Protest Poster Mania

Vehement Tax Day Tea Party Signs in Chicago Bash Barack Obama

— April 16, 2009 — Social Good
After our fun tea party couture diversion yesterday, we’re taking a more serious look at the Tax Day Tea Party, specifically at the protest pictures that are beginning to hit the web in outrage against Barack Obama.

This gallery includes pictures of the Tax Day Tea Party in Chicago with an emphasis on the signs people have created in order to have their voices heard, or in this case, seen all over the world.

Signs reading, “Obama lied, prosperity died!” and “I’m not even 2 yrs old… and I’m ALREADY in DEBT!” and “R.I.P. AMERICAN DREAM 1776-2008” expose the pouring out of emotion of many Americans, but will their Tax Day Tea Party have any impact?
Trend Themes
1. Protest Poster Mania - The trend of creating impactful protest posters is gaining momentum as people use visual expression to voice their frustrations.
2. Vehement Tax Day Tea Party Signs - The use of strong and provocative signs at Tax Day Tea Party protests is capturing attention and sparking conversations.
3. Outrage Against Barack Obama - The outrage against Barack Obama is being powerfully expressed through protest signs, showcasing the depth of dissatisfaction among Americans.

2. Print and Signmaking - The production of vehement tax day tea party signs presents an opportunity for businesses in the print and signmaking industry to cater to the demand for eye-catching protest signage.
3. Political Commentary - The outrage against Barack Obama and the powerful messages expressed through protest signs create opportunities for political commentators to analyze and discuss the sentiments of the American public.
