Guy Fairey Inspired Obama Art

Shephard Fairey, a well know left coast guerilla art plagarist, created some the most ubiquitous Obama campaign images. Fairey's Obama images were based on Fairey's "Obey Giant" campaign, which was based, in turn, on icons from the fascist regimes of Stalin, Lenin, and Castro.

Now Robert has stumbled across a website that allows you to create your own Fairey-Obama icons, and slogans to boot.

"Don't Suspect A Friend - Turn Him In"
"War is Peace"
"Love is Hate"
"Ignorance is Strength"
"Freedom is Slavery"

Here's my icon (sans .50 caliber sniper rifle).
