So what is THAT supposed to mean?

I was driving down the street today and saw someone dressed as the grim reaper holding a big black sign that said "Obama".

What is that supposed to mean?

Please note: this is not supposed to be a thread about "I love Obama" or "I hate Obama" but a really direct question about what is that supposed to mean.

Thanks!

I wish.

It was on a really busy street and I was on my way somewhere and I couldn't figure get it.

Maybe there will be one in the paper tomorrow or something though. If so, I'll post it.

That it was Ronald Reagan who let all the nuts out of the asylums?

Maybe the title to the thread should be 'can you read minds?'

How are we supposed to know what he meant?

Some sort of anti-Christ thing, probably.

He was asking the creative minds at A2K for their interpretations. If you had just STFU and passed, you'd have looked smarter.

Sounds like an "electing Obama invites terrorism" meme.

Yep or maybe some kind of crazed death threat to Obama.

Sorry, snood. I didn't realize that to 'look smart' I must toss around ad homs, like you do. I'll try harder.

Nah, I won't.

Yeah, I'm guessing something along the lines of "if you elect Obama we're all going to die" or maybe "elect Obama or die". Hard to know, really.

Obviously I thought someone could read his mind. Why else would someone dress in black robes and stand on a sunny corner waving a black sign on a hot day if they didn't think we'd get his message?

The message I came away with is "What a frikken nut job this guy is to dress like that on such a hot day and be all esoteric about it."

I doubt that's what he meant for me to come away with.

So I thought the creative minds of A2K could help.

Or that people who followed the more gossipy side of politics would know about Grim Reaper Obama-man protests.

I didn't say "toss around ad homs", I said STFU. Keep up.
