Mar 17 2009PEW PEW Goes The Debt Star

I'm only posting this because I have a contractual obligation to post anything Death Star related. Also, I secretly enjoy watching you folks duke it out in the comments section Special Olympics style. However, in the case of this poster, I believe it actually carries a powerful political message. One about mediocre Photoshop skills, and also, Ewoks. My God they're delicious. "Gunta, che-ya gobu fenga wa!" Haha, shut up and get back on the grill.
Thanks to The Blue Bass, who didn't specify if he was large or smallmouth.

OH Snap, Crackle and Pop! Obama just got dissed and dismissed.

FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. YOu can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene int he movie NEver Back Down where Max was in his room wearing pajamas singing karioke to a bunch of stuffed animals, and his brother came in to apologize for yelling at him earlier. They then said cool beans a bunch of times.

So let's start a fight soon. Cause somebody is going to jail.... Welcome to the real PEW PEW.
23. flaberghast - March 17, 2009 10:22 AM
Oh but I suppose if it was something of praise towards Obama you would've blown your load over it GW… bah bah goes the liberal sheep.
and given your own photoshopped images in the past sir, you seriously have no place to criticize and call things mediocre… just sayin'
24. crazygeek - March 17, 2009 10:40 AM
This is the perfect image of what Obama is all about: emperical rule, death, planetary destruction and bobble headed thugs carrying out his dirty work (Pelosi and Reid). I don't blame Obama for our current situation necessarily, but I do blame him for our radical shift toward socialism in less than three months time!
Oh yeah, Star Wars rules!

LSDiesel still posts every once in a while. Sharpie died. Thumperchica has been posting under a different name ever since the GW went all puss puss and won't let us type curse words in their proper script.
27. softlicious - March 17, 2009 10:52 AM
I'm against Obamination, Osama never should've been elected when an honorable man, John McCain, was running, he was better but voters were stupid. Speaking about debt, in America debt can still land you in prison. And court rulings pertaining to the matter of child support are often deliberately based on falsities. This country has been taken over by feminists and pinkos.
28. softlicious - March 17, 2009 10:54 AM
@26 - Hey! That's news to me, I'm typing fast hope you see this, what name is thumperchica writing under?

35. softlicious - March 17, 2009 11:07 AM
@29 - Are you a democrat? Just because someone doesn't share your socialist ideals doesn't make them asshats. Please have some respect for people with differing opinions, especially if said differing opinion happens to be the correct one. Obamination is wrong and Osama is the worst president ever in the history of presidents.
36. NES--still-the-best - March 17, 2009 11:09 AM
@27...
When will morons like you stop using the ever-popular "Osama" to refer to Obama? I'm fine with someone preferring that McCain was elected, but when you simply regurgitate that oh-so-clever attempt at a verbal swipe at him, you come off as the foolish one, and as the one who is the sheep.
It wasn't clever the first time some fool typed it, so it sure as hell isn't the millionth time I've seen it.
37. Gordon "Fücking" Shumway - March 17, 2009 11:17 AM
@35
I'm a socialist, not a Democrap. Get it straight. Also, I don't expect immediate results from our government. Democracies and Republics run slower than other forms of government. It's difficult to gage how our current president is doing without giving him a chance to do anything. President Obama has been in office for less than three months and he's suddenly the worst president ever? Are you retarded? He's barely had time to break in the presidential toilet.

@36 - I know it isn't funny, the thing that's sad is that America has just elected it's worst president ever Barack Osama Obamination! He is going to spread the wealth around! How convenient is it for poor people to get money from the rich, the government will simply redistribute it, well it's very convenient but you can't do that because it's wrong. How sad it is that people have no confidence in their own abilities, instead they vote for this "great" Obamination politics that's going to give them everything they are unable to get themselves. I'm against that, if you're a pinko I suggest you go live in some pinko country like Fücking Sweden or something. That's where rétarded pinkos live. AoL is my favorite NES game, still after all these years.
40. Piano - March 17, 2009 11:22 AM
@36... I completely agree. Let's just use Hussein instead.
Also, this thread is not full of enough piss and vinegar. I shall help. Here are some topics to discuss.
Barack Obama is continuing the plans of George W. Bush and is simply a popular figure head. Bailout = Failout.
Why are liberals trying to make Rush Limbaugh the poster boy of idiot Republicans? He is not even a Politician.

