Painting Shows Obama Trampling Constitution

SALT LAKE CITY -- A new painting of President Barack Obama by a Utah artist is stirring things up politically.

The piece, which includes every U.S. president, is titled "The Forgotten Man" and shows Obama stepping on the U.S. Constitution.

"I feel like our presidents have really forgotten who put them there," artist Jon McNaughton said.

[arbusto_baboso]

I'm sure if someone asked this asshole "artist", McNaughton...

Just exactly HOW Obama is "trampling the Constitution", he wouldn't have any coherent asnwer. His kind never does.

[EmeraldCityGrl]

14. My thoughts exactly. they can never seem to articulate

exactly what it is he has done to deserve their viciousness and hate. It's always a bunch of generalities.

[RC]

1. Ya who?

I haven't had a need for them for years.

[musette_sf]

8. Yeah, Carol Bartz is really enhancing the brand

Ya know, it just occurred to me that maybe it's Bartz who's driving these teabagger events in Marin County.

In fact, I wouldn't be surprised to find out that Bartz is in tight with Fiorina and Whitman. It would be kind of logical for those three to have an alliance. I'lm betting Bartz and Fiorina go way back. HP was always big in CAM/CAD, and Autodesk drove a pretty significant HP market.

Yep, time to stop using Yahoo. Will have to find my Dear Abby elsewhere.

13. What I derive from this info

is for the most part a fairly predictable series of donations made by an area CEO.

Mostly donations on both sides of the fence to local pols.

Quite a few donations to a Silicon Valley Dem rep who is very, um, "pro-business"*. Nothing unusual there.

But she does seem to have the Bu$hie and Puke love.

* Let's just say that after having Pete Stark as my rep for years, I'm somewhat less thrilled to be represented by Ms. Eshoo due to a recent move.

[Ian David]

2. Because Obama is only 3/5 of a President? n/t

[blogslut]

3. Good old McNaughton the hack

He's the "artist" who did that Jesus-holding-the Constitution painting.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

4. He is an idiot.

Obama has done nothing unconstitutional, especially when you compare him to Bush.

Click the video to see the painting.

Recommended.

[jkshaw]

5. McNaughton graduated from the Mormon

School, Brigham Young University. This painting he said was inspired by a vision he had. He has a major problem, for an artist, with capturing likenesses.

[Dappleganger]

7. Mormons and their "visions."

That's how they justified excluding African Americans from their church for so long, as well as justifying child brides.

[musette_sf]

6. One of the sickest things I have ever seen

And don't ya know, of course TR, FDR and WJC are smiling and applauding this.

I'd post the image but I don't want to give this POS one iota of undeserved exposure.

Jon McNaughton, the Tea Party's Thomas Kinkade.

I wonder if McNaughton is a closet freak and abusive personality, just like Kinkade.

And I fervently hope that like Kinkade, an ugly downward spiral is in McNaughton's karma too.

[Brickbat]

9. Truly, truly awesome. I love his scroll-over options on his website.

Lincoln is SO PISSED in that picture! And Madison is all, DUDE, YOU'RE STEPPING ON THE PAPER!

[Bitwit1234]

10. Wonder if some news reader on TV would ask a straw brained

republican to just sit down and put down all the rights Obama and the Democratic party have trampled on since Obama took office. fox gets it's viagra fix by spewing this crap and the tea bags and straw brained republicans just parrot it over and over and not a damn one of them knows what they are talking about. I would love it for more of the Democrats to get more aggressive on TV. They don't get too much chance to tell OUR side of the story on TV, the right wing nutso and liars are all over the place, but damn it if they spoke out and yelled out that the republicans lie about everything and tell the country all the lies they spew we might get some of OUR message out there.

[Froward69]

12. Elder Bush is just behind WBush who looks unsure, or not paying attention.

with TJ and Grant astride Lincoln.
LBJ and JFK on the GOOD side of history??
FDR, Taft, Woodrow and Teddy are all on the extreme evil side,

the division between the two groups has Nixon in the middle!

what grabs me and makes it blatantly dumb is ... "The forgotten man" must be so despondent to not see (or pick up) all the money at his feet. As well as the "Joe average forgotten man." is distorted.

as well as the Depth of the painting is shallow with the characters all out of proportion.

the vile comic can be seen here
?w=514&h=343

[TroglodyteScholar]

15. Yet, nobody even had to paint this...
