Interesting art.

The irony is that Abe is shown as pro-Constitution when it was he who abolished federalism and created a central government. Practically America's first monarch. I guess if you buy into the slavery revisionism that's rampent today it makes sense.

Edit: Best part IMHO, is the fiat dollar and slavery connection. Nice touch.

Thomas Kincaid meets Family Circle with a dash of hokie paytriotism....set to a heavy metal rift for some unknowable reason.

Modern "art" is still an abortion of creativity and a flourishment of exploitation of the gullible.

Impressionism was probably the last real school of art, and that is a very grudging admission.

Sorry, I assumed you knew all of us left coast ivory tower elitist vaguely gay liberals are artsy farty weenies ready to critique supposed "art" like this at the drop of a beret?

Not to brag (but if I must) but I've been to a good number of the finest art institutions in Europe and America.

I minced about the galleries, my left hand holding a Cosmo, my right the hand of my life partner Rodrigo, a look of critical derision on my face, infuriated at any works by evil dead white men that dared appear in the Renaissance gallery (would it kill them to have some diversity there?!), tempered only by my elitist smugness that I paid the "recommended donation" to get in whilst the bedraggled mases gave whatever loose change they busked for outside back in their ghettos.

My hunch is you really have nothing to brag about. That's why you always do it.
