    oh no Godwin's Law! He was actually quite good, good enough to sell his pieces to passersby, just not good enough to get into art school.
    Strangely enough there is a steady trade in Hitler's paintings, one watercolour recently sold at €40,000.

    I dunno, some of the places he's been to this week are probably admiring the position he's in, how got there........and how he's managing to keep it, given all the stories/evidence in the public domain. Sneaking admiration, even....

    Speak for your own perception of Ireland and not others. If you can find where he has been convicted of anything do post as he hasn't.
