...or else George Bush made him paint it.

Well, that exhausts the supply of Leftist arguments.

Then next thing that they are likely to say is “Poopypants, poopypants...Conservatives are dumbheads!!!!”
or the equivalent, but with $7.95 college words.

Every picture tells a story.
This painting narrates our times.

I'm just joshing ya, ol' timers will remember those sick-o paintings int he Denver Airport with all those freemason dead Christian images, truly chilling, the style of that Obama painting looks like it could have been done by the same person. If you want to see some bizarre stuff google the denver airport paintings ...

There were alot of threads on them back in the day ...

perfectly captured obama’s arrogance. and smugness. can’t say I have ever seen him cross his arms like in the picture. but, I avoid watching him.

*How long until WH makes comment on this..4....3..2..?*

I’m waiting for Breyer to suggest an amendment to burn any and all such paintings.

Dove tials very well with bill ayers standing on the American flag.

Birds of a feather.

Beautiful art. All great art is political!

Though I have some serious reservations about some of the Presidential blurbs on the website animated version of the work. Cleveland is misrepresented. Also where is Cool Cal?

Carter should be front and center clapping, fwtw!

I really like the painting, but he’s somewhat inconsistent on his stated positioning of conservative presidents on the right (viewer’s left) side of the ‘Forgotten Man’ and liberals on his left side. For example, why is William McKinley at the far extreme left of the man, on the same side as Clinton and FDR? McNaughton’s comment on McKinley was even positive, on how he presided over a period of prosperity and made gold the base of the currency.

Correction, McNaughton himself didn’t say there were conservative presidents on one side and liberal presidents on the other, the commentator said this. Still, McKinley doesn’t seem to belong where he is placed in the painting.

Coolidge is to the left (as you’re looking at the painting) of Kennedy ...

If you go to the site and read the artist's commentary, he is not exactly complementary of W.
