>>Well, JFK should be pictured balling his eyes out and shaking his finger at little brother Ted and all the other Dim traitors.<<

You DO mean "bawling," don't you?

I actually think balling works quite well, myself.

That cross is photshopped from an Ikea catalogue. The face is a bit Eton schoolboyish and the crown of thorns looks like a fashion accessory. Sorry don't like that painting,,,aesthetic ponse as I am.

...and that is your right.

Photoshopped????????

Christ Carrying the Cross, ca. 1505-10

Ummm.....no....I think either would be correct. :)

"Imagine if a conservative paper photoshopped a picture of Bill Clinton groping a woman and tried to present it as accurate."

They could use the Dan Rather defense: "The photo is a phoney, but the story's true."

Circle of Bellini eh?

Effete, and lacking any theological substance would be my view.

Just because someone can paint well, doesn't mean what they paint is worthwhile.

Good gravy, I had no idea this guy was Italian!

Only in America can an Italian immigrant grow up to be a native American poster boy for environmentalism!

Here is the Time magazine cover when they decided that O.J. Simpson needed darker skin.

I was complaining last night about this. I greatly admired Reagan and think he was a great leader worthy of praise. I posted an article last night about how close Reagan was to Mexico-- just like Bush.

But it does not matter. Conservative have consented to making Reagan in their own image. The outrageous tirades against immigration that roll around conservative circles have no basis in empirical political success.

This attitude has never been successfully defended. I am not saying it cannot and I personally would be fine if Duncan Hunter prevailed, but I am disgusted with how shabbily President Bush is treated because he is "a traitor on the border." It is bogus.

The Time article cover is exactly the right tactical move for the Left to continue dismantling the conservative movement. The bogus facade of remembering Reagan has become absurd and will be the undoing of Republicans and conservatives.

Another example of MSM's lack of credibility.

When I was a kid my Dad and I used to watch old westerns on tv. Very often when all the Indians were coming to attack my Dad would yell, "Here come the Italians".

It looks photoshopped...it is not worthwhile.

Once again, you're entitled to your opinion.

But the Leftists complain when movies use the names of real people, real events, and real settings, but fictionalize the dialog and historic details?

I concur wholeheartedly. This painting makes it appear Our Lord is on his way to a Friday night square dance.
