Portrait of Dubya as an Artist

Last edited Thu Apr 23, 2015, 04:30 AM - Edit history (3)

I haven't been able to use photobucket for quite a while, so I signed up on another photo hosting site, and wanted to try it out with this bit of shrubbery. Hope you don't mind.

Now do one with him wearing an orange jumpsuit behind bars, and make it as realistic as possible

After a few weeks of that treatment, his face would look a little different when the clips were released.

When he was in office, I understood and laughed at some of the humor concerning the god-damned usurper, but I didn't laugh out loud.
I was absolutely consumed with hatred for him, everything he ever stood for, and for how he got into office.
The damage he has done to our economy and society is profound and still extant.
His refusal to deal properly with terrorism in the wake of 9/11 and his self-aggrandizement, his indifference to international standards of behavior are all stones that he'll carry around his neck right to the brink of hell.
He made cutting taxes and the undermining of civilization seem respectable.

Thanks, great to hear from you again as well!

I've been mostly lurking of late, plus I haven't been able to post photos for a while. When photobucket recently revamped its site, I was no longer able to use it. The damn thing just goes blank on my laptop after a few seconds. Something is buggy about it.

Glad you like the pic. It was a quickie cut and paste job. I could have been much harder on shrub, and crueler. He got off easy.

Maybe I'll do another, edgier version, and load it up with more stuff like dubya poop flags and such.

Great to see you again too! Thanks...

27. Dubya's painting delusion
Sun Feb 10, 2013, 07:15 PM
Feb 2013

this is for real... his delusion about a painting he had hanging in the Oval office called "The Slipper Tongue" only he renamed the painting "A charge to keep" and made it the title of his biography. The subject of the painting is about a horse thief... you can't make this stuff up any better.

thought you might be interested in this... fodder for another portrait or something

Cheers,
Agony
