100 Daze.

"Can You Handle The Truth" will not be unveiled as scheduled today in Union Square due to the public outcry against the painting. This upsets me. While it is controversial and rather edgy and might offend little old ladies and Vatican officials, it is after all, art. Art is edgy controversial and offends little old ladies, and has been offending Vatican officials for years. The painting poses a real question quite literally so that even the least educated viewer can get something from it. I have not done any research on the true meaning behind the aforementioned picture, and suppose you could interpret said painting 1,000 ways from Sunday.

My Interpretation: Its a spin-off on Gauguin's Yellow Christ painting. The one where Christ is so huge and painted the same color as the landscape, making the connection that "Christ is in the landscape". In "The Truth" the OBammessiah poses curiously similar to Yellow Christ, and instead of being placed within the landscape, he is placed in front of a Government seal... In other words, Government and PBO the messiah are everywhere. I actually believe it to be a sarcastic look at how enamored the mass media and public is at PBO, call it the 100 DAZE... and his over zealous intentions to increase big government programs... and how he and his policies are the way the truth and the life... but nobody gets there without PBO. But I could be dead wrong.

I will check back and give you the real deal later. In any matter, the painting will not be displayed in public any time in the near future. However, PBO will surely be working hard to expand government's involvement in our daily lives... fast tracking all of his plans, and using his newest democratic senate member to move things along the road to socialism. I guess we don't need a painting to point out that Obama is in the landscape, he does a pretty good job of reminding us of that on a daily basis.
