Obama Salute Goes Back Further Than We Knew

It turns out the lineage of the official Obamunist salute goes back further than the astro-hippies on Star Trek[1].

Here’s the Obamaniac “Sign of Progress”:

The German Propaganda Archive[2] provides this caption:

The hands of the Führer organize his speech. This picture captures Hitler’s hands as he speaks of the unity of the National Socialist and socialist ideas.

I thought the idea of the salute was to make a zero, summing up the emptiness of the Obamania phenomenon. But maybe it represents the circle that race-obsessed, socialist progressives go round and round in, decade after decade, without making any progress.
