Here's a cartoon that captures the essence of Hillary.

[Unknown Beatle]

Apart from the cartoonist, that cartoon captures what I have felt about Hillary leaning to the right.


Disclaimer: It's my opinion and I'm sticking to it.

[Scootaloo]

1. "It means "Forward"!!!" they said. I think skinner's font encapsulates Clinton much better.

^I^T ^P^O^I^N^T^S
^I^N ^E^V^E^R^Y
^G^O^D^D^A^M^N^E^D
^D^I^R^E^C^T^I^O^N

[reformist2]

10. This is awesome. How did you make that??

[Scootaloo]

35. It's a built-in DU feature (no bias though!)

You get it by putting a ^ in front of any capital letter

[reformist2]

38. ^W^O^W^!

^L ^O ^L ^! ^! ^!

[darkangel218]

41. Let me try

^H^I^L^L^A^R^Y!

[senz]

46. Ha! So that's where it came from ...

^B

So easy! I'll bet the Bernista who noticed the symbolism couldn't believe his/her luck.

[Live and Learn]

19. LOL That is so true! nt

[UglyGreed]

24. Now that is

a work of art

[PatrickforO]

26. Oh that's good! 26 different letters, 26 arrows pointing every which way!

What better font for a weather vane candidate?

[Hepburn]

51. Perfect...absolutely perfect

Defines Hillary to the max!

IMO, of course!

[Cali_Democrat]

2. Are Bernie supporters still complaining about Hillary's logo?

LOL!

That was so 6 months ago.

[Scootaloo]

3. Clinton supporters are still complaining about Bernie running, so why not?

[reformist2]

6. I'm still laughing about it too. It really is a terribly confusing logo for a Democrat.

[Cali_Democrat]

11. I'm laughing too, but not at the logo. nt

[NCTraveler]

33. You truly find it to be confusing?

This is getting better by the minute.

[stevenleser]

13. It's what you would expect of an eight year old but that's what they go with. nt

[Cali_Democrat]

14. Yep....back in grade school again. nt

[Live and Learn]

20. What do you mean? Even an 8 year old could come up with a better logo. nt

[840high]

42. Don't you have an article to write?

[BootinUp]

45. Where ya been man?

[opiate69]

62. As opposed to the staid maturity of the average Clinton supporter here, amitrite?

So, spare me the smug sanctimony. Your higher ground is looking decidedly soggy from my perspective.

[stevenleser]

63. And you should raise that in OPs discussing those signatures, not try to change the subject here

The OP did this to themselves by raising the subject of the logo

[mcar]

4. The logo, again?

Seriously?

[NurseJackie]

7. They see the poll numbers ... it's all they've got!

[Unknown Beatle]

9. Yes, seriously.

The more I hear her speak (Daesh, Glass-Steagall, Keystone, 9/11 Wall St. etc.), the more that red arrow pointing right comes into focus. It was probably inadvertent on the logo designer(s) part, but to me, it makes more sense since Hillary has titled right.

Maybe not when her logo was first introduced, but now it's making more sense.

[Fairgo]

34. Oh, it means exactly what it means

This is the winning design out of a long and thoughtful process. The designers, experts in the subject matter, considered a right pointing red arrow on Blue Bars and said this is exactly what she stands for! At some point this design went up on an easel and everybody who mattered stood around and said, "My, that's clever...I like that."
They are communicating directly and openly to those in power, while bullshitting the proles at the pep rally. I have to believe it is a bit of an inside joke that probably still gets a chuckle when they see members of the precariat fervently volunteering to wear the semiotic equivalent of a "kick me" sticker.

[dreamnightwind]

57. Yes, nothing as important as the logo in that campaign happens by accident

They probably paid millions for its design and evaluated it from every possible perspective.

When they made it, they weren't at all concerned about a challenge from the left. Let the left complain, they have nowhere else to go. So they didn't worry about a red right arrow offending the left.

Well, we do have somewhere else to go, thanks to Bernie. Warren would have been a good candidate too, but Bernie's doing great. And he isn't doing it by running as far to the center/right as possible, he's standing up for what we believe in.

[in_cog_ni_to]

5. That arrow pointing RIGHT, seems to have been a warning, considering her hawking MORE war yesterday.

n/t

[reformist2]

8. Her approving that was a mistake, almost a like a Freudian slip of honesty.

[Matariki]

12. That was my reaction to that logo

She could have chosen better. Jury is out on whether it's simply honesty or poor design.

[Live and Learn]

22. I am going with another 'mistake'. nt

[Doctor_J]

15. most of us old school democrats noticed that when it was first published

It's also red and blue, telling us she'll be half democrat and half republican. Not working for me.

[JTFrog]

23. Right? Who in the fuck could ever support a candidate with a red AND blue logo?

Yea, that's what I thought.

[SunSeeker]

39. LOL

[dreamnightwind]

58. But Bernie's red is buried in blue

not pointing the way to the future.

[Fairgo]

60. A precious response

[JTFrog]

61. Which was the perfect response to a precious post.

The fucking hypocrisy around here is THICK.

