Figures. Weird Obama Salute Was Stolen From Star Trek "Space Hippies" Episode
Groovy-- Today's freaks were yesterday's space hippies!
The new Obama salute was stolen from Star Trek's "Space Hippies" episode:
It's supposed to represent hope and progress:
...Or, interplanetary peace.
Spock gives the Obama cult sign:
Coincidence?
I'll go get your Koolaid, my children.
Here's the video.
UPDATE: Michelle Malkin offers a few other suggestions for the Obama camp.

Amazing the extent to which ignorance can simply materialize slogans and symbols without substance or logic. I believe this (hand gesture) was the only ingredient missing to officially call Obama supporters CULT members.
1. illogical explanation of circumstance and corrective actions.
2. Worldly possessions are a bad thing and must be taxed or taken.
3. The "One" shall cater to your every need.
And
4. A hand gesture to signify unity within the deranged association.
...either cult or street gang.
neither should be running our country.

Hmmm... hand signals.. ears... what next? Very presidential
OMFG....that is hysterical.
The true believers in Barack are one strange group.
They just keep getting creepier every day.
I can't wait for the convention.
When there are fifty thousand of them all together and drinking liquor they will be out of control.
Mix that in with the angry Hillary supporting PUMA's and you got a mixture for some good fun.
Spock meets Obama!
Spock Vulcan-deathgrips Obama!
Spock then mindmelds Obama with Al Gore!
Then Kirk gets to rip open his shirt and kick Obama's and Al's ass.
When I was a schoolboy, using that two-handed gesture forming an "O" would have been enough to get the crap beat out of you.
It was the equivalent of calling someone an a.hole.
It gets even weirder! This is from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Way_to_Eden - the episode with the space hippies -
The group is impressed by Mr. Spock however, who gestures with an oval "symbol of peace" the party makes with raised hands, and speaks of "The One".
Great, now all the moonbats will run around calling Bush, "Herbert".
The space hippies were looking for Eden, thought they found it, only to find that the place was a lot different and far more deadly than expected. Sounds about right.
Cool! Now we just need some sort of greeting we can say to each other to go along with the new hand gesture. Here is my idea, how about "Heil Obama". It's kind of foreign sounding like "Vero Possumus". That would be kind of cool. And then at the DNC convention we can all chant in unison Sieg Heil! and Heil Obama!
"We reach!"
From goose-step to goose-egg.
Pwecious.
This is completely off subject, but I just read this at http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,400026,00.html
Though today's date doesn't have quite the same symbolic weight as 06/06/06 — a number often considered evil and named in the Bible as the date the Antichrist would be revealed — many are nevertheless buzzing about 08/08/08's potential implications.
Ummm, what?
Did anyone notice that the space hippies (and Spock, for that matter) have big ears? Coincidence?
Talk about a tin ear for politics and the messages sent by symbols!
Can things like the "Nightwatch" armbands from "Babylon 5" be far behind.
Honestly, this is looking more and more like a runup, not to the Democratic Party convention but, to the Nuremberg Party rally.
This is priceless. I think it might describe these folks. Don’t miss the ads and links.
Is this serious?
What's next, a sale on brown shirts? (Or is it racist to talk about brown shirts?)
"Goin' down to Eden, yeah, brother!"
We should suggest another Obama sign: the OK sign with the index finger and thumb in a circle. Of course, when you do that, the remaining fingers are a W, and above the O!
Take that, you symbol merchants!
Star Trek?!?!
Nah! So far EVERYONE who's posted a comment have missed it...
Missed it badly!...
If taxpayers (a.k.a. productive citizens) think they are getting hosed now they'll look back to the present with nostalgia...
That's how much bigger the hosing orifice will look like after four years of Obama and a Democrat Congress...
SIGN OF PROGRESS
Obama, the sign of progress? What progress?
The salute is very juvenile - they should all grow up.
neo comes close (beat me to it about asshats) but it really signifies Barry - flesh on the outside, empty on the inside, the perfect sign for the empty suit that is The Obomination.
Doesn't sound like this has any actual buy-in from the campaign, or anyone. Nor does it look like they are actually the same hand signals.
Reminds me of Jimmy Carter, I don't like it.
You are all wrong! It's a symbol of the Year Zero that the Khmer Bleu will impose as soon as Obama takes office.
What's intersting to me about htat episode is the guy who played the guitar and was the cool, hip one is the same guy that played an amry general in "Austin Powers".
And there I was thinking it was a hand symbol for the kaaba stone.
Thank goodness it isn't, give me a tin hat.
Now the guy leading the post modern hippies was
A College Professor (Tech not Law)
Lied to his followers
Turned out to be evil in his intent
Obama's graphic is disturbing. The melding of both hands into one as if everything must fit through his round gate or be refused entry into his kingdom.
The graphic looks like Obama answered the little girl's question, "Why are you running for President?" with the response, "See these hands? They make it all the better to wring your neck with, my dear!"
I'm gonna crack my knuckles and jump for joy, I've got a new rally gesture for Obama oh joy!!
When Nimoy met Obama, Obama gave Nimoy the "Vulcan salute". Nimoy said now he was sure who to vote for. haha I love it-our next president being part Vulca and people are worried about him being black and/or Muslim when it is the Romulans they need to worry about!
The new Obama salute is scary in more ways than one...it signifies his interest in creating the "One world government", and at the same time makes it look like you are praying to him. Isn't that what the dems are doing? Praying to him to save them from the evil republicans who have kept them safe in their country for 8 years?
Isn't everything the Obama campaign has said or done been copied from somewhere else?
I only thing new or original about his entire effort is the color of his skin.
YIPES! IT'S A TWOFER!
They're even wearing a little egg thingy on their suspenders, or whatever. Look closely for the yellow spot in the white oval...
...here...
True, it's not as colorful as this, but then Obie is, after all, so much more hip.
I mean, a circle within a circle, and now another circle, ...WOW! Just WOW!
What a dweeb!
Finally someone with an eye...or shall we say an "all seeing eye"? Did anyone else see the Masonic parallel complete with rays of light? Ever look closely at our dollar bill and the top of that little pyramid? Maybe Barry IS the anti-Christ.