@37 - Oh, excuse me, Osama hasn't had time to break in the presidential toilet, well I suppose the presidential toilet is anxiously anticipating the presidential turds:
http://watchingtheparade.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/04/bite_me_toilet_greer_sm.jpg
Oh, and the toilet isn't the only place where Obamination is going to make a shitty mess, he will shit down pretty much the rest of the country in a shit hole. Thanks for reminding me...
43. I live under a bridge - March 17, 2009 11:27 AM
I think wealth distribution is going to be a great thing for this country. The people on top need to see what real life is like for us little people. It's about time I got paid for the hard work I do!!
44. All fired up and nothing to do - March 17, 2009 11:33 AM
I too think misery distribution is a good thing for this country. The people on the top will have to to live under a bridge like I the rest of us. After all, nothing makes my lot in life better than seeing someone else miserable as I am.
Win-win!
45. softlicious - March 17, 2009 11:47 AM
@ 43,44 - Noooo! Wealth should not be distributed. I'm not wealthy myself, but I still support the right politics, because it's right. You can't just take somebody else's money because it feels convenient to do so, I'm not accusing you, just trying to win your votes. Speaking about unfair, american courts often deliberately base their rulings on falsities in cases pertaining to the issue of child support, this is wrong and has to stop right now! It's a bad case of "spreading the wealth around". Stealing is wrong, didn't you'r moma tell you that?
46. Mr. Man - March 17, 2009 11:58 AM

50. Cory - March 17, 2009 12:22 PM
It's fascinating to watch history being rewritten in real time. It's like the Republicans took notes about everything Democrats said about Bush and are just applying it to Obama without any sense or reason.
51. Wes - March 17, 2009 12:29 PM
I'm not for redistributing wealth, but the gap between middle class and the top percent of America is insane. We all get taxed too much, and its completely unfair that rich have to pay so much for taxes. What almost 90% of the country doesn't realize is that both sides are right, but what to do. The free market system isn't so grand it seems, the wealthy can maintain their wealth without any risk of failure. Once you get it, you have it forever. AIG too big to fail? Sorry that's just b.s. I'm a democrat and I don't support giving money to businesses who can't compete. I'm a Darwinist, and you have to let businesses to fail no matter how big they are if you want the best to push through and succeed. Good Ideas should always prevail not bad ones.
Republicans, you know your being way too harsh on Obama. He's trying his best to appease you and get things done. Do you know how impossible of a task that is?
52. TheJakester - March 17, 2009 12:54 PM
@45. You are obviously a deadbeat dad, with your ranting (twice) about child support. Suck it up. You screwed up. Pay the price.
53. TheJakester - March 17, 2009 12:54 PM
Oh, yeah. Pew, Pew!!
54. Jerry Jones - March 17, 2009 1:00 PM
@ 50
Republicans are just doing what Demos have been doing their whole lives, doing shit without any sense or reason. If you claim either Rep or Demos then you're full of rat shit. Be yourself for once not what your friends think is cool & hip.
Bush sucked, but he tried at the very least to keep the US safe. Obama sucks but he's trying but it's to early to tell anything from 3 months in office. So everyone just chill the f ck out until Rome eerrrrr USA is back on track.
Yeah what's up now you lil bitches? I don't have a side in politics because government.. man f ck government. Me and my homeboys politic ourselves.
Suck on that Independents!!

