I love this painting below and think the artist has great talent. I think this painting has merit as political commentary. It is in my opinion, excellent. I agree with the artist. The president has received the most heinous criticism and even worse from a right wing extremist Republican base and beyond. The president must at times feel like he is crucified.
I say it is FREE SPEECH. How does the religious right like it when THEY think it's "blasphemy" about THEIR religion?
I do not. I do NOT think it about Christianity. I think it is about things political and I think it valid empathy for a president like no other in American history who has received a critical onslaught no matter what he does!
This is a running commentary on contemporary social, political and religious issues. From the Introduction of James Comey's book "A Higher Loyalty -- Truth, Lies and Leadership" "Man's capacity for justice makes democracy possible, but man's inclination to injustice makes democracy necessary" Reinhold Niebuhr
