wow, a nice flatter piece of art of Miss Obama. When will the neo-lib artists and photographers start churning out the ugly hateful pieces? What will they do without an outlet for their anger? Now that their cult leader is in they can't be the counter culture assholes they love to be! LOL

I think it's a beautiful portrait. I love how it captures Michelle trying to look interested while watching her husband speak for the umpteenth time as Sasha is trying not to fall asleep. Nice brush work!

Just because it's timely, doesn't make it good.

how political of them to do it now, instead of proudly showing their support beforehand. if obama lost, would it have been sent back to peyton? phonies!!!!!
