...the talentless...Maya Angelou who poems sound like a cross between wet farts and Al Sharpton sermons.

Congrats for saying "the [Empress] has no clothes."

Well, how do you look in tinfoil hats? My wife looks better without hers, but I have a certain something in mine. Hey, how is this for deep political art?

That slogan always struck me as the most idiotic political slogan, ever, for all of time, without even a close competitor.

He hates America, our history, our culture and our children.

sad, but true... He was elected by a generation of Americans raised with propaganda instead of history in school. They believe that America is an oppressor nation. They personally don't want to have less or work harder, but they think you should do with less.

They need to add Clementine Hunter paintings to the walls if they want real African American culture...

I have some of her paintings and I love them.

She worked on a plantation in Louisiana and one of the guests left some painting supplies when they left. She said that she could do that. And she did!

I wouldn’t “loan” those people anything. If they’re going to take it, let them come and take it.

And here is the picture of Lenin I was telling you about children. Right next to it is the picture of Mussolini I also mentioned, and around that corner there is the one of Hugo Chavez, and Fidel Castro. We’re waiting for the one of Manuel Noriega. We’re very excited about that one. Over there is the picture of Allah. Upstairs well see portraits of a man named Soros and a man named Ayers.

There is fine African American art. But don’t expect any to be imported by the Obamas unless it’s PC. That means relatively recent and by non-artists.

Cotton Pickers and Wash Day: Primitive, in the Grandma Moses tradition, but very charming.

Burn the flag and break the crosses off the churches and the headstones of our war dead. Memorial Day? Feh, time to party.

I don’t like “that man.”

Re dogs playing poker pic —

Thanks for posting — that’s the one I was asking for!!! I’d rather see that in White House than some of what Zero proposes.

The only thing that’s going to make the black radical militants happy is if they can enslave white people for as long as they perceive their ancestors were enslaved. We’ll be like the greeks to the romans. Except, the black radical militants ain’t no Romans. Not enough discipline.

I could do what Clementine Hunter did.

I don’t mind Clementine Hunter’s art — believe the style is referred to as “naive art.”

Do we think that sort will be represented? Hmm........
