Apparently the re-election 2012 campaign officially kicked off with the memorial slogan (photo h/t Stray yellow dog)

which has been borrowed wholesale from the 2008 campaign

and

And to think this wasn’t even planned, but a gift from a crazy man and an irresponsible/negligent sheriff.
Who cares? While raising money, one can keep lecturing
and meanwhile
a billion is needed to buy propaganda when news events can’t be twisted
But a billion dollar presidential re-election bid is unlikely to be launched or sustained for long exclusively with small donors. Even in 2008, Obama’s eye-popping online giving was matched with larger donations generated by roughly 700 big and small bundlers.
One can only wonder, what astonishing new logos will one billion buy! I can’t wait!
I mean, think about it, in 2008
To be sure, it’s early, and Obama and his team have proven to be prodigious fundraisers. In 2008, the president raised $745 million and became the first nominee in modern history to decline public funding and finance his campaign entirely with private money.
and we got wonders like this one

I can’t wait for the more expensive version!

Icky, tacky tawdry. RWers are calling it a griefapoolza, I just call it the kickoff to –> Obama, the 2012 edition. And all this, while you watch from “above” as your crazy fans crush the opposition at the same time? Priceless.
