    I can see why - lots of heavy-handed 16th/17th century-style allegory at play in this painting.

    It's pornography.

    The artist doesn't like uppity Negroes and disapproves of poor people getting health care. He's a bigot of several shades.

    Obama will crush these pigs in November.

    I like how all the Shiet house artist's disparage the man but yet don't offer their portfolios for inspection.
    A professor I had in College disparaged Salvatore Dali and I was a fan. My Prof gave me his website to look at his personal work, I had to lie to his face and tell him that I was impressed. I did get an A for the course. ha ha

    By the way, if your in the States, the Dali Museum is in St. Pete's Florida.

    Ever hear of the elephant that is the room, that everyone denies ?

    I like the fact that Reagan looks like an older Sarkozy.
