Obamao Fails in His Mission to Spread “Free Speech”

Stop censoring the internet, oh but make this guy shut down his website!!!!!obamao

BEIJING — President Obama spent the second day of his state visit to China in the capital Monday, and the government adopted a two-track policy toward Obama memorabilia for sale here: Obama dressed as Superman was in, and Obama dressed as a Red Guard was out.

Liu Mingjie learned the latter lesson. He is the designer and entrepreneur behind the popular “Oba Mao” image, which takes a silk-screen likeness of Obama and dresses him in a green jacket and cap to resemble the late Communist leader Mao Zedong.

Since September, Liu’s shop had been doing a brisk business selling the hugely popular Oba Mao T-shirts, purses and magnets. Oba Mao became one of the hottest-selling items in town, particularly among urban young people and online “netizens.” Oba Mao melded two iconic images — even if no one could explain precisely what it meant.

But suddenly last week, Liu had no more supplies, and no explanation why. Liu nervously did not want to answer a reporter’s questions. He also removed most of the Oba Mao articles and photos from his blog. Source>>>

    LMAO

    You gotta love that, he goes there to tell them to stop censorship of the internet. All the while he is doing the samething here. And on top of that, on his mission to spread free speech, they shut down a web site because the guy who runs it, doesnt like Obamao. Thats good stuff right there.

    Free speech is only popular when it doesn’t go against the black, etc culture. I was about to say politician but that would have made me a huge liar. Every president since the beginning of presidents or shortly after has had political cartoons, satire etc and no of the got there undies in a bunch the way society/msm is about this man. It makes me sick. As far as his site being taken down, that is complete nonsense, what they can have all these other sites up bad mouthing us, or things we believe in running and not only threatening us bc they feel they have the opportunity to slam, insult, threaten Eurofolk bc we are proud of who we are? I’m going to put together a piece on this and a serious violation of free speech. Grt post Rob~
