Democrat dressed as a Republican, that is why the left likes him so well. That and the fact he doesn't stand a ghost of a chance of being elected.

I'm sure had I posted the picture of Bush in Bin Laden garb you'd be laughing with the rest of them.

My biggest issue is immigration reform. None of these wannabes give a shit about the illegal immigration issue. Nothing but 3 of the biggest losers the Left and the Right has to offer. In the end we all loose.

The picture was nothing more than a way to scare stupid people into believeing that just because he has a funny name he's muslim.

I'm not offended by the photo at all. It's a useful tool for me to see who the idiots are.

The offence comes from the idiots who look at a fake picture and then buy into the fear mongering of the Reicht wing idiots who keep pointing to it as "evidence" of something.

No, McCain represents the best of Republican values

Actually, seems to me that McCain is a return to the values of Ike and Barry -- rational, leave people alone, focus on policy, and not blindly following personal religious beliefs or making others do so.

And staying above the gutter politics of the fair right wing.

McCain is the real flip flopper and it makes me happy to see so many Republicans disavowing him. The more unhappy they are with him the more likely they are to stay home.

That'll help the Dems take the presidency AND the Congress. Andy they need all the help they can get until all the petty bickering is over.

If you'd post the pic of Bush with a hitler mustache I'd have said... Yep D finally gets it.
