Not really poker related but take a look at this fantastically racist billboard targeting President Obama on his efforts as far as the United States president. This billboard, which is a toned down version from artist and Tea Party member Paul Snover’s original version which included a Swastika, a Muslim and numerous communist Soviet emblems.
The ‘artwork’ is a poker themed advert in Grand Junction depicts the country's first African-American president with not one but four caricatures, each showing him as a jihadi terrorist, a cigar-smoking gangster, a Mexican bandit in a sombrero and a flamboyant gay man.
The four caricatures are all seated around a poker game and the billboard's headline reads: "Vote DemocRAT, Join the game."
The artist, a self-described "Constitutionalist libertarian", would not reveal who commissioned and paid for the billboard, in a report by Charles Ashby of the Grand Junction Sentinel.
Amusing.
