No doubt we have a superstar president.

Pres Obama is intelligent, affable , worldly, great looks and in sync with the youth of America.

We are so incredibly fortunate to have him in these rough times largely inherited by the fascist Cheney Presidency and his buffoon sidekick.

Ooh, cool! Where do I sign up? I want one of him dressed as Uncle Sam, including the gray beard! He should be pointing at the viewer (like in the recruiting poster) and saying, “Hey, YOU! What have you done for your country lately, Mofo?”

Hey it is amazing how writers are unwilling to research an art style. Just because some one paint a primitive painting does not mean that work of …. falls into the folk art style of painting. Not everyone can be a true folk artists but everyone can throw paint on paper…

Just couldn’t stand not to be ugly to somebody so you zinged the governor.

Have fun. Just remember you gave everyone a look at you soul and dude it’s ugly.

How much I like that kind of bleep can best be told from the fact I haven’t checked to see how the various “artists” have brutalized any of our last presidents nor the people running for office nor their families.

I see more than enough of that kind of puke put forward by people like the poster.

I saw a TV ad for a furniture store that skews to “Urban” customers especailly in the “art” they sell. They had a version of “The Last Supper” with an all black cast and Obama in the center seat.

You lot are hilarious – as in laughable. Certainly, you know nothing about art – or folk art. Popularity of topic in the public eye is what it’s always been about. That’s why Elvis and Jeebus.

And your ability to judge public popularity is probably measured by how many of you voted for whatshisname? And the dimwit before him. Twice.

Please stop! How long will I have to keep seeing pictures of Obama everywhere?
This 21st century is shaping up to be a cross between ‘1984′ and the film ‘Idiocracy’.

Yup, there have been a lot of creative images of Obama.

To name just a few: Obama in Germany “Ich bin ein Beginner”, Obama as a Greek god with his pillars in Denver, Obama with his 57-state pin, the 46 Year Old Political Virgin, Obama and his teleprompter, Obama and his pecs in Hawaii, Obama as the Sham Wow guy, Obama and Che – The Same Old Socialism, Obama as the Post Turtle, Obama as the Messiah, Mad Magazine’s cover of Obama after the First 100 Minutes.

These silly ass “peices of art” have nearly replaced the typicaly wonderful works of Elvis on a black velvet background, available while in the auto queues heading north from TJ into San Diego.

“…portrayals of the 44th president naked on a unicorn, often performing gallant deeds like wrestling a bear on Wall Street or taking the controls of the US Airways flight that landed in the Hudson River…”

What?? Are these people sick? What the hell does Obama have ANYTHING to do with what happened on the US Airways flight? This idol worshipping is making me nauseated…