56. JRGG - First Time Poster...(here anyway) - March 17, 2009 1:33 PM
Wow.... so much to post about here. 1. Businesses are NEVER too big to fail. They should be allowed to. 2. Letting Americans go homeless and allowing them to die on the streets is a bigger terrorist act than ANY 9/11. So yes, Jesus was a Liberal Democrat and He wants you to be one too! 3. John McCain obviously had no plan other than WANTING to be the President of the United States. Bad planning on his part. 4. The Mortgage Crisis was handled wrong from the start, but the Republicans were right. Bailouts are WRONG. The one thing the United States owns is its land. Mortgages should have been nationalized and NO OTHER BAILOUTS should have been made. Bail out individual Americans, do NOT bail out failing companies or industries. Darwin RULES.
57. JRGG - First Time Poster...(here anyway) - March 17, 2009 1:34 PM

58. NassT - March 17, 2009 1:39 PM
Yup.
I cant believe the american people got duped into voting for the better candidate. How can we not elect a homophobic war monger who believes in using what little money the poor have to pay the rich. (insert republican here)Madoff 2012. When did the american people decide that voting for an honest hard working man (of science) was better than voting for someone who claims to be chosen by a god but acts exactly opposite of how his jesus tells him to.
Oh well, to bad we elected an intelligent man instead of a religious man.

60. neil - March 17, 2009 2:02 PM
was bush's multi trillion dollar deficit part of the debt?.. you know the one that started off as the biggest surplus since the depression? or the debt that was caused by 2 foreign wars?.. maybe we should give the republicans 8 more years... they seem very outspoken now that they have shamed themselves into obscurity. and they always have such productive suggestions.
i love how you pieces of shit don't have balls to say anything to a president who turns our country into a torture state... brings us into a warant-less foreign war... lets the markets deregulate to death, and all you can think about is how obama hasn't fixed everything in 2 months... prescious... just prescious.
let's all bury our money in our backyard, in hopes that our nation will become more productive!...
why would we ever want to spend money? new technologies? more efficient fuels? renewing the auto industry? stem cells? education? don't they know we are perfectly happy losing our homes, and living in squalor... as long as our biggest lobbyist companies make the money our country is fine! chevron is doin alright and they're part of america!!! see! we did it yeah tom boehner! you really did it! hurray. the GOP saved us again! boy, Obama sure did ruin our whole country in the 6-7weeks he has been in office... we need a go-getter like bush to smoke him out of his hole and righteously subject our country to his deciding powers.
ps, it's not you....it's the fox news... they did it to ya
youtube ultimate george bush stupidicity, try not to laugh
61. Sonic - March 17, 2009 2:05 PM
Haha, you guys crack me up.
Here's the thing, though: The distribution of wealth is wrong. Those rich people, up at the top, who will get taxed more now? They worked hard to get there. If you're a poor person, 90% of the time it's because you don't apply yourself enough. Maybe something happened that forced you to drop out of school, but there's no reason you can't go back to a community college, even part-time, to get a degree and be able to get a better job.
Also, the $200,000 income limit before you get taxed a lot more? That's not even that much. That's how much a family with both the husband and wife working could make. And you get taxed more for stepping out on a limb and starting your own business? That's called tyranny in the America I was born in.
62. dadoren - March 17, 2009 2:09 PM
Pardin Sir or mid dam
You claim Obama is Smart???
If this is true he is then truly Evil!
Being Charismatic doesn't make you smart.
In all his speeches he is vague and leaves important information out.
He is the Phone asterisk president : He tells you what you want to hear and leaves out hidden fees and does keep his promises and changes the contract frequently.
63. kittkatt - March 17, 2009 2:09 PM
you may not like Obama for his politics, but referring to our president with a snide "he's a commie or a terrorist" comment is damaging to our country as a whole. for eight years I was told that if i spoke poorly about the idiot that was torturing in my name and running my country in the d*mn ground that i was "helping" the taliban. So suck it up conservatives. stop being whiny puss hats and stop wishing failure on the leader of america.
and while you're at it, please pick up a book and figure out the difference between "communism" and "socialism"

