IMAO is getting his with literal Obamabots. Look at this comment to a recent post:
Bane says:
I think Romney’s tenure at Bain & Company and Bain Capital is a weakness because it associates him with vulture capitalism even though some in the media try to cast it as a strength. Come November more and more people will realize that buying companies, raiding their pension funds, and offshoring their operations is not a good background from a head of state. By the way, the summer movie season and specifically the Dark Knight Rises should help. I came across this website and thought it was funny. It says that Romney may be the Bane of Existence using a pun involving the villain Bane and Bain Capital.
I know what you’re thinking: “How could you tell this was a bot when the comment sounds so natural?”
Yeah, really. I especially love how at the end he explicitly explains the Bain/Bane pun since someone who might vote for Obama would probably be dumb enough to be confused by that.
Still, this Bane thing is kind of risky for Obama to cling to. For one, the different spellings does make it a little awkward in a written parody. Also, apparently Bane in the movie is not some corporate guy trying to get rich but instead someone stirring up class warfare and hatred of the rich. Doesn’t that remind you a lot more of Obama?
Finally, between Obama and Romney, who is more likely to be Batman? Doesn’t Romney just fit the profile of someone so bored by his riches that at night he dresses up as a bat and punches poor people?
Figures….liberals can’t spell.
Yea and Barry has had so much business experience…
Don’t forget, Bane, that Romney likes to fire people.
Yes!
Like 1/2 of all Federal employees.
He should punch hippies instead
I figured it was a bot due to the line:
Dead. Giveaway.
Great tweet today from @andylevy:
Hey when you realize Bane and Bain are homophones let everyone know cuz you’re definitely the first person to think of that!
@John – Romney gives them haircuts anyway – it’s a start.
Please stop reminding folks of Mittens poor folk punching issue. That was the 90’s and all the cool rich kids were doing it.
Sure maybe he punches poor people to cure his rich guy boredom, but he doesn’t eat their dogs. Which would you rather have, a rich guy president caring enough to show up and give you a face punch wake-up call/job seeking incentive, or Obama putting fido on a skillet?
(Question not intended for fellow Jack Russell owners who would likely provide the condiments)
So… Bane was a cyber-troll?
A.U. = Artificial Un-intelligence!
I think Obama will be the villain, The Oblumbler
I think Obama will be the villain, The Obumbler.
(thought with the typeo, its almost still as funny)
Don’t feed the trolls! Unless you want to go epic like you did with the “Limey”!
