The New York Times reports that Barack Obama, during a meeting with Democratic governors in Chicago, sat behind a previously unseen and very official-looking seal bearing his name. Featuring an eagle clutching an olive branch, the seal resembles that of the President of the United States. Above the eagle's head is the phrase, "Vero Possumus," which the Times translates as being roughly equivalent to "Yes We Can."

I'll be the first to admit that I think it will be a runaway in November for Senator Obama... That doesn't mean his campaign should claim the Presidential logo in JUNE as their own and change the details a bit.
I can PhotoShop my face onto a 100 dollar bill, it doesn't make me Benjamin Franklin.
He can wait until he's actually got the job to have the business cards printed.
Please!!! please!!! please!!!!! Obama stop trying too hard to show your patriotism. Trash this.
This is so lame and pretentious. It's worse that that time he marched into his press conference flanked by all the retired generals and flags, flags, flags! I wish he'd quit trying to get ahead of himself.
he needs to shrink it to the size of a lapel pin add some red, white and blue strips and the symbol police will finally be pleased.
Yeah true, HopeGirl :D
All I can say is get use to seeing Sen. Obama as Presidential because he WILL be our President very soon!
Vets For Obama/Webb '08
bingo!
It's missing the hammer and sickle.
We are saving that for after the election. We have a spot reserved for you in a re-education camp.
LOL. I figured as much. Right after we take care of free speech right?
How about something WPA ish.....li
"Getting to Work Rebuilding America"?????
This is a joke right?
No, he is the joke. Let's get some grownups in government
Thats a joke right?
The other choice is an "Assisted Living" candidate.
Like who? Come on, give us some names.
How is he a joke?
Still bitter over Hillary's loss eh?
You mean like the grownups that have screwed everything up the last seven years? Yeah right. We need more of those for sure. NOT!
Very Third Reichish..
And his supporters maintain that he is not arrogant. Yeah...rig
And so, you must find the presidential seal and the flip side to most of our coins very Third Reichish, right? So transparen
Oh, I wouldn't worry too much about the Obama Reich. You're already living in Little Hitler's America, especially if you're in the Trinidad area of DC. Anybody else alarmed by this experiment in police state living: http://ap.
This is the first positive thing I have seen about BHO. As a conservative I don't agree with his politics nor did I fall for his campaign slogan of change. To use that logo the guy must have a good sense of humor, that I like.
good, he's got your vote too.
I talked with my right wing bumper sticker repo brother-yes he is on board as well. He actually promised me that he would not get sucked into the old scare tactics of atomic attacks, gay people and higher taxes.
whatever gets you here Mike is fine by me, the last thing we need this year is a bunch of easily manipulated nitwits ruining it for the rest of the country.
getting on board is your 1st step to recovery and redemption.
welcome
I think the seal is awesome. The only thing it needs is the american flag. Go President Obama!
Good Lord you sound ridiculous. It's embarrassing to read it, TBQH.
latin!
Now that's Old School!
Instead of "very possumus" why not "akuna matada"?
What's next? The American flag? Obama's arrogance is out of control.
Is it supposed to look like wedgewood?
No silly...it
Is there anyone at Huff who can translate into Latin:
"But I'm a toon. Toons are supposed to make people laugh. "
Barack!! Just be yerself - that's why you won the primary. Stop clowning around and don't vote for the revised FISA bill that provides immunity for the telecoms!
Oh brother!
I like it! I think we needed a new sybol for a long time now! It's respectful and well done! It's saying "We will win", and we will have a new beginning! It's blue, and our new beginning will be with clean , blue sky that our children and grand children will inherite. Yes, by all means, I like it!
yeah, right....