66. Sonic - March 17, 2009 2:15 PM
I've nothing against Obama as a person, or even as a president - I just don't like some of his policies. I do think McCain would've been a better president, but I'll not know for another 4 years whether I'm right or not. I don't condemn the president, I just hope he figures out how to fix the country while not screwing everybody over.
67. debagger - March 17, 2009 2:16 PM
@ sonic
Your ignorance is only surpassed by your lack of elloquence.
Love your fact-finding abilities, too. 90% of poor people are lazy -- great reporting!
68. Sonic - March 17, 2009 2:17 PM
@debagger: Yes, yes we can.
69. zandar - March 17, 2009 2:23 PM
God, all you have to do is say Special Olympics and the retards come out of the woodwork. Know what they call that? magic.
70. Sonic - March 17, 2009 2:26 PM
Haha, debaggerr. You crack me up!
Now, as to the actual non-ad-hominem, let me clarify: I most certainly didn't say lazy, I said not applying themselves enough. There is a difference.
If someone honestly can't get a job, then fine. But most of the time, if they were willing, they could get a job. Not the best job, but better than not working at all.
Also, I prefer not to be flamed here. Have you looked at some of the comments from people on your side? Why can't we all just have a civilized debate here?!?
71. Nixon - March 17, 2009 2:37 PM
Godamnit this country was running pERFECTLY right up until Obama took office!!
Right?! I say am I right?!
72. Gordon "Fücking" Shumway - March 17, 2009 2:38 PM
@59 Well said. You deserve a klondike bar.
@70 Fück you.
73. debagger - March 17, 2009 2:43 PM
Your idea of a civilized debate is to tell people to 'find a job'. As if an ever-growing unemployment rate wasn't running rampant across this nation. I love your enthusiasm on how families should solve their fears of their children's future, or the uncertainty of where their next meal will come from. I think if you just yelled, "APPLY YOURSELF MORE," at all those unmotivated saps then this whole crisis would blow over.
You remind me of a lot of my ethnocentric friends: priveleged, affluent members of society who have more than a little trouble looking at things from another perspective. You all need a kick in the head.
74. Sonic - March 17, 2009 2:48 PM
Haha, privileged. Not so much. I've got a job, but my parents hardly ever buy me anything I want, I have to buy it myself. I have to work hard to get money. Sure, I live in a house and have food and internet provided to me, but that's about it.
Also, My first post may have been misstated. I was jsut getting so annoyed by all the people who were like, "The redistribution of wealth is awesome! I don't have to work as hard now!"
Also, @72: Nice, didn't know you were a homo.
75. Pew³ - March 17, 2009 2:53 PM

There are way too many words on this page to read.

76. debagger - March 17, 2009 2:57 PM
Backing down is a clear sign of absence of a counter-argument. However, I congratulate on realizing how much you don't understand. I'm a full-time student, and work 30 hours a week. I bust my ass so that one day I can have a well-paying job and property of my own. However, I realize what advantages are at my disposal over most of my peers. I can't complain for a second about the life a lead for it's far more extravagant than even I'd like to admit.
77. Gordon "Fücking" Shumway - March 17, 2009 2:58 PM
@74
I'm not....usually. It's your money that turns me on. All that sweet, W.A.S.P. money your family has had for the better part of a century. Get the silver spoon out of your mouth and your head out of your ass. When you finally move out of the sheltered privileged life of your parents house and move into the real world, you'll either have a vastly different opinion or you'll remain the same elitist asshat you are now. Either way, I don't care about you as long as I don't have to see you in real life. In other words, fück you!
78. Pew³ - March 17, 2009 3:02 PM
Ummm....it's a picture....of the Death Star...you know, from Star Wars.
Can someone give me the cliffs notes on this heated discusssion?
I can't read lots of words good.