[PatrickforO]

27. Yeah, you know symbolism is real. Even if we don't see it plainly as those in the past

did, our unconscious minds ARE getting the message.

[NCTraveler]

32. Impressive. Nt

[bigwillq]

16. I never really had issue with the Hillary logo.

It's just a logo. Not something to get all cray about.

[Starry Messenger]

17. Logogate is so summer of 2015.

I guess we're out of material and into reruns now.

[Martin Eden]

18. Forward, she cried ...

... from the rear, and the front rank died.

War! Good God, y'all. What is it good for?

[Live and Learn]

21. +1 nt

[PatrickforO]

28. Yes, we have had enough war.

Clinton is wrong backing this new war powers act. Very wrong. War powers need to rest with Congress, not the executive branch. So, here's a little Sabbath for your enjoyment.

Generals gathered in their masses,
just like witches at black masses.
Evil minds that plot destruction,
sorcerer of death's construction.
In the fields the bodies burning,
as the war machine keeps turning.
Death and hatred to mankind,
poisoning their brainwashed minds...Oh lord yeah!

Politicians hide themselves away
They only started the war
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that role to the poor

Time will tell on their power minds
Making war just for fun
Treating people just like pawns in chess
Wait `till their judgement day comes, yeah!

Now in darkness, world stops turning,
ashes where the bodies burning.
No more war pigs have the power,
hand of god has struck the hour.
Day of judgement, god is calling,
on their knees the war pigs crawling.
Begging mercy for their sins,
Satan, laughing, spreads his wings...Oh lord, yeah!

[Dragonfli]

30. Also worth a listen

[Martin Eden]

37. That was one of my earliest rock albums.

Black Sabbath was my favorite group in '71-72 when I started high school, and I still think Paranoid is a significant piece of work.

[senz]

44. Certain lyrics from Dylan's "Masters of War"

have been going through my mind of late ...

Come you masters of war
You that build all the guns
You that build the death planes
You that build the big bombs
You that hide behind walls
You that hide behind desks
I just want you to know
I can see through your masks

You that never done nothin’
But build to destroy
You play with my world
Like it’s your little toy
You put a gun in my hand
And you hide from my eyes
And you turn and run farther
When the fast bullets fly

Like Judas of old
You lie and deceive
A world war can be won
You want me to believe
But I see through your eyes
And I see through your brain
Like I see through the water
That runs down my drain

You fasten the triggers
For the others to fire
Then you set back and watch
When the death count gets higher
You hide in your mansion
As young people’s blood
Flows out of their bodies
And is buried in the mud

You’ve thrown the worst fear
That can ever be hurled
Fear to bring children
Into the world
For threatening my baby
Unborn and unnamed
You ain’t worth the blood
That runs in your veins

How much do I know
To talk out of turn
You might say that I’m young
You might say I’m unlearned
But there’s one thing I know
Though I’m younger than you
Even Jesus would never
Forgive what you do

Let me ask you one question
Is your money that good
Will it buy you forgiveness
Do you think that it could
I think you will find
When your death takes its toll
All the money you made
Will never buy back your soul

And I hope that you die
And your death’ll come soon
I will follow your casket
In the pale afternoon
And I’ll watch while you’re lowered
Down to your deathbed
And I’ll stand o’er your grave
’Til I’m sure that you’re dead

[aidbo]

47. This lyric gave me chills when I first grokked what this song was about

You’ve thrown the worst fear
That can ever be hurled
Fear to bring children
Into the world

[senz]

49. I wouldn't be surprised if that fear returns.

Too depressing.

Sooo, let's avoid the worst by electing the best!

[aidbo]

50. ^_^

[Dragonfli]

29. Deserves a listen

[Martin Eden]

36. Perhaps their greatest blend of music and meaning.

I listed to 4 straight PF albums during a long drive on Sunday, including DSotM.

[senz]

48. They were so good.

Sure brings back memories, too. Thanks!

[UglyGreed]

25. Oh no.........

Logo-Gate 2

[NCTraveler]

31. Still on the logo. Love it. Nt

[NurseJackie]

53. They've gone full circle. Starting with NOTHING and back to NOTHING!!

They know that Bernie will be the LOSER, and Hillary will be the WINNER!

Clowns to the left of us, jokers to the right, here I am stuck in the middle with you.

[NCTraveler]

54. Too funny!!! Nt

[MisterP]

40. the Greeks had a deity for this

[MrMickeysMom]

43. I'm not either...

Interesting... I wonder how long this feature has been around? Seems a little preferential

[Hepburn]

52. Preferential?

Ya think!

[MrMickeysMom]

64. Don't ever say...

... that I never hold back on what I ^R^E^A^L^L^Y think, Hepburn...

[NCTraveler]

55. It seems to be more mocking the people looking at it.

Mocking the limited intelligence of people confused by simplicity.

[SidDithers]

56. Oh good, we haven't had a BAD HILLARY LOGO thread in a while...nt

Sid

[pinebox]

59. Enough said
