22 shots of the faces of women from great paintings and photographs from Botticelli (Venus) to Goya (Duchess of Alba) to Ida Welles and Toni Morrison (photos) and Bernini's St. Teresa sculpted in ecstasy.

I will have it up on Youtube with a link for folks to see it.

while he was in office. Every single one had the comment section disabled. That's how bitter and hateful we've become. Sick society. His speech to the British Parliment was astonishing, and their reaction was incredible. It wasn't that long ago...

20 years later! Remember in that 2016 debate when Hillary Clinton was responding to his non-commitment to accepting the outcome of the election. She outlined examples of his pattern of saying any time he lost it was rigged. One of her examples was losing the Emmy and he interrupted her and said, “I should’ve won it!” The timing of another President O’Bama award with his shameless, callous, lie-filled lobbying for a Nobel Peace prize is especially fitting!😁

Unlimited power of a dictator and there’s no human being on earth he hates more than the great President Barack Hussein Obama.

He’s going to harm him or he’s going to put him in prison, of this I am certain.