@78
Read: The Butter Battle Book by Dr. Seuss
It's all explained in there. And I should have that icecream for you by next Thursday between 8am and 5pm. You must be home for delivery confirmation.
80. Sonic - March 17, 2009 3:11 PM
@77: Right, now I'm a guy with his head in his ass. And I'd liek to know wheere all this money is, so I can make use of it.
Also, silver spoons? Where can I get those?
@76: I'm a full time student, as well. In fact, for the same reason - work hard now, get a good job later. That doesn't make me any better than the rest of the world. And yes, I probably do have some advantages over other people - but then again, I also know people far better off than me. My parents aren't in debt for anything but their house, but they worked very hard to get there - my dad works >40 ours a week, and my mom's going to school so she can get a job. but, back to the actual topic at hand, what if she get s good job and our income goes over $200,000 a year? Do you really think that, because she applied herself and managed to get a new job, our entire family should have to pay for it? It's like the government is trying to say, "Don't do a good job. Be mediocre, and we'll play nice with you."
81. Sonic - March 17, 2009 3:12 PM
@79: You have just earned my respect for that reference, and that is exactly what this feels like.
82. debagger - March 17, 2009 3:31 PM
If you weren't aware (which I'm pretty sure you aren't), someone making $200,001 is subject to higher taxation of that ONE dollar. Idiot...

WHY do we have to assume every person arguing against Obama is an elitist privileged WASP and every person arguing for Obama is a commie? There really is no point in voicing any opinion here because every other person reading this is so closed minded they will just make fun of your post and then spout their own propaganda.
So lets all just drop this and discuss our favorite Woody Allen quotes. How bout this one: "Masturbation is just sex with someone I love." Man that's good stuff.

The destruction of the Deathstar was an inside job!!!!!
Open your eyes people, are we to believe that one farm boy from Tatooine was capable of such destruction?
Why did Darth Vader order all tie fighters to stand down moments before the destruction?
"I've got the leader" Yeah right, he let him escape.
Mike White founder of architects and engineers for Deathstar truth states "The deflector shields were capable of fending off an entire star-fleet, there was no need for space to space combat."
The Alderan test was lauded, however it is a well know fact that the emperor was extremely disappointed with the time it took to get into firing position.
The carbon fiber construction of the Deathstar had a tensile strength of 820,000 psi or 5,650 MPa or 5,650 N/mm²
It is scientifically impossible for a single blast from an X-wing to have caused the damage that happened.
It had to have been a controlled demolition, the blast lasted 7 seconds, that's free vacuum speed!
How convenient that both Vader and the Emperor were not on the Deathstar at the time of it's destruction.
Over 2000 innocent storm-troopers were murdered that fateful day.
Obi wan was the supposed mastermind?
He was just some kook a crazy old wizard living in a cave on Tatooine, (who the emperor trained and funded during the clone wars.)
The New Galaxy Order is responsible, open your eyes before it's too late.
This was clearly a false flag operation used to justify an invasion of Bespin.
It's all about tibanna gas, which is refined for production and transport in Cloud City and used in the production of starship blasters.
Lando harboring the terrorist Han Solo is no excuse to seize control of a sovereign nation.
As tax paying members of the galactic empire we must demand a new investigation into the destruction of the Deathstar!!!!!
We should be focused on securing our borders against Sand-People and Wookies.
Martial law is upon us don't let us be come a storm trooper state.
To be fully informed you must read "Rebuilding Galactic Defenses (RGD)" which is a policy document published by a neoconservative Coruscant think tank called the Project for the New Galactic Century (PNGC).
Determined to have their galactic empire, they offered an eerie prophecy on page 52 of that document about how it might be accomplished,
"Further, the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event – like a new Clone War."
Their dream of a catalyzing event could not have been better actualized than in the destruction of the Deathstar.

Hilarious idiocy of Bush haters & his debt is that it was (relatively) short-term debt and spending. Obama's spending is engineered to last forever. Other guy said he'd spend 100 years in Iraq? Those are the sort of economic assumptions Obama is making on his price tag (even tho he promised 2010 withdrawal). It's Enron accounting.
Obama is just the opiate of the people. At least the people sitting in their basement pew pew-ing on their keyboard all day.

