Controversial Norman Rockwell Painting Hangs Outside Oval Office

[Salt Jones]

There is no contradiction there. I bet President Bush likes that painting, too.

Too bad our country is in a state where if Bush hung that painting in the white house, he'd have been crucified.

No he wouldn't.

In fact it would be in keeping with Bush.

As a person..Bush was colorblind.

I agree, he is almost colorblind. But as president he allowed his minions to use race at their leisure.

Sorry bout that,


1. In my opinion, which is always based on fact, indisputable *facts*.
2. Oh boy here we go, is what you're thinking.
3. Obama is telling the world, he's like the little girl, walking in a anglo mans world, while his enemies hurl tomatoes, in the form of *negative political attacks*, at him, while the CIA, the anglo dudes, protect him, while the whole world, is secretly calling him, ********, which I am not.
4. Its really a shame, this negro President, hasn't gotten over his racist view of himself, and the people in this Nation, and the world in general.
5. If a person has a view he is being seen from racist eyes, when no one cares about race anymore, then what is really going on in his head, being the President, or maybe Salt Jones, is, they view themselves from the eyes who they *think* are looking at them in a racist way, which further ingrains them into the racist mindset.
6. *CWN* just gave this thread a dose of reality, while most posts here were all "I love this picture, and my PC mind is in full bloom", but then I came along and shook the fool out of everyone here, this is pure *CWN* genius!

Figures.......Sir Flamer of TexASS would chime in.

Do you know him personally? Has he told you this?

Or........as usual...........are you pulling it out of your ass like you do every morning with your boyfriend's condom?

The painting is "The Problem We All Live With." It is the most requested work at the Norman Rockwell museum in Stockbridge, Massachusetts.

Note the racial epithet that is written on the wall behind the young girl.

I think it shows Obama's level of having a persecution complex that's he's obsessing about the racial struggle from before he was born.

I suspect WHEN he gets voted out next year, we are going to hear all about the racism and injustice of it all, not his inability to achieve any notable results.

 

[pete]

A picture is worth a thousand words!
The issue I have is he divides .... so

 

[editec]

I think it is a wonderful painting depicting the struggle of the era from the perspective of a little girl. She is obviously nonthreatening to anyone yet requires guards

yeah, the guards were there because SHE was the danger

Do you know who these girls are?

Read your history, you ignorant piece of shit.

These little girls were murdered while they were attending church.

So you are still milking this 50 years later? I'm more concerned with current events.

How many kids are killed every year by the drug using, welfare collecting, gang banging inner cities dirtbags in the deep blue states?

 

[nolebrakai]

do I dare say, arguing against a Norman Rockwell painting hanging in the White House is down right aweful?.......


My gawd, can you get any more American that Rockwell? I don't think so, maybe Babe Ruth...

Oh, you mean Dr. Condoleeza Rice and Colin Powell?

[Quantum Windbag]

I think that is awsome

I thought it was awesome in 1964. Now it is a bit dated, which explains why Obama has it on the wall.

no better palce to hang a painting of such a strong message than outside the office of the leader of the free world.
Kudos to whoever decided to put it there.

Obama decided it.

I doubt it.

The way it works is his staff makes the decisions, and he just signs off on them. The president is too busy to make decisions about the paintings outside his office.

 

[Quantum Windbag]

It's a great painting and NR is a national treasure.

However I don't think it's appropriate to highlight such a time in our history in the WH.

We have far to many other things to concern ourselves with and at this point the painting is more appropriate for an activist to use.

I think that the painting hanging outside the Oval Office would be a great teachable moment for any guests (particularly national leaders) from other countries who are at the WH on official business. You wanna know what America is about? It's about overcoming adversity. It's about forming a more perfect Union just like the preamble to the Constitution states. They're not just nice-sounding words. We live by those words.

What makes you think any foreign leader will ever see that painting?

 

[Quantum Windbag]

There is no contradiction there. I bet President Bush likes that painting, too.

Bush might have been, but most of his critics weren't.

See what I mean about his critics Sallow?

The Presisdent and his wife get to choose the art for the White House, and a lot of it comes from the National Museum of Art in DC. If they like this one fine and good. I would most likely have gone for the da Vinci, myself.

What's "controversial" about it? A painting about a controversy is not the same thing as a controversial painting.

Who is objecting to the painting?

However, one thing is clear: Obama delights in stirring resentment.

Salt Peter lies.

There is no truth at all in the shit he just spewed.