@ softlicious: Honorable man? McCain chose a retard as his running mate soley as a publicity stunt. Swing and a miss....
I like how you ostracize GFS for calling you out when you said that the overwhelming majority of American voters were stupid...wrong, we finally woke up and chose the best possible scenario to fix what your incompetent party fcuked up for the past 7 or 8 years.
We already have some socialist ideas in place, we call them the police department, the fire department, and public school system, to name a few. I said it before, but I'd gladly pay higher taxes to know that people weren't dying because they were denied life-saving treatments by medical/insurance corporations like AIG, who are lining their pockets with taxpayer's money. A universal health care system is long overdue...call it socialist, communist, whatever...it's the right thing to do. Period.
You, softlicious, are an idiot and completely ass-backwards. I completely support your freedom to have an opinion, no matter how wrong or fcuked up it may be...I've been defending that freedom for the past 16 years. Just stop fooling yourself and trying to convince others that the blame falls soley on anyone other than your precious "W." or Republicans as a whole.

The fact of the matter is that I would gladly pay higher taxes for the assurence that if I were to be laid-off, I would still be able to get healthcare, or that if I needed an operation or medication, I wouldn't have to fight my insurance company's profits to get it.

I don't really understand this picture. The Death Star pictured is from Episode 6, not Episode 4, so the context isn't really correct. Are they saying we have to wait for Obama's 4th year for things to get better, or his 4th term? And doesn't Dick Cheney already have a lock on all the Dark Vader/Death Star/Dark Side analogies already? Is that copyright infringement on Star Wars, Cheney, or both? It's all so confusing. This is why only licensed professionals should be allowed to use Photoshop.
107. Jim Jones - March 18, 2009 1:44 PM
@93:
I think you need to do more research. How was anything that Bush did short-term? Bush is the one who turned several years of Clinton surpluses to deficit spending, has more than doubled the deficit during his terms in office without any strategy to pay it off, and he was the one who allowed most of that debt to be purchased by foreign investors. That's right, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan were funded by foreign investment. He also oversaw one of the biggest expansions of government in our history.
And where was your precious Bush when the fit hit the shan? He pretty much had his head in the sand as soon as the election started to ramp up. You can criticize how he's handling it, but at least Obama is doing SOMETHING, responding to the mess that Bush created and contributed to. And insofar as the bailout, much of that was developed before he took office.

Okay, I only got about 40 comments in before I couldn't look anymore.
softlicious- I'm not a socialist, nor a democrat, and you are an asshat. Not because of your ideals, but because of your sad, angry, pathetic attempts to use negative rhetoric to get your point across. Grow up.
This poster is funny. Like, actually laughed out loud for 3 seconds. The "bailout" is a horrid idea. Let the businesses that are going to fail, fail.
Stop trying to force banks to loan to people who can't afford to pay them back - I don't care what neighborhood they're in or what color they are. Had the government NOT forced them to loan to low income applicants in the first place - we wouldn't be in the spot we're in. In order to make those loans happen, they had to loosen oversight regulations - which is how we got here (with the banks anyway).

Actually, England has had national healthcare for some time now, and it's worked fine for them. Like social security for us, they can't imagine life without it. Likewise France and various other European nations.
113. Jim Jones - March 18, 2009 5:37 PM
@109:
No one "forced" the banks to loan to people who can't afford the loans. While the government did try to make it easier for low-income people to get loans, it was the bank's negligence for not doing their duty in getting accurate information from the prospective buyer to ensure they could pay back the loan. The fact is, the banks exploited the system by handing out the loans, then again when they re-packaged the bad debt and sold it over and over again. The government didn't tell them to make loans without asking for actual income, or to offer ARMs that are based on credit ratings, or to jack up interest rates, etc.

You stated that "national health care has never worked for any nation."
